There's a reason we don't see Ukrainian activists burning down Russian cultural centers worldwide, even though they certainly have plenty of reasons to do so. Meanwhile, 'anti-Zionist' activists are setting fire to Jewish ambulances, vandalize Jewish businesses and synagogyes need 24/7 protection

“if Russians come here for the third time, it won’t just be the end of our statehood, Latvia as a country, our sovereignty, it will be the end of Latvian ethnicity … they will kill us all,” [the head of Latvia’s State Security Service, Normunds] Mežviets said."

How can people defend Russians who commit genocide and invade Europe yet claim that they are not responsible for their actions? Meanwhile, Jewish people are blamed collectively for defending themselves and are met with monstrous hate at exhibitions, film festivals, and music events.

"We’re approaching a moment where discussion about Russia is not about countering disinformation to defend democracy.
But about how to “fuck Russia up,” because in a war you need to to beat the psychological daylight out of our enemy, not just defend democracy."

The sad thing about this attack — which is not a singular event — is that the 'pro-Palestinians' who carried it out are nothing but useful idiots, who have been gaslighted into fighting imaginary evil Jewish windmills in the Holy Land instead of the real giant: Russian fascism, which threatens to devour Europe.

"I have seen Ukrainian authors published in left-wing media, but mostly in English-language outlets. And given Europe’s consolidation and its crucial role in supporting Ukraine, it is extremely important that such articles begin to appear in other European languages as well."

These shocking excerpts from a new book by a German left-wing politician speak volumes about the German Social Democrat Party's deep-rooted Russia connections. The party's anti-Israel and anti-Ukraine policies, straight out of the Soviet playbook, are still dominant today, causing it to lose voters.

For many reasons, your reply that a company's status as an arms producer makes it a legitimate target is disturbing. Is it not absurd to condone violence against people who produce weapons that are currently desperately needed to defend Ukrainian men, women, and children against an invasion by people who deny Ukrainians the right to exist and want to exterminate them? This thinking is particularly absurd because I am certain you would not apply it to yourself if you needed defense.

In 2022, the Ukrainian Armed Forces requested foreign training, but European nations were slow to respond. Now, as the AFU are moving away from foreign training due to the inexperience of Western instructors, Ukrainians are hosting the top NATO command to teach the alliance about modern combat.

The Ukrainian city of Mariupol is cut off from the world and trapped under Russian occupation. It's people have been displaced, silenced and killed by the Russians. While the world's attention is diverted by the genocide libel, the killing of up to 100,000 Ukrainians in Mariupol alone remains largely unknown.

Yanis Varoufakis's accusation that his country is a "satellite" of both Israel and the U.S., while simultaneously praising Turkey's dictator, Erdogan—who regularly stokes hatred of Israel to pander to his Sunni base—as a "mediator," reveals Varoufakis to be an anti-Semite of the highest order.

As the president of a country with a traumatic history of multiple Russian invasions, I would not travel to endorse the election campaign of Russia's trojan horse in the EU. Especially not when the right-wing Russian lobby in the EU Parliament holds a rally on the day of my projected visit.

Mirroring the war crimes of their Palestinian proxies, the Iranian Basijis are now exploiting the Red Crescent.

"What we are watching, then, is not a regime demonstrating strength. It is a regime in its collapse phase, still able to produce violence and surface function, but no longer able to hide the fact that this is the stage it prepared for when the center began to break."

This CNN clip exemplifies a widespread problem that also occurs in much of the European public broadcasting. Sharing Iranian regime propaganda and imagery without context leads the audience to believe in the regime's supposed invincibility narrative and draw the wrong conclusions.

The German foreign minister assumes that the achievement of his countrymen, who hid behind window curtains when the Berlin Wall fell peacefully in 1989, will not be matched by the courageous Persians who openly fight the Iranian Revolutionary Guard to their deaths.

Current state of the russified German mind:
The youth organization of the left-wing German party in Lower Saxony passed a resolution that outright condemns Zionism.A known neo-Nazi congratulated them online. Eric Uden, an activist from the same group who hates Israel, calls the neo-Nazi a fascist.

