Re: Israel and Palestine

Another schoolyard brawl with potentially lethal consequences and Biden giving Israel the green light to do what it likes shows just how clueless his administration is. Just how many fronts does the US think that it can 'fight' on? The Chinese fascist regime likely to try something against Taiwan an...
