Secretary of State Marco Rubio has waived a restriction on $320 million in military aid to Egypt that had been previously withheld over human rights concerns, citing Egypt’s help in dealing with Iran since the conflict began earlier this year.

    I’m sorry, but we are instead arming and financing Israel and Saudi Arabia, both of which coincidentally have universal healthcare.

      I don’t know if you could call their systems universal, there are a lot of people in those countries that can’t access the systems. You could probably say universal healthcare for citizens, and in Saudis case a select group of citizens.

        They say that they have universal healthcare for citizens, and the people that live there say that they have universal healthcare.

        That’s all I know.

        I don’t think ANYONE has truly “universal healthcare”, as that would mean that they provide service to the universe, which is a lie. They don’t even care for the entire population of the earth. madness
