We all know that if Russian forces had burned alive dozens of refugees, including little kids, there would be justified screams of outrage and disgust from Western leaders and media outlets.
It would be used as key evidence that Putin is one of the great monsters of our age.
This is what it felt like when JVP members told me for years they were upset about “antifascists burning in the Odesa Trade Union.” Said “antifacists” were literal Russian Nazis from abroad & started the fire themselves. They took the word of RT over Jewish voices in Odesa.
no offense but i just don’t think there’s any “innocent” “israeli” citizen and im tired of tiptoeing around that subject and pretending like there is some mythical exception to whom i owe some reverence or obeisance
Antisemitism is when you protest with flares and host a YouTube show with a Jewish co-host now. I like how this Grayzone affiliate implies the war started in 2022 and not 2014. While perpetuating Russian fascist lies about the Odesa trade union fire.
Supporting a local winery that raises awareness of what Ukrainian soldiers are going through to stop a genocide & keep my friends & relatives alive? Beautiful. People have to ration power right now & millions are still trapped under a brutal occupation. She’s cool.
I’m sorry is this a Ukrainian standing in Palmyra, Syria or a Russian? Russian planes are still bombing Aleppo daily. It is not Ukrainians committing war crimes daily in Libya & aiding Sudanese death squads. Or helping the Ayatollahs in Iran and drilling for oil in Iraq.
@JihadalHaqq
The exact opposite is used against Ukraine. The main propaganda in America & Russia against Ukraine is that it is too tolerant of homosexuality because of Pride parades, openly LGBT soldiers, & a repurposing a parody video of Zelenskyy dancing in latex. That we’re “gay Nazis.”

Considering the history of Ukraine, do you think the concept of death by starvation is something to bring up so callously?
Reminder that Fazi has been a consistent genocide denier who supports the well documented mass murder, systematic torture & rape that comes with Russia’s brutal occupation. The only thing these signatories deserve are concrete shoes.

If you don’t know how popular Tolkien was in Brezhnev era USSR please stop talking. “Orc” isn’t directed or implied to be any specific ethnicity or religion. Both Ukrainian Muslims & volunteers from Chechnya, Azerbaijan, etc have given their lives. Russia embraces Crusader image.

Which siege are you referring to? I don’t need to rely on “Western propaganda” I can ask my own family & friends that watched their cities destroyed.
@MarkSeddon1962
Zelenskyy’s “vocal supporting” has been supporting a two-state solution, voting against settlements at the UN, showing empathy to both Israeli & Palestinian civilians. Giving grain to multiple surrounding countries to help them not further destabilize.
Antiwar voices are now people who contact the embassy of the belligerent nation who then takes you on a curated tour of filtration camps (which the UN has recognized as being sites of systematic torture & rape) and says everyone is being treated fine.
The historical repression of antiwar voices in Canada, often twinned with red-baiting, is resurfacing amid the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war. This resurgence marks a worrying return to stifling dissent and limiting freedom of expression.

likes to mock people who partner with Ukrainians to raising awareness of what it’s like to defend against a genocidal war of conquest. The company is right. Americans are becoming too desensitized to the reality of daily bombing & Russian occupation.

And they absolutely tried to make the world care that the 2014 Olympics was being held on the very land they were cleansed from! While Russia & Assad bombed them in Syria.

I see this comment a lot and I truly don’t think most of the world understands how much russians hate russian Jews. They hate them inside the country and they hate them even more for having left. Most join Ukrainian + other Soviet Jewish relatives.

How can you hope to achieve a two-state solution if we don’t hold even one unit accountable for well documented human rights violations in the West Bank? This is the want the Leahy Law was designed to do.

You betray America and all of her allies in service of personal greed. Your loyalty to Trump above all else is clear. A mankurt who wraps herself in Blue & Yellow. All of the peoples of every nationality & creed who sacrificed for a Ukraine free from tyranny will haunt you.
@AaronBastani
The one thing that unites Free Syrians, Ukrainians, Israelis, Iranians, Palestinians & so many more is seeing how far you & Novara are willing to go to mock our pain for a cheap dopamine rush.
Your regular reminder that ANSWER/PSL is run by anti-Ukraine Assadists & the tiny sect of Haredi Jews in this clip are Neturei Karta who are backed by the Islamic Republic. They do not care about democracy, & human rights. They’re apologists for authoritarianism & bigotry.
Praising the Houthis with “Yemen, Yemen make us proud” is pretty telling for people who spend half their time trying to convince the rest of us that they definitely don’t support terrorist organizations.

