Cognitive dissonance at extremum.
Unquestioningly support one of two militaristic authoritarian #theocracies, both lacking in #equaljustice and the #RuleOfLaw, both acting against #humanrights and outside of international agreements, including those for weapons of mass destruction?
Both would wage war in defense of their political ruling order.
