      Its infuriating that so many European countries are gleefully still sending aid to Israel while Israel and the US are squeezing Europe dry and Russia is building for a new major offensive against NATO, potentially without US support.

      Hopefully the new Dem congress can end the war with Iran ASAP and reinforce NATO. And if Santa thinks we’ve been good, defund Israel all together.

      I’m from one of the listed countries and I’ve seen people, some of them minors, end up much worse than the lad in the picture from an ‘encounter’ with our very own police, whose wages are stolen from our work, who work for the people doing this investigations. The victims had to pay fines and/or do community work, the pigs got out scotch-free, maybe even a short paid (by us) vacation. So yes, you are right, these politicians, judges, prosecutors… don’t have much interest in punishing any torture at all, or they’ll start at home, they’re just posturing.