It’s evil to defend oneself during genocide? You think LGBTQ+ Ukrainians defending their homeland from an army that does mass rape & beheadings makes them evil? Your notions of solidarity are performative if you’d sacrifice 40 million people out of propaganda & Western privilege.
Not surprised the person who wrote this had this to say about reports coming out of Bucha & other then newly liberated areas north of Kyiv. Apparently a child recalling the sexual abuse they endured under occupation is just too salacious.

Countries as far away as Pakistan, North Korea and Cuba have sent expeditionary forces to fight for Palestine on top of 10 Arab countries stretching from Morocco to Iraq and that’s just between 67’ and 73’. With the largest armies all armed by the Soviet Union at its height.

@erictlee
If you care about Jews like me who lost family in pogroms from all sides in that war. Then I ask you to stop finding any excuse to not take a stand to aid Jews & other citizens of Ukraine who are being killed in a genocide now. Russians are killing our families right NOW in 2023
Odesa on Yom Kippur. It is hard to be in PST thinking about all the families who are already fasting and are away from their phones unaware their loved ones are under a brutal attack. They strike civilians on any holiday because they target civilians every day.

I have no problem with russian neo-Nazis fighting the russian fascist invaders in shaping operations that will lead to successful Ukrainian counteroffensives that bring the war to an end faster saving tens of thousands of Ukrainian soldiers & liberating civilians under occupation
Says a lot about the Netanyahu government that through all the growing rifts with Europe they still send more arms to Azerbaijan while refusing to lift third party transfer of European produced SPIKEs to Ukraine which would be much needed good press.

Guy who thought Zhirinovsky was not extreme enough in the early 90s. Also advocated to invade Kazakhstan. Yeah sure great time to make a movie about him being a poor stateless writer. My dad met him in LA in 84’ and said “he was filled with envy at everyone.”
@KvotheTheArcane
Saying Israel is more isolated now than in 47-48’ when there was a UN & US arms embargo is ridiculous. Even if the entire West stopped buying from or selling arms to Israel, it would still have India.
NEW: We went to Mar-a-Lago in late June to talk to former President Trump about taxes, tariffs, the Federal Reserve, pardons, Taiwan and who could be Treasury Secretary. Have at it —

I think when an American novel by a world famous author gets published in Ukrainian during the middle of a big war and printed in a city under heavy bombardment 39 years after it was written it’s safe to say it isn’t some hidden gem.
@Madame_Ennui
Do they think during an actual revolution that our funding to USAID, WHO, UNICEF, and all other forms of foreign aid would not experience a shock? Tens of millions would be plunged into famine & conflict.
@SpaghettiKozak
That account also posted this map of pogroms and said clearly it is a non-russian phenomenon. Ignoring the fact it was the Russian Empire who created & enforced the boundaries of the Pale of Settlement & all the ways they incited them.
I have quite different politics from Melania but to say she is an antisemite or a neo-Nazi is absurd. Russian forces are bombing Holocaust memorials, synagogues, & community centers. Ukrainians of all ethnic & religious backgrounds (including Russians) are fighting together.
@rynkrynk
Foreign Minister Eli Cohen (Bibi’s FM) has been to Ukraine and multiple members of the Knesset. Mossad director Barnea has likely gone more than once quietly. Zelenskyy is far more popular at this moment than Bibi both in Israel & Jewish diaspora. Even among Likud voters.

You know what turns people into child soldiers & becomes an easy tool for radicalization around the globe? Watching people starve to death. Well documented. It also further normalizes the practice against people you do support. There is no justification from any angle.

Valdai Club member Seamus Milne who ran cover for the Russian invasion of Crimea and Bashar Al-Assad is your idea of a credible source on Syria?
