Trump threatens monstrous war crime
On top of the mountain of war crimes committed by the US over the decades, and its complicity in the war crimes of Israel in Gaza and the Lebanon, Trump is about to launch yet another monumental and monstrous war crime – the destruction of “a whole civilisation”, that is, Continue Reading
