All those videos of Israeli women getting kidnapped or murdered by Palestinians being the first thing anyone sees about the new iteration of conflict is tragic but it's also very convenient. It's more than enough to untie Israel's hands and use this footage to convince the World that anything they will do in retaliation will be justified. The old leftist narrative of poor palestinian children was buried today - in the West that is

Murder of women - which IDF has plenty of - has a wild effect on male psyche. You can easily ignore male deaths or think of them as necessary sacrifice. But something about the death of females triggers a completely different response. Don't wanna get overly conspiratorial and replace plain old incompetence with a premediated scheme, though.

Maybe Israelis were that incompetent and completely missed preparations for this attack. Or maybe they weren't and let their own people be murdered in order to change the narrative on purpose. In any case, any Israeli actions henceforward will face no major criticism. Total occupation of Gaza strip and a brutal genocide might be in order - which i'm not the advocate of

It's cynical but the more chaos there is in the world - the better it is for us. It is the only way to distract our enemies attention from Ukraine - a husk of a country on life support. Every dollar US spends on Israel instead of Ukraine will further our victory. Simple as

So i genuinely hope that both sides of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict will win, if you catch my drift

Soviet involvement in the whole Israel-Palestine affair was a major one. It was Stalin who was first to recognize Israel as a sovereign state. Soviets at the time (1948) hoped for an alliance with Jewish kibutz socialists. It turned out that the Israeli socialists decided to betray USSR and cozy up to a new ally in the face of US. Thus friendship with Israel has ended and a moderate support of the Palestinians has begun

Those wild swings indicated that USSR had no idea what to do with this place. Israelis betrayed them, Palestinians were happy to receive all the military aid they wanted - but did not want to reciprocate and strive towards the soviet ideal either. USSR, as always, was being played by both sides for zero gain

For modern Russia - both Israel and Palestine are irrelevant sand places with bearded heretics, more or less. Israel has more Russian-speaking population, obviously, but not all of them are sympathetic to us. Neither of two sides are our allies in any way, shape of form. Never were. Finally, we get to be the idle bystanders in a conflict that does not terribly concern us. I'm happy for them tho. Or sorry that happened.

Interesting: Ramzan Kadyrov - the biggest lion of Islam in all of Russia - has not uttered a word since the hot phase of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict resumed. He completely ignored it and posted about horse sports on all of his social media. Only the >120 iq subscribers will understand what it actually means

A list of some women that got kidnapped by Palestinians (Reportedly)

Unfortunately, one of them seems to be of the Russian heritage (Elizaveta Prudnikova)

The victims of this kidnapping spree were Israelis and various tourists who arrived at a rave party to the deep south of Israel

Yet another Zhirinovsky's prophecy. In the long run, Israel as a peaceful prospering state is probably done for. This attack will most likely not destroy them but it's а beginning of a whole new chapter. A lot of new wars on the horizon.

Our official position on any geopolitical dispute: The entire World is rightfully Russian. Except for Kosovo. Kosovo is Serbia.

I've noticed something. All American client states that are in the state of war are required to do one weird and unnecessary thing. They conscript their women.

YPG has Kurdish womban warriors. IDF is famous for their female soldiers. AFU started mobilizing Oksanas as we speak! All of the three are fully dependent on American funds, intel and tech.

Why do yanks hate brown women of their vassals so much?

I can think of two reasons. 1. Ass shaking female tiktok warrior of IDF, AFU or YPG make desperate men around the world simp for them. Also, if those combatants were to be killed, it's very easy to spin a convenient narrative in the news. 2. It's one of the persistent neurotic fixations of the American elites, just like gender-bending. They experiment on their lab rats and have entire think-tanks measuring the psychological effects on various control groups

If I still cared about such things, I'd probably be pissed off that some can vaporize densely populated city blocks full of people with air strikes as punishment against “terrorists” they can't catch and get their dicks sucked for it by media and politicians all over the world, while others wage the most surgically clean war that is humanly possible with modern methods, with the lowest civilian-to-military death ratio seen in the history of modern warfare (to the detriment of the military campaign itself!), while accused of “genocide”. Luckily, I don't. https://t.me/grey_zone/20997

Young Peter the Great: The Movie is here. Initially, it was designed to be a youtube video and took our friend a lot of hours to make. It's very well done! But unfortunately, most of the quality re-enactments of this time period are heavily copyrighted and there's no way to fool the algorithms nowadays

In any case, if you haven't heard the pod yet and are interested to learn about young Pyotr, his insane "masonic" orgies, first battles and the grand voyage to Europe - give this video a watch

Audio version is available in the post i'm replying to. Minor audio issues (clipping) will be fixed in the next installment

Little stream on recent events today (8pm Moscow time); tune in in 4 hours from now!

Israel having supported Hamas in its early stages to weaken the PLO is just another entry in a long inglorious line of people thinking they're really smart while nurturing something that comes back to bite them in the ass, and it is not just restricted to the famous American examples (backing Bin Laden & the Taliban, etc); Russia sort of did the same thing by supporting completely ineffectual pseudo-pro-Russian forces in Ukraine (& other countries in the “near abroad”); and Yanukovych & his Regionals, in turn, propping up radical Banderites as a “convenient” boogeyman opposition, leading, of course, to civil war as well as utter economic & demographic ruin, themselves losing everything or having to serve as sycophants to the new regime, and eventually to the death of Ukrainian statehood as such
