How egregious do US violations of its supposed allies’ sovereignty have to get for those allies to stop downplaying the shocking nature of its actions and tell it to take a hike?

But I'd be happy to understand this particular one. Perhaps I'm wrong.

Today's diaspora crisis? But without naming what it is. I'm not aware of a crisis of a scale to call other than that which apparently can't be named

At least 25 countries have decided to suspend package deliveries to the United States, as concern grows over the impact of U.S. President Donald Trump’s looming tariffs, a UN body said Tuesday. www.ctvnews.ca/world/articl...

Dare to criticize the country of Israel and beware of being accused of anti-Semitism The country of Israel, not the faith, is committing immoral actions. To say this is not anti-Semitism. To not call this out could be considered to condone such actions

I pointed out that the people and the country are NOT the same That's actually the opposite of being antisemitic It is perfectly valid and required to call out the illegal and immoral actions of the country but you seem to be afraid to do so. That's unfortunate given your position of influence

Sorry but I don't understand. Israel for instance is a country not a people as I see it. The people haven't been committing genocide but the country has been. What crisis? The failure to accommodate your neighbours? Or the continued occupation of the west bank I sure hope it can't get worse
