USA has lost its morality, humanity and credibility across the globe because of its complicity in this ongoing genocidal war and its closeness to Pariah state of Israel which is led by a far-right fascist government. It takes time but eventually justice will prevail over evil as it did in 1945 against Hitler and his henchmen!
