different laws for different people

Only the most naive of us really believes that we're all equal under the law, regardless of where we live.

In the states, OJ S. and Michael J. were declared innocent, even though the evidence, except to their fans and juries, showed something else.

In Israel, we also have seen left wing and pro Disengagement politicians get away with major corruption when those at the other end of the political spectrum are held to stricter standards. And jailed teenage Arab terrorists were able to do their state final exams, while the Jewish anti-Disengagement teens were forbidden.

Apparently, in America, there's also different tax law for different types of millionaires. It'll break your heart to read this, nebich.

  2. Not real justice that's for sure. Very perverse reasoning.
