Republicans hate America.

 

STFU You hate the fact we're not a completely socialistic country. Your of late, you didn't build that BS is way past lame. You must work @ the DMV.  

This is a BS policy, and not sure why they're withdrawing, but has nothing to do with what actual republicans consider right.

I mean why not given the child separations. I swear this is like wrestling where the good guy is tasked with playing the heel.

Yet again you post things on which you have no earthly idea of what you're talking about. On the national stage I typically do vote republican. At the state level I often vote democrat. The last governors race for example.  

Had there been a viable alternative to Trump offered by the democrats I would have voted for them. Biden or Bernie. I've stated that several times.

He likes to spout off that the middle class is an invention of the gov't.  It's similar to Mr. Obamas you didn't build that comment.

A U.S. departure would deprive Israel of its chief defender at a forum where Israel’s human rights record comes up for discussion at every single meeting, a standing “Item 7” on the agenda.

Oops, sorry again to another ally.  The rest of the UN is going to fuck you good.

America can’t and shouldn’t participate in the UN Human Rights Council given this administration’s policies from targeting civilians in Yemen to the current separation policies at the border. 

Funny how Trump just coincidentally pushes policy like: leaving the Human Rights Council, attacking European allies like Merkel, and recommending Russia rejoin the G7 (G8), that just happens to align with Russian interests. Maybe someone should look into that.

Is this the same Human Rights Council that Saudi Arabia sits on?  Sounds like a farcical organization to begin with.  I guess y'all haven't had anything to get outraged about for a while.  Rage on.

Are you quite literally hammered right now?  What the fuck is going on in your fucked up little world?

You are beyond repair.  You're broken.  Fuck you, seek help.

I am hoping more and more Republicans will wake up, realize they were conned, and join the opposition.  Aside from the letter in parentheses next to Trump’s name, rational Republicans have very, very little in common with him.

Well, clearly we're gonna MAGA.  Then, we might MAGA some more.  And then....MAGA!

It doesn't. Now countries like China will be taking the lead. And they don't really have the moral authority to talk about human rights.

Counter-action is whatever Russia wants.

There is a guy currently looking into that but Republicans want to shut him down.

Footage has emerged of an Israeli sniper shooting a seemingly unarmed and motionless Palestinian man in the Gaza Strip, followed by exuberant whooping from an onlooker.

Israel’s military said an initial inquiry found the shooting had taken place on 22 December, when one of its soldiers injured the man in his leg during what it called violent riots.

The grainy video comes after almost  on the Israel-Gaza border in which the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) have fatally shot more than two dozen people and wounded hundreds more, according to Gazan health officials.

The short clip, which was widely shared on social media and shown on Israeli prime-time television, appears to have been filmed through a pair of binoculars. It shows several young men in the distance, metres from the fortified wire perimeter fence, including one in a pink top.

“Do you have a bullet in the barrel?” asks a voice off-camera in Hebrew. A crack is heard and the man falls suddenly. “Wow, what a video. Yes! Son of a whore!” another person says as people are seen running towards the victim to help. “Wow. They hit someone in the head,” says an off-camera voice.

In a statement released on Tuesday afternoon, the IDF said its troops were responding to “a violent riot, which included rock hurling and attempts to sabotage the security fence”. The film, less than a minute-and-a-half long, did not show stone-throwing or people damaging infrastructure.

The IDF said it had issued verbal warnings, used riot dispersal methods and fired warning shots. “After none of these were successful, a single bullet was fired towards one of the Palestinians, who is suspected of organising and leading this incident,” it said. “He was hit in the leg and injured.”

It asaid the footage was filmed, without authorisation, by a soldier who was not part of the unit that fired, adding: “[The statements made] do not suit the degree of restraint expected of IDF soldiers and will be dealt by commanders accordingly.”

Ayman Odeh, a politician from Israel’s Arab minority, said: “It is a clip that terrifies the soul, rejoicing over the taking of a life and what appears to be the execution of someone who endangered no one.”

The video was reported extensively in the Israeli press. The Jerusalem Post had compared the attack to the case of a military medic – nicknamed the “Hebron shooter” – who was  to 18 months in prison last year for killing an already incapacitated Palestinian attacker.

“Unless there is more than meets the eye, this could easily be the start of a whole new saga of an IDF soldier on trial,” the paper reported.

Israel’s army has been the focus of intense international scrutiny for its lethal response to demonstrations by Gaza’s residents along the frontier.

Soldiers killed at least a dozen Palestinians in December during confrontations in Gaza and the West Bank after Donald Trump announced the unilateral recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital on 6 December.

It's really not...well insofar as the rest of the UN isn't.

This is not a good move.