Latvia has shut down Russian state media and so-called Russian "opposition" outlets. However, Russians have found new ways to flood the zone. For example, BBC Russian now hosts videos of occupiers complaining that everyone was "friendly" when they were the "master race" and expressing how humiliating it feels to learn Latvian now. Damn the BBC!

An RSF investigation into the pro-Russian 'International Reporters' group exposed the activities of the Franco-Russian propagandist Adrien Bocquet. He is one of several pro-Russian propagandists known to move back and forth between Russia and other EU countries while waging an information war against the EU.

Stas Olenchenko formulated a possible explanation for the Western European and US American preference for Russian 'anti-regime stories', which can also be applied to the European reaction to the Russian war and the war against Russia's allies.👇

Latvian ice hockey players seem to be more intelligent than their Western European and US counterparts. Ralfs Freibergs reminds the world not to allow Russia back into international sports, appealing to US journalists to start asking the right questions, such as asking Russian players how they feel about their countrymen occupying other nations, adding that they might be surprised by the answers.

🔴The Israeli Defence Forces have confirmed that Ali Larijani, Iran's Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council, who recently taunted US president Trump by saying that he had to 'pay the price', has himself been held to account by the Israelis for his numerous crimes against his own people.

President Zelenskyy issued a statement in Persian, reminding people that the Iranian regime had repeatedly lied to the international community about its collaboration with the fascist Russian invaders, effectively fighting alongside them.

One element that could help guarantee safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz is lying in plain view:

Unfortunately, the Germans are going full circle back to 2022, when they should be anticipating the possible consequences of this attitude for NATO.

In authoritarian left-wing circles, antisemitism often takes the form of projective anti-Zionism, which is "justified" as anti-imperialist, anti-nationalist or postcolonial. Liberal leftists disagree with forming an alliance with Islamists against Israel and the West, which is why they didn't vote for the populist Zohran Mamdani.

Islamist propagandists are currently spreading the narrative that the US/Israeli war on the Iranian regime unites Iranians behind the theocracy. This particular example has been debunked by Iranian journalist and DJUverdi member Ardeshir, who revealed that the woman in question is the regime supporter Maryam Khalamzadeh, who lives and studies in Berlin/Germany.The picture shows her in Teheran holding a placard that reads 'Death to USA/Death to Israel'

Recommended interview with Maxym Eristavi
"I met thousands of Russians, colleagues, friends, close people, and gradually realized that it was not a marginal phenomenon, but a systemic pattern. It is a problem so big and profound that I do not try to focus on how to “fix Russia.” That's not my role or my responsibility. My goal is to protect our way of life and ensure that this empire cannot expand further."

"Middle East studies are saturated with anti-imperialist rhetoric & reflexive “America bad” narratives that the field increasingly denies the agency of regional actors themselves.

Just like their Nazi German role models, the Russians do not treat prisoners of war as human beings, but according to their own barbaric standards. In addition to forced starvation and torture, they try to force Ukrainian POW's into the RUssian army, forcing them to fight against their own people. https://www.slidstvo.info/en/articles/beaten-and-forced-to-pray-azov-fighter-who-joined-at-18-recounts-over-three-years-of-torture-in-russian-prisons/

There might be positive outcomes of the US attack on Kharg Island: Payment to the mullah regime's security forces and foreign mercenaries might dry up, increasing the likelihood of regime change. Lebanon could finally be freed from the control of Palestinian terrorists, and the people of Israel could be freed from the threat of further terror attacks if the Islamic regime is toppled. Finally, It could delay China's invasion of Taiwan, as Venezuela and Iran currently supply most of China's oil.

In an ironic turn of events, Qatar appears to be putting pressure on the Palestinian terrorist leaders it is housing: Hamas seems to be urging Iran not to target neighbouring countries. You know you're in the wrong when even your Hamas allies condemn your actions!

In what could be a prelude to an attack by ground forces on Kharg Island, Trump shared night-vision footage showing US airstrikes on the island, which is Tehran’s main oil export hub in the Persian Gulf. US forces targeted military installations, including air defences, missile storage facilities and the island’s airfield.
