32. The world has been quite naive and foolish to trust vicious, ruthless psychopath leaders.
Thu Jul 24, 2025, 04:53 AM

Sacrosanct facilities, international law and custom, mean nothing to Trump, Putin, Netanyahu.
They will stop at nothing to get what they want.
Including raping, starving, killing women and children.
And those delivering aid and assistance.

I am a retired mental health professional and come from a military family.

You do not trust a ruthless psychopath to do the right thing. They are very dangerous.
And you don't put untrained women and children in a damn combat zone when up against a determined psychopath.

The real story is why the world lets these psychopaths commit war crimes and destroy the world.
And why the world keeps trusting them to do the right thing.
