Great wrap up Ryan!
I think each of these stories could lead the news on any given day.
Israel's refusal to be investigated comes as no surprise as is the US's continuous protection at the UN (vetoes, etc). They should be held accountable just like any other nation who attacks unarmed civilians.
The hypocrisy of the US and Israel is so thick sometimes it's hard to even begin to respond to.

They strike Syria because of alleged use of chemical weapons on civilians without evidence to back-up their claims but then they massacre unarmed protesters and act as if they responded in self defense. Unreal.

The story out of Chile is also unbelievable but also unsurprising at the same time. It's an international scandal that's not going away, it's systematic in the Catholic church.

I often wonder if a lot of this abuse could have been avoided if they just would have allowed priests to marry.

cheers man, thanks
