Biden has no emotional attachment to Israel, it’s about politics

The New Yorker asks, “Why is the most powerful country in human history essentially taking orders from a country that relies on it for aid?” and then avoids the most obvious answer.

According to an Israeli government agenda decree, the cabinet is seeking approval for $154 million for the expansion of prisons.

The document also outlines plans to expand additional cells that can hold more than 1000 Palestinian prisoners in Ktzi’ot and Ofer prisons.

PS. I'm sure genocide Joe will be happy to provide the funding, no strings attached

Human Rights Watch accused Saudi guards of killing hundreds of Ethiopians

Human Rights Watch has accused Saudi Arabian border guards of systematically killing hundreds of Ethiopian economic migrants trying to cross from Yemen.

They say at least 655 people have been killed by guards since early last year. Some were shot, others killed or maimed by explosive weapons.

The organisation accused Saudi Arabia, after the UN made similar allegations last year.

Human Rights Watch has called the killings widespread and systematic, and says they could amount to crimes against humanity.

In March, the Saudi government categorically rejected any suggestion that its forces were involved in cross-border killings.
