Malaysians, and Other Foreigners I Might Be Able to Give a Damn About, If You Could Pay Me $389,724.70 to Care

Bar Refaeli, a key element of Israel’s foreign-policy strategy (CONTENT ADVISORY: This post contains strong language, generic xenophobia and brutal cynicism.) After having briefly remarked — “Damn.
