It’s become monotonous. The ‘NY Times’ reports on U.S.-Iranian relations — and leaves out the Israel angle entirely.
Microsoft doesn’t get scrutinized as much as its peers, but the corporation provides a bold example of how corporations benefit from, and contribute to, Israeli militarism and violence.
