"Meanwhile, the US economy sinks even further into the abyss, putting the livelihoods and lives of millions at risk."

But the downturn means less consumption, less pollution, less of that imaginary global warming. The mostest, biggest threat facing mankind!

Right?

In his last interview, recorded with Hamas TV on Wednesday, Rayan was as defiant as ever about confronting the Israeli military.

smithinjapan:"Iraq was a lost cause from the get-go, and the attempts to form a coup seem to be growing..."

Some good among all the bad:
