Israel is the country of screwballs of the planet. These despicable expletives deleted think they are above all laws. They give law their middle finger every day. The steal land from neighbors but wonder why neighbors hate them. They terrorize innocent Palestinian adults and children every day with impunity and seem to enjoy watching them suffer at the hands of these terrorist gangster screwballs who evidently have screws loose inside their empty heads. God didn’t feel good the day he or she made the screwballs in Israel did he? A monster was created to destroy all life and the planet earth itself. Boycott them. Buy nothing from them; sell nothing to them. Treat them as lepers to be avoided at all costs. Israel and Israels are a danger to humanity and the world.
If Russia won’t, China or Iran needs to supply advanced hypersonic cruise missiles to Syria – every time the IDF launches a missile, lobs an artillery shell, or drop a bomb into Syria, an IDF military installation is targeted. An eye for an eye is the only type of restraint that the Zionists understand, and the Syrian response would be legal under international law, unlike the Israeli aggression.
