    Why is the US so soft on Israel killing US citizens, but so harsh on… anyone else that does it?

      I mean, the Saudis did it a few years ago and we really didn’t raise much of a stink.

        Great point. Can’t risk our oil interests!

          The US makes Billions of dollars annually from Saudi Arabia and Israel, so they don’t care when either of them murder, torture or rape people even when it’s children.

            Oof, I’d forgotten about that.

            It seem like the “American lives” bit is a front for already having a reason to do something but not wanting to admit it. Thought that’s just normal international diplomacy world wide.
