If I owned Hell and Indiana, I would rent out Indiana and live in Hell.
In less than 10 hours after the hospital blast, Isreal released a torrent of evidence they didn't do it. Video, film, conversations, informants, ect. But I'm suppose to believe they were in the dark about the Octobet attack? Even after advanced warning from the U.S and Egypt. That dog won't hunt monsignor.

You have to keep saying it because it's not true. I've known artists who have seen their work stolen. Until then I never truly understood the hurt it causes them.

But you take that same mindset and scale it down, and now you are hurting real people.
