This will be the news that causes the USA to finally tell Israel to stop, I’m sure.
Israel is a pack of lunatics.
I have bad news about the USA.
I have worse news about China and Russia.
The world really isn't great right now, is it?
Did you know that the prisoner-per-capita ratio in the US is higher than both Russia and China? In fact, the total number of incarcerated people (ie people in prisons and jails) in the US is 2.25 million. In Russia that number is 433,006 and in China it's estimated at 1.7 million.
Combined that's 2.13 million.
Those two "worse" countries combined don't have as many people incarcerated people as the US.
They even have an entire museum!
A pack or war criminals.
After they just passed a bill to give them more money? I can't tell if this is sarcasm or not but I certainly hope so.
My feeling is the US feels they are too committed now to stop and just hope that Israel will stop by itself soon.
I'm not saying I like it, but it definitely feels like that...
