Fun seeing this after ICC pushed an arrest warrant for Putin. 😂

Anyone else notice “Allies” was quickly followed by the naming of “Israel” in Pompeo’s policy announcement ?
Was this policy prompted by the recent bombings in Gaza or the situation in Afghanistan?

It's time America faces the truth. America is the greatest war criminal, yet never gets held accountable. This exceptionalism will not last forever.

Wow what a double standard world we live in. But remember one thing Karma has a way of getting you sooner or later. And remember one thing always weather you believe in GOD or not GOD or Nature always gives judgement sooner or later judgement will be there. No Crime and Injustice has ever gone unanswered in face of Earth. God will have last laugh and he will have his Judgement one way or another. Believe in Lords or Nature's judgement. Keep believing no matter which God.

Kim from Durango has video tapes of all the male Senators' 40th Birthday Party events. Maybe the ICC should give her a call when prosecuting these Senators in court.
