“There is no other country in the world that has a monthly meeting on the (Security) Council’s agenda going back decades,” the US envoy said, describing the “unfair amount of focus on Israel in the UN” as “problematic”.

Asked about recognising the Palestinian State, Thomas-Greenfield gave an evasive response as she claimed that “a state has certain responsibilities for its people, and I do not believe the Palestinians, as they exist right now, have all of the elements to give it statehood.

She also bluntly responded to a question about the arrest warrant issued for Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, by the International Criminal Court (ICC) Prosecutor, Karim Khan, and said: “We have been clear that we have a problem with the Court’s ruling.”

“Well, let me be clear: We will not arrest him,” she stressed.

      Yes. Behind the Bastards just did a two parter on liberal media’s role in the rise of the Nazi Party.

      Tbf to them, they were quite active in calling out Japan’s actions in China (one guess as to why Japan wasn’t allowed to get away with it but Germany was btw).

      It’s a funny quirk of history that the general public knowledge of these atrocities has reversed over the years.
