    I remember this, it doesn’t seem as long ago as the dates (correctly) tell it to have been.

    @MikeDunnAuthor Things haven’t changed and this 2 state BS is still 2 state BS touted by the governments who protect Israel from answering to this.

    it's really sad to learn how long this has been happening, and how long the US has been bank-rolling it all.

    @MikeDunnAuthor I’m surprised the IDF didn’t ask for sympathy for the poor bulldozer. It probably had to be cleaned afterwards. Poor thing.
