The US traditionally blocks actions against its close ally Israel at the United Nations.

    Just in time for Israel’s latest strike of two Yemeni newspaper offices today. 25 dead journalists.

    And we are supposed to give a shit about Charlie fucking Kirk.

      Don’t deviate from the subject of international relations. This is meant as a serious medium on that subject and nothing else. There are plenty of communities where you can discuss Charlie Kirk.

        I’m sorry, but here we are getting brow beaten by the US government about the wrongs of political violence whilst they kill Venezuelan civilians and support Israel’s rampant murder of journalists across the middle east. The hypocrisy is astounding

          The topic is about relations between different countries, whether it is US sanctions, support of other countries in whatever actions they do, or even shooting a boat on international waters, those are inline with the topic. Charlie Kirk is not an international affairs topic, even if he openly supported Israel.

          There is no “we” here. Nobody mentions Charlie Kirk, or domestic political violence, except you. This is not about domestic issues. Take it to the appropriate forums. If you want to discuss the Israel lobby, and how they impact relations between countries, both directly, and indirectly, that is appropriate.
