AT LEAST 20 SCHOOLS AND 10 HOSPITALS BOMBED per UNICEF? A sports complex targeted killing 18 children as they were playing basketball?

Was it the most moral military in the world or the one run by the Department of War Crimes? Will Trump claim again that "Iran did it?

I hope one day those responsible experience the same fear, horror and loss of their homes as those 1,300 and 100,000.

Maybe in the next world. Justice seems hard to come by in this one.

During the Dignified Transfer.

He's afraid to show his multiplying bald spots exposed by the outdoors.

His vanity is more important to him than respect for the fallen in his illegal war of choice. Every death is on him and his own can't come soon enough!!
