for proof of guilt or trial. This is called *"War on Terrorism"*.

Syria and Iran". this is called: *"Axis of Evil"

Rule # 8: When you say "Israel", never say "supported by the USA, the UK and
other European countries", for people (God forbid) might believe this is not
an equal conflict.
This is called *"Helping our Friends"*.
Rule # 9: When it comes to Israel, don't mention the words "occupied
territories" , "UN resolutions" , "Geneva conventions" .

side over the Israeli side, you must be a very dangerous anti-Semite.
