Israel's foreign minister says he will "ask American Congress" to examine Turkey's steps against #Israel and to 'impose sanctions accordingly'.

"Erdogan is once again sacrificing the economic interests of the people of Turkey for his support of the #Hamas murderers in #Gaza who raped, murdered and desecrated the bodies of women, girls, adults and burned children alive. Israel will not submit to violence and extortion and will not condone the unilateral violation of the trade agreements and will take parallel measures against Turkey that will harm the Turkish economy. I ordered to prepare another list of products that Israel will prevent Turkey from exporting and in addition, I ordered to contact countries and organizations in the US, stop investments in Turkey and prevent the import of products from Turkey, and to our friends in the American Congress to examine the violation of the boycott laws and impose sanctions on Turkey accordingly."

Who wants to bet that #GenocideJoe is going to take some actions against #Turkey in the coming days?

#Amazon's bestselling "bitter lemon" energy #drink was bottled #delivery #driver #piss

Source: https://pluralistic.net/2023/10/20/release-energy/

The company enacted a strict zero tolerance policy for drivers returning to the depot with bottles of piss in their vans.

That's where Butler comes in: the roads leading to Amazon delivery depots are lined with bottles of piss thrown out of delivery vans by drivers who don't want to lose their jobs, which made harvesting the raw material for "Release Energy" a straightforward matter.
