    Yes, Ukraine never invaded Russia, never captured hostages and never announced that it will fight with Russia untill Russia is comletely destroyed.

    Probably you watch too much Russian TV :) They really liked HAMAS when their leaders visited Moscow.

    Hello Alexander,

    Is there any difference between occupied Ukraine and occupied Palestine from
    the point of view justice, democracy, human rights etc?

    The United Nations voted to create two independent Palestinian
    states - one for Palestinian Jews and one for Palestinian Arabs.
    Two peoples, three faiths. The city of Jerusalem was left alone,
    as if it never really mattered.

    Nikita Kruschev, being from Ukraine, recognized the problem right
    away. And tried to correct it as soon as it was passed by the UN.
    And for his trouble, he was given a promotion. So happy to have
    been chosen for his new position, he gave Crimea away to Ukraine
    as he took his post at the Kremlin.

    And that is when the real trouble began.

    Hamas (from Gaza) has ignited WWIII, taking on Jewish Nazis in Israel. Hezbollah will soon join the fight from Lebanon (and Syria).
    Revolutionary Guards (from Iran) will also join the fray.
    The PLO would also be a player, but Chairman Arafat is having too
    much fun with his 72 virgins in paradise.

    So. There you have it. Arab Nazis versus Jewish Nazis.
    All of them duking it out in the Holy Land.

    For Life,
    Lee

    And at least one nation, at the beginning, was a peaceful camel breeding nation. Probably because of it their land had been chosen as an easy
    target. But occupation and uktra-nationalistic policy have finally made
    devils from Arabs in their desire for freedom and absence of help from
    the world.

    IMHO, Israeli in their national policy reminded me Nazi Germany in the
    way how Hitler fought Russia. And because of it the only solution the
    present day Irsaeli authority can implement is the same thing Hitler was
    going to do in Russia - genocide of Palestine people. And probably now
    they are going to start doing it, pretending to be unjustly offended side.

    And, BTW, people in Irsaeli government look very similar to the people
    now in power in Kiev -- full ignoring the opposite side, hoping that
    force is the best solution, pretending to be an offending side etc. In
    this way the war in Ukraine started in 2014.

    This was after russia occupied Ukrainian lands. Once you started a war there are
    many ways to stop it. One, polite, is to fight out russian forces from the Ukrainian
    lands. Another is to drop political group that support this war. Even by bombing Moscov
    buildings. It's a war we did not start -- what do you expect?

    Probably you watch too much Russian TV :) They really liked
    HAMAS when their leaders visited Moscow.

    Hamaz has been borne by Israel policy. As for today war I have watched
    many media and saw that present ultra-nationalist authority has made everything to provoke Palestinians to violence.

    In general -- hamas stated that this is war agains Israel. They want to destroy it completely.
    This is the exact statement putyain did at 24.02.2022, and all his lies like "Ukraine is a country
    created by Lenin", "Ukraine is preparing attack against russia" and other fake things.

    Again, this is a war. And hamas, and russia, as a begginers, will receive all they desire.

    Dear Alexander,

    never announced that it will fight with Russia untill Russia is
    comletely destroyed.

    ;-) Yes, Zelensky has already promised to fight Russia until it be done. Anger often switches off brains -- a human property.

    But what does "done" mean? Obviously until the last Russian soldier has been expelled from Ukrainian territory, and there it stops. Should Russia withdraw from Ukraine the fighting stops that day. You know that, I know that. Even the Donbas "issue" was created by Russia. Ukraine wants to join the EU, it would have never happened as long as there would be internal problems with or within a region. Joining the EU is the best guarantee for the Donbas ... not killing people.

    Russia's action is not about "liberating" people, it's about expanding Russia to Communism-era borders, and where possible even beyond.

    You and I and a lot of people know that Ukraine can not really win this war, and Russia can not really lose it. What we see is trying to get a foot on the ground somewhere, anywhere, have as much territory as possible before the negotiations start.... all the rest is propaganda.

    Probably you watch too much Russian TV :) They really liked HAMAS
    when their leaders visited Moscow.

    Hamaz has been borne by Israel policy. As for today war I have watched
    many media and saw that present ultra-nationalist authority has made everything to provoke Palestinians to violence.

    The problem is not a present-day problem. There was a good advance to a peaceful sollution at one time ... Arafat was ready to do business, Sadat was ready to do business, Rabin was ready to do business ... then Rabin got murdered and Palestinian hopes got thrashed.

    But it goes way beyond that ... in 1962 when I was 11 I was in a school here with a population of about 1/5 Jewish kids. Very difficult to approach. Every class virtually had a Jewish group and a non-Jewish group. Very difficult to deal with them, approach them, collaborate with... and after a while you understand this is the first generation born out of the Holocaust ... at home they were instructed not to talk with us, play with us, help us with school-work, not even lend a pencil-sharpner ... because trusting and confiding in non-Jews had just cost them 4.5 million only 17 years before. One of the catch phrases was "next year in Jerusalem". That was their road to survival.

    Every conflict has two sides. Israel feels justified to take whatever measure is necessary to ensure its survival as a state.

    When the country was created in the 1940-ies the most exciting thing there was sand and camel-manure ... now it is a prosperous modern country with a lot of agricyulture, electronics industry, a leader in civilian aviation conversion ... a prime example of creating something out of nothing. The Palestinians could have been a part of that but remember, initially it was a fight against Britain and the situation was already mismanaged in 1948 or so.

    Now, are you also aware that nobody wants the Palestinians? That is the real drama. The Gaza-strip borders Egypt, a prime Arab nation, but that border is fortified ... they cannot cross it into Egypt ... Egypt does not want them, once waged war with Israel but not in favour of the Palestinians. Palestinians also do not want to emigrate to Saudi-Arabia, lots of sand too but with a totalitarian regime that doesn't know a second-one. Russia likes Palestinians? There's lots of space in Siberia ... not good for Camels. Northern Africa doesn't want them ...

    The problem is the world doesn't care about Palestinians and Israel is merely surviving.

    But the real problem in this conflict is Iran that fuels violence on many levels, it's also the main ally of your beloved supreme leader. When you need Iran as an ally and North Korea ... boy, are you on the wrong track.

    Now if just Putin would fall from a balcony, just once is enough. And please from high enough too ...

    The same Putin, as always. And you still believe that lying bastard? :)

    Russian, but whom do liberate Israeli troops on the occupied Palestine

    Russia is killing Russians in large numbers in Ukraine right now. That's the problem. But since when has someone in Russia cared about Russians? I can't remember such times :)

    Our motto was always:

    You will die today, but I will die tomorrow(c)Gulag.

    territories?

    Gaza is not occupied by Israel; it has actually been ruled by Hamas for many years (since 2008, as I rememeber).

    never announced that it will fight with Russia untill Russia is
    comletely destroyed.

    ;-) Yes, Zelensky has already promised to fight Russia until it be

    He promised to fight until Russian forces are out of Ukraine.

    done. Anger often switches off brains -- a human property. The Hamaz

    I don't think that many people in Russia actually use brains, they outsourced them to State TV :) Even calling war a "War" in Russia is forbidden.
    The State controls the language.
    And by altering their language, people begin to think differently. This becomes very clear if you visit Russia periodically and spend enough time outside of this atmosphere

    invasion is also indicative.

    Hamas still does not accept Israel's existence. They are literally saying that they will fight until Israel ceases to exist.

    Probably you watch too much Russian TV :) They really liked
    HAMAS when their leaders visited Moscow.

    Hamaz has been borne by Israel policy. As for today war I have watched

    So now you are justifing taking kids as a hostages?

    many media and saw that present ultra-nationalist authority has made everything to provoke Palestinians to violence.

    Palestinians are constantly living with violence around them. In Lebanon FATAH and HAMAZ are killing each other almost weekly. Who cares? You? :))

    Until 2014, Ukraine was a peaceful country, albeit very corrupt, and hoped that close ties with the EU would help them eradicate corruption.

    I personally talked to Ukrainian truck drivers, and they told me that in Russia, they had always been robbed by the Russian road police and had not had such experiences in the EU. So their idea of joining the EU was pretty meaningful.

    Well, until 2013 everything was all right in Ukraine, and its President
    led a balanced national policy, and both Ukrainians and Russians felt in Ukraine equal and free. Ultra-nationalists accused him of corruption. It
    is a favourite trick for people with fascist ideas -- throw a ton of mud
    on a person and cry hysterically that he is a culprit, while preparing violence. But after 2014 there were many trials of Yanukovich - but none
    of them could prove his corruption! And in general, it is a funny rule
    that people who capture power in a violent coup always start their
    activity with accusing the former authority with a state treason. ;-))

    The main problem is that Zelensky and his company looks so ugly for
    Russian people, that to find people who support and sympathize with him
    is very problematically. And don't tell me fairy-tales about democracy
    in Ukraine.

    Do you think in honest that Ukraine would had got her statehood if
    Russia has still been ruled by tsar? Or Poland, of Finland? As for
    attacks against Russian territory -- tell me, is Ukraine going to attack Russia or it has already attacked it many times and attacking now?

    Do you know there are people who think that everything can be achieved
    by force, Ukrainian nationalists, for instance. No. Compare it with a
    gate. A ram can butt it all the time, but the result is predictable.
    In the end it would be proper to say who is the ram. :) It was a person
    who started bloodshed in Ukrainian Donbass, who removed from power
    President who had been elected by people of Crimea, south and eastern
    Ukraine. Ultra-nationalists contemptuously call people of these regions "waiters" -- for they really wait for Russian troops. The sooner the
    West understand this reality the better for all.

    Hello Alexander,

    So. There you have it. Arab Nazis versus Jewish Nazis.
    All of them duking it out in the Holy Land.

    And at least one nation, at the beginning, was a peaceful camel breeding nation. Probably because of it their land had been chosen as an easy target.

    That might be why it was called The Chosen Land.

    But occupation and uktra-nationalistic policy have finally made
    devils from Arabs in their desire for freedom and absence of help from the world.

    Lets not blame it all on the Turks. After all, the British took
    it over when the Ottomans fell out of favor. And now look what you
    have.

    IMHO, Israeli in their national policy reminded me Nazi Germany in the way how Hitler fought Russia.

    Oh, come now. Israel's national policy has always been to welcome
    Vladimir Putin with open arms whenever he visits Jerusalem. So why
    would Israel want to change its policy now?

    And because of it the only solution the present day Irsaeli authority can implement is the same thing Hitler was going to do in Russia - genocide of Palestine people.

    The British were in control of Palestine during Hitler's time.
    And Hitler tried to make friends with the British. Remeber Dunkirk?
    He let all those British lads leave France to go back home while
    the German army went on to enjoy Paris.

    Before hostilities broke out, Hitler asked the world to take in
    the undocumented workers Germany had within its borders, many of
    whom were Jewish. But no country would take them in. So what did
    Hitler do? He put them on a boat, and sent them to Palestine.

    And you know the rest of the story. The British allowed all those
    undocumented workers to sneak on shore and build new homes ...

    And probably now they are going to start doing it, pretending to be unjustly
    offended side.

    Illegal immigrants from Germany was how Israel gots its start.
    Illegal immigrants from elsewhere is how Hamas gots its start.
    One can say the same about Hezbollah and others.

    But who are what are the real unustly offending side?

    And, BTW, people in Irsaeli government look very similar to the people now in power in Kiev --

    Israel is more of a theocracy than anything else.

    full ignoring the opposite side,

    In a theocratic state, such as Israel or Iran, it is the ruling
    party (religion) that has the say, not anybody else.

    hoping that force is the best solution,

    Iran has its Revolutionary Guards.
    Israel has its IDF.

    pretending to be an offending side etc.

    The IDF has no intention to offend anyone.
    Neither does Hamas. Or Hezbollah.

    In this way the war in Ukraine started in 2014.

    How is Ukraine a theocracy? How is Russia a theocracy?
    What makes a country a theocracy rather tha a democratic state?
    Is there a difference?

    For Life,

    After 1917 revolution many areas in the former USSR were cleated

    The most funny was how all Russians in Ukraine living there for
    centuries were declared to be Ukrainians, and Ukraine as a one nation
    state. But nation is not a label to be stick on head. It is a language, traditions etc. In other words it is almost a half of Ukraine population
    and only crazy people could try Russians forget their nation.

    WD> Should Russia withdraw from Ukraine the fighting stops that day.

    You (and many in the west) don't understand some fundamental notions.
    When one state occupies another state the aim is always similar -- to
    capture lands, populate them with own people, chase out (or genocide)
    native population. No news here.
    We can see all of this in Israel actions, and there are none of them in
    Russia actions in Ukraine. Russia is not going populate this areas with Russians - they are already live there. So occupation of lands in
    Ukraine has no sense and it doesn't have place. The aim is it to remove unlawful ultra-nationalist regime. This is the main difference between
    wars in Palestine and Ukraine.
    It looks similar with the invasion the US in Panama - the US didn't want occupy Panama -- it wanted to change the regime.

    WD> You know that, I know that. Even the Donbas "issue" was created by
    WD> Russia. Ukraine wants to join the EU, it would have never happened
    WD> as long as there would be internal problems with or within a
    WD> region. Joining the EU is the best guarantee for the Donbas... not
    WD> killing people.

    Joining the EU was Yanukovich's own idea, the elected Ukrainian
    President. His postponing of the deal was just a pretext to capture
    power by ultra-nationalistic forces. The main reason of Donbass/Crimea
    revolts was refusing to accept the 2014 coup. Why don't you understand this?

    WD> Russia's action is not about "liberating" people, it's about
    WD> expanding Russia to Communism-era borders, and where possible even
    WD> beyond.

    WD> You and I and a lot of people know that Ukraine can not really win

    WD> territory as possible before the negotiations start.... all the
    WD> rest is propaganda.

    I admit that there are some such people in Ukraine. But I tell you again
    - after 2014 Russia just support numerous people who fought against Kiev
    new authority. There are a lot of people in Donbass and other parts of
    Ukraine who has hated all that happened in Kiev in 2014. If new Kiev
    authority had tried to negotiate with them no war would had happened.

    <skipped>
    WD> The problem is the world doesn't care about Palestinians and Israel
    WD> is merely surviving.

    WD> But the real problem in this conflict is Iran that fuels violence
    WD> on many levels, it's also the main ally of your beloved supreme
    WD> leader. When you need Iran as an ally and North Korea... boy, are
    WD> you on the wrong track.

    The real problem for Israel were always hardliners who denied the very
    idea of two state solution. They killed Rabin, they did all they could
    to instigate violence in the occupied territories building Jewish
    settlements there.

    WD> Now if just Putin would fall from a balcony, just once is enough.
    WD> And please from high enough too...

    An idiot who starts fighting with such a country as Russia is worse than
    any tyrant, who as a rule always clever. Zelensky had all possibilities
    to stop violence in his country, unite it, as he promised during his
    election campaign. But he did opposite, hoping that brutal force could
    do everything.

    Many folks have suggested it is either the biggest intelligence
    failure Israel's Mossad ever had - or it is a staged event. Donald
    Trump has blamed it all on Benjamin Netanyahu for allowing it to
    happen. But nobody really believes that. So who really helped
    Hamas?

    More of that - I assure you all that Israel's special services
    knew about this Hamas revolt. But the ugly idea was to make a

    Revolt? It's a bloody massacre.

    Israel have wanted bloody massacre in Gaza much more.

    Casualties are roughly the same on both sides. So how many
    does it take to create a massacre? A handful of kids throwing
    rocks at soldiers and armored vehicles will do little harm.
    But what happens when kids are taught how to turn those rocks
    into rockets, and use those rockets to create fireworks at
    music festivals?

    Yes, I do believe Mossad has some serious explaining to do
    about those staged events ...

    Hello Alexander,

    has been expelled from Ukrainian territory, and there it stops.
    Should Russia withdraw from Ukraine the fighting stops that day.

    You (and many in the west) don't understand some fundamental notions.
    When one state occupies another state the aim is always similar -- to capture lands, populate them with own people, chase out (or genocide) native population. No news here.

    How did the "annexation" of the GDR go? Does it still exist?
    As far as Germans are concerned, Germany has always been united
    as one Germany - Deutschland Uber Alles.

    How did the "annexation" of Crimea go? Does it still exist?
    As far as Ukrainians are concerned, it remains part of Ukraine.
    The same as the eastern part of Germany remains part of Germany.

    Does might make right? The USA invaded, and annexed, half of Mexico.
    The internationally recognized borders of the USA include all lands
    that have been invaded and settled by force of arms.

    Is that the way things should be settled when there are disputes?
    Or whenever a dictator gets greedy wanting more land to play on?

    Whatever happened to "the will of the people"?

    We can see all of this in Israel actions, and there are none of them in Russia actions in Ukraine.

    The Arabs and Jews have been fighting for thousands of years.
    With no end in sight. Russians and Ukrainians have only been going
    at each other for less than two years. So please. Do realize both
    sides have a lot of catching up to do.

    Russia is not going populate this areas with Russians - they are already live there.

    There are people who speak Russian all over the world. Including
    some who live down the street from where I am.

    So occupation of lands in Ukraine has no sense and it doesn't have place.

    Many people who own lands in Ukraine speak Russian. Many people who
    own lands in the USA speak Russian. Many people who own lands in other
    parts of the world speak Russian.

    The aim is it to remove unlawful ultra-nationalist regime.

    Regime change. I seem to recall an American politician who used
    that excuse to rid the internationally recognized government of Iraq
    from power. And then have its leader hanged by a Shiite hit squad.

    "Is that manly?" ~Saddam Hussein's last words

    This is the main difference between wars in Palestine and Ukraine.

    Yasser Arafat was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
    No Ukrainian leader hss ever done that.

    It looks similar with the invasion the US in Panama - the US didn't want occupy Panama -- it wanted to change the regime.

    You've got it all wrong. Different Bush. The elder Bush just sent
    in the DEA to make a drug bust, capturing its leader as he was
    praying inside a church. Then the drug dealer was extradited to
    France for charges pending, served his time there, and then sent
    back to Panama to finish the rest of his sentence on other charges.

    You know that, I know that. Even the Donbas "issue" was created by
    Russia. Ukraine wants to join the EU, it would have never happened
    as long as there would be internal problems with or within a
    region. Joining the EU is the best guarantee for the Donbas... not
    killing people.

    Joining the EU was Yanukovich's own idea, the elected Ukrainian
    President. His postponing of the deal was just a pretext to capture
    power by ultra-nationalistic forces. The main reason of Donbass/Crimea revolts was refusing to accept the 2014 coup. Why don't you understand this?

    Zelenskyy is the elected president of Ukraine, not anybody else
    from Ukraine's past. It may be his wish, and his country's wish,
    to join the EU. But only time will tell if it actually happens.

    Russia's action is not about "liberating" people, it's about
    expanding Russia to Communism-era borders, and where possible even
    beyond.

    You and I and a lot of people know that Ukraine can not really win
    this war, and Russia can not really lose it. What we see is trying
    to get a foot on the ground somewhere, anywhere, have as much
    territory as possible before the negotiations start.... all the
    rest is propaganda.

    I admit that there are some such people in Ukraine.

    "Russia alone bears responsibility for this war. RUSSIA ALONE HAS
    THE POWER TO END THIS WAR IMMEDIATELY." ~US Presidet Joe Biden

    But I tell you again after 2014 Russia just support numerous people who fought against Kiev new authority.

    US President Joe Biden puts the blame squarely and solely on Russia.

    There are a lot of people in Donbass and other parts of Ukraine who has hated all that happened in Kiev in 2014. If new Kiev authority had tried to
    negotiate with them no war would had happened.

    Okraine is their home. Every inch of it. Why would any citizen
    want to give away any of their land to a hostile enemy who is hell
    bent on destruction of their very existence as a people?

    <skipped>
    The problem is the world doesn't care about Palestinians and Israel
    is merely surviving.

    But the real problem in this conflict is Iran that fuels violence
    on many levels, it's also the main ally of your beloved supreme
    leader. When you need Iran as an ally and North Korea... boy, are
    you on the wrong track.

    The real problem for Israel were always hardliners who denied the very idea of two state solution. They killed Rabin, they did all they could
    to instigate violence in the occupied territories building Jewish settlements there.

    Rabin was killed by one of his own. Arafat was rumored to have
    been killed (poisoned) by Mossad. There never was any real two
    state solution, as both sides had rejected the UN partition.
    Four wars have been fought since Israel became a state. All of
    them started by Israel. So what real chance is there for peace?

    Now if just Putin would fall from a balcony, just once is enough.
    And please from high enough too...

    An idiot who starts fighting with such a country as Russia is worse than any tyrant, who as a rule always clever. Zelensky had all possibilities
    to stop violence in his country, unite it, as he promised during his election campaign. But he did opposite, hoping that brutal force could

    Japan beat the pants out of Russia a century ago.

    So now you are justifing taking kids as a hostages?

    You and I know perfectly well that hate can eclipse any brains. The Jewish authorities have done all so that it to happen.

    Jewish authorities? Please. Get real. This is either the biggest
    failure in Mossad, or an acting job. Who is helping Hamas?

    More of that - I assure you all that Israel's special services knew
    about this Hamas revolt.

    What did they know? Did Mossad have agents inside Iran's Supreme
    Council of Ayatollahs?

    But the ugly idea was to make a bloody suppression of Hamas.

    How could Hamas learn how to make bombs out of rocks so quickly?
    Who taught them how to do that? How were they able to throw those
    rockets so far, hitting so many targets at folks at a concert and
    elsewhere? Iran must have some great pitching coaches.

    Hamas had to do his bloody revolt, and Israel would have an indulgence to spill a sea of blood in Gaza.

    Casualties are about the same on both sides, so ...

    That was the plan.

    I kill me. The plan works both ways.

    So hostages and kids have been in the cost sheet.

    And babies. Let's not forget about the babies.

    Is there a difference?

    Ultra-nationalism is similar to a hard-core religion with all consequences, violent fanaticism including.

    Is it? Is it really?

    Adolf Hitler was a popular guy in Germany among Germans, with
    over 90% of the German population being card-carryiing members
    of the Nazi Party. He is the one who saved Germany from itself.
    Nobody else. That is why he was called "der Fuehrer" (savior).

    It was not until after the war that Germans knew what really
    happened. After all, they had to be told by those who occupied
    their land. For ten years, Germans had to be reminded that his
    way of doing things was not the only way to do things.

    In Japan, it only took five years, as the Emperor was much
    more cooperative. Especially after Tojo had lost his head.

    Hello Alexander,

    I only don't know why you can't accept what Russians in
    Ukraine can sincerely want to live in Russia?
    There's nothing stopping them from emigrating to Russia, a lot
    of open space in Siberia, and make a living for themselves ...

    After 1917 revolution many areas in the former USSR were cleated
    formally and arbitrarily. Do you believe or not there even a special Jewish region was created at the Far East. But the principal in the USSR and Russia was intact - people of every nation could leave in every part of the country.

    Finland left. And is now a part of NATO. A few decades later,
    the other countries followed suit. And a funeral was held, with
    nobody in attendance.

    The most funny was how all Russians in Ukraine living there for
    centuries were declared to be Ukrainians, and Ukraine as a one nation state.

    Cajuns were in Louisiana before there ever was a USA. French was,
    and is, their native tongue. So how does that make Cajuns to be
    citizens of France or England? Not even Napoleon Bonaparte wanted
    anything to do with us, selling us out. Which is why we are all
    stuck where we are today.

    But nation is not a label to be stick on head.

    The UN voted to create two Palestinian states. Yet both groups
    of Palestinians rejected the deal. So who owns the land of Palestine?

    It is a language, traditions etc.

    Palestinian Jews do not speak Arabic, and Palestinian Arabs
    do not speak an invented language (Hebrew). But both groups do
    enjoy the same foods, as everything they eat is kosher.

    In other words it is almost a half of Ukraine population
    and only crazy people could try Russians forget their nation.

    A people identify themselves by language, regardless of where
    they live or are from.

    Thursday October 12 2023 21:55, you wrote to Lee Lofaso:

    dying is a statistic" ?

    Well, in fact, he didn't say this:

    https://quoteinvestigator.com/2010/05/21/death-statistic/

    -+-
    In 1925 a journalist and satirist named Kurt Tucholsky wrote a piece in a German newspaper that included a statement that was similar to the quotation. Here was the original text together with an English translation

    Darauf sagt ein Diplomat vom Quai d.Orsay: .Der Krieg? Ich kann das
    nicht so schrecklich finden! Der Tod eines Menschen: das ist eine Katastrophe. Hunderttausend Tote: das ist eine Statistik!.

    At which a diplomat from French Ministry of Foreign Affairs replies:
    .The war? I can.t find it too terrible! The death of one man: that is a catastrophe. One hundred thousand deaths: that is a statistic!.
    -+-

    BTW, funny story from the history of our poor country about Stalin:

    Lenin lived in London for several years, and the Bolsheviks (members of the radical wing of our Communist party) held a Congress in London in 1907. Most of the revolutionaries were rather poor and had limited financial resources to buy alcohol, so they visited cheap bars with low-priced German beer.
    Lenin had a quite rich mother in Russia who sent him money, so he invited some comrades to local pubs. The pub where they were drinking with Stalin still exists!

    Actually, they met in London for the first time. The rest is well known history...

    Hello Ward,

    So who really helped Hamas?

    The one having the most to gain from it ... Russia ... in hopes that US efforts to support Ukraine would be diverted to Israel.

    The US has no boots on the ground in Ukraine.
    The US also has no boots on the ground in Israel.
    But the US does have an aircraft carrier in the Mediterranean.
    Maybe even two aircraft carriers ...

    They don't give a shite about the massacre of Palestinians that is gong to happen, they're cannon-fodder, just as Russian grunt soldiers
    in Ukraine.

    Palestinians are dying for a country that does not exist.
    A land that was taken from them. And now they are be invaded
    by a force none of them are able to flee away from.

    So what are they to do? Where are they to go?
    They cannot jump into the sea, as they would drown.
    They cannot go to the east, as that is Israel.
    And they cannot flee to the south, as that is Egypt.
    And going north is just plain suicide.

    Same for the Israelis that would be killed ...

    Not until tomorrow (Friday the 13th) which is Day of Jihad.

    Day of Jihad. On Friday the 13th. During an eclipse of the Sun.

    You do realize what this means.

    It is the day the 12th Imam is coaxed out of hiding.
    Making his appearance to Muslims around the world.

    Keep your eyes on Jerusalem as the Mahdi leads his faithful ...

    Didn't Stalin once say "A person dying is terrible, a million people dying is a statistic" ?

    There is no proof Stalin ever said that. None whatsoever.

    Well, in fact, he didn't say this:

    These urban stories can be wonderful.

    BTW, funny story from the history of our poor country about Stalin:

    And Karl Marx wrote "Das Kapital" in Brussels ... I don't expect the site was preserved.

    History can be a funny thing, take the American 'War of 1812' ... the peace-treaty was negotiated in Ghent (Belgium) while the fighting occured in North America. It was signed Dec.24 1814 in Ghent, ratified by the British Prince Regent Dec.27th and then went on a long transatlantic voyage in a sailboat (with no direct communication). The document arrived in Washington Feb.17th 1815 and was ratified immediately thereby nearly immediately stopping the fighting of which the peace treaty had been signed nearly 2 months before ... The room in Ghent where the treaty was negotiated has been preserved and is visited by US tourists.

    I repeat to you that everything had started with a schism within Ukraine
    after all Ukrainian laws had been trampled by the 2014 coup. I don't
    know why you think that this event had been greeted across all Ukraine. Although, it easy to understand for me why they were greeted in the West
    -- everything that detriments Russia interests has been always welcomed
    in the West.

    I explain to you once more - suppose London area in the UK has been
    captured or bought by France. Will Englishmen become the French? A
    nation is something more than a place of living. Many Russian regions
    were separated from Russia after the collapse of the USSR. But tens of millions of Russians still live there and keep their culture. Everything
    will be OK if not offend them.

    I mean that genocide and killing Ukrainians is not the aim of this war, whatever Zelensky's says in his Goebbels' style propaganda.

    The crimes committed by Ukraine troops in Donbass were not less innocent
    than drag trafficking from Panama. And, BTW, the big war started after
    wrong planning from the side of Russia. Russian generals sincerely
    thought that Ukrainian military would take Russia's side. A big mistake,
    a big consequences.

    <skipped>
    LL> "Russia alone bears responsibility for this war. RUSSIA ALONE HAS

    There was time when Ukraine could easily stop the conflict on its
    territory and leave Russians in Donbass alone. But I repeat - spilt
    blood complicated everything immensely. Ilon Mask proposed a very good
    and sober solution - new referendums -- but they are now impossible to implement. With any price, with common weapon or with nukes -- Russia
    will get it aim. Those who ignored peaceful opportunities to solve the conflict before are to blame.

    A good prickle ;), but, Japan's war was too far from industrial Russia
    center, and, BTW, just a few yeas later Russia had gotten from Japan
    much more than lost. As for Finland, I repeat my idea again, that Stalin
    had nipped off as much of Finland as he wanted, and, BTW, those acquired
    lands helped greatly the USSR in WW2. As for Afghanistan, the USSR had
    left it by the same reason as did the US -- it had nothing to do there. ;-)

    The crimes committed by Ukraine troops in Donbass were not less innocent than drag trafficking from Panama.

    Don't worry, Russia will voluntarily rebuilt all new Russian territories
    and will not be a miser, judging by the amount of money it spent in
    Crimea. ;=) The West will also brake its money-boxes for Ukraine.

    First, Russia did not called itself a democratic state then.
    Second, in other words, Israel has now confirmed a hideous rule for the
    21 century -- if you are very angry you can kill indiscriminately and in
    any barbaric way, doing. Hitler's collective punishment has become legal
    now, too. A good teacher for Jews.

