WELL NOW, would you look at that? A massive, 4-YEAR-LONG study of NEARLY 30 MILLION people in France found that individuals who received a COVID-19 mRNA vaccine had a 74% LOWER risk of death from severe COVID-19 compared to unvaccinated individuals and ZERO increased risk of all-cause mortality.

The Holocaust was a genocide. 25 percent of the Jewish victims were children. In Gaza 30 percent of the victims are children. This is not counting how many children Israel has sliced up into amputees or other unspeakable horrors visited upon them. The sequel has more gore.

The politics of Israel have shifted so much that even a moderate in Kansas (who could beat the Republican) is open to cutting some weapons: "I don't want them to drop the bombs that my taxes paid for on innocent people." Doesn't call it genocide, but concedes Israel's "actions feel genocidal."
