1 年The Astonishing World of Diplomatic Double Standards!! In a stunning display of diplomatic irony, John Kirby, spokesman for the White House National Security Council, has labeled South Africa's genocide accusation against Israel as "baseless, counterproductive, and completely without merit.!!!" This statement comes as a shocking surprise to many, considering the contrasting treatment given to different nations involved in controversial affairs!!!. It seems like the White House has developed a peculiar case of selective vision!!!. While it offered harsh words to the Houthis in Yemen for obstructing cargo ships in the Red Sea, it conveniently omitted mentioning Israel's alleged involvement in the tragedy that claimed the lives of 11,000 innocent children!!!. It begs the question: Do these people live on the same planet as the rest of us?!!!!

1 年Thank you very much for the invitation from the World Bank and I will continue in the official meetings until the last consequences, with the aim of seeking the benefit of the indigenous communities. In recent years, high rates of extreme, unresolvable poverty have been generated. Why do you say that no one wants to support confinement to solve the problems of the Zion communities?
