Rights Without Morals Are Killing Our Democracy

 

October 7, 2023 is a day that will be remembered in Israel like September 11, 2001 is remembered in America. Interesting, there is a link between the events that most Americans are not aware of. On October 7, 2001 airstrikes targeting Al-Qaeda and the Taliban had begun in Afghanistan.
