We've put in and replaced leaders of almost every country in the world under the "aid" blanket. We do not treat all countries equally. Justice isn't one of our priorities most of the time.

But how could they all be protesting at the same time. This is so well organized that our government had to be aware of the revenge these people seem to be seeking. I know they are fed up with the Palestine situation, but still, all at the same time?

It's the UNITED appearance I can't understand. Hell, we can't get 50 states to agree on anything.