    The corollary from this: Hamas has done nothing wrong (it was very
    angry) in ways he did its operation in Israel-- Ops, sorry -- the
    territories attacked by Hamas ARE occupied Palestinian territories
    accoring the UN and law. So, as the West accepts Ukrainian strikes in
    Crimea and Donbass it must say that the latest Hamas strike is also
    perfectly legal.

    Then why is it happening? Why are Ukrainians being killed? They
    did not attack any country, they didn't invade anyone... Donbas
    you will say? Anyone with half a brain understands that conflict
    was started by Russia.

    Do you know who had sent troops to Donbass first, in 2014? Who did

    Malofeev, our Russian ologarch - he was Putin's wardog, who organized infiltration of Russian fighters to Ukraine.

    Don't worry, Russia will voluntarily rebuilt all new Russian
    territories and will not be a miser, judging by the amount of money it

    Russia cannot rebuild it's own territories!

    When you drive thru Russian you see that country is really very poor. And it won't change in nearest future.

    Russia left Afghanistan because they were militarily beaten ...

    Well, for me you are both a bit wrong: in fact USSR was already economically collapsing. We had shortages of everything, world oil prices were very low - and our army was unable to destory Afghan opposition fighters.

    I rememember standing in 1988 (when our troops were coming out of Afghanistan) in 6 hours (!) queue to buy green bananas with my mother (they had to be kept in warm place for severals before consumption). No one cared about any "victory", everyone were busy looking for everything in empty shops.

    The USSR was begging for western credits and leaving Afghanistan alone was one of the Western demands.

    The USSR entered Afghanistan to exterminate the leader of the local Communist state, replace him with another leader, more controllable and to save the communists from Islamic rebels.
    By 1988, no one in the USSR believed in communism: it was viewed as a completely failed ideology. Even soldiers in the
    Soviet army stationed in Afghanistan kept posters from Western films and music groups in their armored vehicles. And also names of Western labels, "adidas" :)

    And USSR was unable to pay it's debts to western companies and needed money. War in Afghanistan was a way to cut military spendings and to please the West to get more money in hard currency.

    civil war as "Anti terror operation"?

    2014?

    Hmmmm ... Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 was shot down by Russian-controlled forces on 17 July 2014, while flying over eastern Ukraine. All 283 passengers and 15 crew were killed. That's 2014 ...

    So the Russian forces were already there, and the Russian weaponry too.

    Try again...

    The West will also brake its money-boxes for Ukraine.

    Actually, the west is confiscating the interests on blocked Russian funds to support Ukraine ... it doesn't really cost us as much as you'd think. Taxes have not gone up because of Ukraine ... and the interests keep on accrueing.

    In Ukraine in 2014 there were only some advisers and volunteers. It's
    easy to understand -- if Russian troops were in Ukraine in 2014 they
    would should use military aviation, tactic rockets etc. None of it were
    used. Do you think it is OK to send troops to fight with AK-47 alone?

    As for Malaysia 17 -- it was a crime to allow civil jets to fly over a military zone. Nothing good can happen if you do it.

    The tanks and all other weapons systems operated by Ukraine forces are owned by Ukraine, it's their property. Not of any other NATO-member. Plus, NATO does not participate in this war, Russia does... And Ukraine is not a NATO-member either ...

    We now know, and you too, that should NATO put forces on the ground this war would be over as quickly as Desert Storm in 1991 ... if you were not around at that time, it was about 100 hours.

    Other than that, the Russian BUK-system that shot-down MH17 was manned, operated and commanded by Russian military ...inside Ukrainian borders. Also that has been established beyond the shadow of a doubt.

    The main western problem now is brain weakness (Biden is like a mirror).
    You now unable to think adequately and understand Russia as it is, in
    full scale. From here is your comparison Russia with Iraq, seeing it as
    an easy target, foolish ideas that you can ruin Russia with sanctions etc.

    Nothing bad could have happened if the West respected Russia interests according to its real status.

    After the Israel crimes in the present day Palestine we can easily spit
    and forget that funny incident in 2014. ;-) And, BTW, for me, it is
    impossible to think that a regular Russian crew of BUK could mix up a
    small low flying turbo-prop with a huge high flying Boing. I am
    absolutely sure that it was a Ukrainian secret service operation.
    Ukraine was the only one who had got a great profit from it.

    Ukraine already lost big part of the territory which is now officially part of Russia.
