    Ok, you got me, only 90% of the countries in the region are exponentially worse, two of them are just worse on a strictly linear scale.

    Yes I think countries that routinely decapitate gay people, beat women to death with rocks for not wearing the right hat, condone or at the very least ignore the rape of women and children, and cut peoples hands off for shoplifting, whose atrocities only can’t be called genocide because it’s the same ethnic group killing each other, are worse than Israel, didn’t realize that was such a hot take. I’m not saying Israel is good, I’m just saying the US, along with most of Europe, has chosen to back the one country in the region that at least pretends to have western values.
