In the past, Israel has supported Ukraine at the United Nations.

Israel has voted against a United Nations General Assembly resolution calling to reaffirm Ukraine’s territorial integrity, rejecting a strongly worded condemnation of Russia’s invasion of its neighbor on the third anniversary of the war.

Eighteen countries voted against the resolution, 93 voted in favor, and 65 abstained.

      Israel is not a country it is a colonization project maintain by weapon supply from the US along with being a tax and pedophile heaven for people.

        Russia at least had a legitimate defence case with Ukraine. Ukrainians in new territories are given full citizen rights - Palestinians can only dream. Israel is a blatant colonization project killing people for space.

          Sure, they did, when Ukraine started a war with Russia right? Oh wait, that’s not what happened, Russia invaded Ukraine. Stop with the colonization excuse bullshit. Israel and russia are the same

      I dont think people in the US understand or even care about Israel/Russia relations. They also dont understand Israeli antipathy against christians. Americans just think whatever the owners of their favorite media outlets tells them to think. You almost have to admire whoever put that sort of brainwashing system together over time. Its horrifically awful, but well crafted and effective brainwashing. Chefs kiss.

      More likely Israel wants Russia to cut links with Iran so they can bomb them without interference

    There must be a lot of soul-searching taking place in Berlin tonight after Germany ended up voting against Israel at the UN.

      I am actually quite relieved about it, as it demonstrates that germany is not just appeasing israel by the bon mot of “never again”. It is actually taken seriously. Despite a bunch of eastern germans voting for neo-nazis because they are undereducated, economically disadvantaged and clearly living in an information bubble.

        Euro-Maga, basically…

        Fuck propaganda has done a number on these people, exploiting their anger by pointing it to the wrong people.

    So I guess we are the new axis of evil.

    Sorry about this guys. No hard feelings when you split us in to East/West America.

    Off to make a fake wall to hide my neighbor’s family from the Gesta… from ICE.

    I’m still hoping Trump’s doing some 4D chess thing here where he’s playing good cop while the rest of the world is playing bad cop. I like to think he’s in the phone to Putin like “I know everyone else hates you but I’m your mate, now let’s talk about a deal”. I’m not a fan of his or anything but I don’t think he’s stupid. You don’t get to be the President of the most powerful country in the world if you’re stupid. He may be a total bastard but he’s not stupid.

      No, he’s stupid. He was stupid in the 80’s and nothing had changed except now he’s got dementia. We all saw during COVID lockdowns when he mused about injecting bleach or disinfectant in people to clean the COVID out?

      And for the record, so is Elon Musk. Anytime he talks about something, it may sound smart to a lot of people but people with subject-matter expertise on the topic immediately recognize how stupid he is.

      Unfortunately for the world, all of Trump’s cabinet picks are pretty stupid besides Scott Bissent, JD Vance, and maybe Marco Rubio.

        Elon Musk is like Dan Brown’s books, what he says can only seem smart if you know nothing about the subject

      Pretty sure he is exactly that though, venal and stupid. Putin bought a president on the cheap.

      You’re fooling yourself. He’s worse than stupid, he’s demented. And a rapist. Among other character failures.

      This is a goddamned disgrace.

      I’m sorry friend, but this is what cognitive dissonance looks like.

      It’s an attempt at resolving the conflict between a belief (that Trump isn’t that bad, that a president has merit, that things will be ok) and reality, where everything we see him do is increasingly harmful, short sighted or self serving.

      Actions speak louder, please re-evaluate your beliefs based on what you see him do.
