After Israeli settlers killed 19-year-old United States citizen Nasrallah Abu Siyam in the occupied West Bank last week, the US Department orf State said it “has no higher priority than the safety and security of Americans”.

But, as the number of US citizens killed by Israel continues to mount, rights advocates say Washington’s failure to ensure accountability is driving a deadly cycle of impunity.

As long as he's of arab and muslim origins his death means nothing at all. You know actually even if he were white, his death won't mean anything, because jizzrael has killed whites before and there was never any accountability. They are above international law.

They killed Charlie Kirk and got away with it, them or their proxies/allies in the US, and the US covered for them just like they cover for them killing US citizens over there.

And US marines. And most probably 9/11, and a lot more.

US won’t do anything against Israel until all the old pedophiles in power are dead. If they say anything out of line, Israel will release the dirt they had Epstein gather on them.

Compromised US congress cannot hold their employer accountable

Master more like it, in the sense that Congress is in a gimp suit in the corner jerking off while, well we don't have to go into it, it's dark.

I don’t see how anyone who already isn’t appalled by the genocide, is going to start to care because an American with a “brown” sounding name is also killed.

I don’t care any more than I already do which is I think all of it, whatever care is I have all of it for Palestine or any other oppressed peoples.

I’m editing to add: I really hate that I used the term brown sounding name because it feels icky and racist but it’s what I’ve come to expect from my less kind countrymen.

The NYTimes even wrote an article on this one, I didn't read it I can't stomach their lying coverage of anything related to this, they won't even cover epstein accurately, presumably to protect Israel. Israel's final solution for Gaza then the west bank gave them an identity crisis, and the nytimes now identifies as a piece of shit. They are fascist, and that explains why they also surrendered to the administration and haven't broken any stories either.
