Creeps exist everywhere, but taking advantage of people escaping a conflict zone like this (and like women and children in Afghanistan) deserve triple punishment.

Not true, this was a joke. Its a karma farming technique used in certain sub reddits. Source - I talked to the user about it.

Ok, I didnt understand your post properly

There have been numerous attempts to curb growth of Israel but it only takes one blocking vote by a permanent UN member to stop a motion. Those permanent members are China, France, Russia (inherited from USSR), UK, and USA. Since there is a historically close link between USA and Israel, USA blocks actions against Israel. But this itself does not make the organization USA-centric, and it's unrelated to why Russia was suspended from the group.

No, more like "you are suspended for a while, because of an aggressive military invasion of your neighbor and causing hundreds and hundreds of civilian deaths"

He said he believed it and clarely noted it was just his opinion.

There is so much fiction in crypto, that it would seem reasonable to have a little crypto in fiction :P
