Israel is preparing to shoot protesters in Gaza again, in case they protest against the transfer of the US embassy to Jerusalem.

The extremism and racism of US evangelicals could split their alliance with Catholics.

The cheater is negotiating with China to exempt a Chinese company from the effect of US sanctions.

A bogus report claims that 20% of homeless youth in the US are "victims of human trafficking", but the true figure was half that.

Looking at the full report, we can see that this figure is deceptive. The study followed a lying law by defining "victim of human trafficking" (and "victim of sex trafficking") to include "doing prostitution while under 18 years old."

It appears that the "victims of sex trafficking" were 17%, but only 7% were actually trafficked into sex. That suggests that the real fraction that were victims of some kind of trafficking was 10%, not 20%.

Even 10% coerced into some sort of work is a big problem, but let's not dishonestly double the figure.
