FURIOUS Denmark CLASSIFIES USA as MAJOR SECURITY THREAT
#MeidasTouch host #BenMeiselas reports on #Denmark issuing a #SecurityThreatAssessment that views #Trump as a major threat at the same time Trump is attacking the #InternationalCriminalCourt and demanding he get “#immunity” from his #WarCrimes.
Humans provide massive amounts of food to wildlife, which may spread infectious diseases. Walsman et al. use math to show that food from humans may cause diseases of wildlife to evolve higher lethality.

The leaked photographs are the largest single collection of images of murdered Syrian prisoners ever obtained by a news outlet. More than 10,200 individual prisoners were photographed, with up to 177 photos taken in a single day.
The photos were sent to military courts, where a judge would sign off on the deaths, essentially granting members of the #Assad regime judicial #immunity for their #crimes, according to a former military officer.
