    When the media tries speaking for the people, always take it with a grain of salt

    The US response to the Israeli strike on the Iranian consulate in Damascus was to veto the UN drafted resolution to condemn it…The US has always acted as Israel’s shield within the UN Security Council.

    So I guess we might see irans actual neculear weapons program progress.

    Its weird how Israel's consistent violation of international law is just ignored as if this aggression has nothing to do with anything. Hopefully this is finally coming to an end and Israel will be held accountable for their crimes.

    Maybe you could have asked the speaker Democrat Mike Johnson what long form for the taxes & taxpayer number form ? We the people can file for dependents on Ukraine, Israel, and the Philippines & the O"Biden million invaders.

    No one with any insight can take any of this seriously given its coming from an official American new source.
  • There is a word, KARMA. It is a type of punishment, that someone or something. Has brought up on itself, for bad acts +interest. It seems the Israeli leadership does not believe in this word, because they just continue to stock up. On bad acts. It is one of a few 100% things, that exist. It is a binding, self-balancing force.
