Using religion as a justification for killing people is religious terrorism, no matter if it’s ISIS, the Israeli government, or the U.S. government. It’s religious terrorism.

Does Jared Kushner know what a conflict of interest is?
In Israel and elsewhere, the line between his diplomacy and quest for wealth is fuzzy at best.
