One thing that never gets mentioned is that Israel is the only state in the Middle East with nuclear weapons and it has refused to sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).

This is an insult to 12-years old kids. They have more common sense than these white supremacists
Okay so let me get this straight, a oligarch country that elected a suspected pedophile & known rapist over his Christian values, and an illegally nuclear genocidal apartheid nation that keeps electing war criminals to do war crimes, those are the good guys because they bombed a primary girls school
