Since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine began last week, most Israeli leaders across the political spectrum have either expressed full support for Ukrainians or cautiously supported a neutral approach for strategic reasons, fearful of harming the country’s interests in Russia-controlled Syria.
A minority on the right, however, has gone as far as to express a measure of sympathy and identification with Russian President Vladimir Putin’s justifications for Russia asserting a historic claim to Ukrainian territory.
“People in Russia suit Putin’s rule. Kyiv is Russia’s birthplace. Kyiv for Putin is like Bethlehem and Hebron,” said Maj. Gen. (ret.) Gershon Hacohen, a senior research associate at the Begin-Sadat Center for Strategic Studies, in a recent interview on Kan public television.
Hacohen questioned the assumption that Israel needed to stand with the “Free World” and be on the “right side of history.”
“Is the European Union on ‘the right side of history’ when it opposes me when it comes to Judea and Samaria [the West Bank], building for the Palestinians and pouring money into anti-Zionist NGOs?” he said. “I have to ask myself: what is the right side of history for me?”
While condemning the brutality of Putin’s invasion, some right-wing commentators – similar to their U.S. counterparts, most famously Fox News host Tucker Carlson – positively contrasted the Russian leader’s strength with what they see as the weakness of leaders in Western Europe and the United States, and their failure to offer a counterbalance to his aggression over the years.
Noam Fathi, a right-wing journalist and broadcaster, as well a fierce advocate of former Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, tweeted that it was NATO and the West who were “standing on the ‘stupid side of history,’” since “it’s the NATO countries who repeatedly provoked Putin, blatantly violated agreements with him …

Ukraine learned that lesson the hard way. It also means that rogue states will hang on to their nukes that much harder.
Do you have any idea the nuclear threat Moscow continuously rotates into NORTHCOM ?
And significant loitering (sometimes as close as Clinton’s UN 12nm territorial boundary agreement).
I am going to bed, but it would blow your mind, and get me in trouble, if I really went into it.
300 miles... is a joke.
Try 40 to 80nm frequently -
Do you dispute the selectiveness of the quotes in this article in the leftwing anti-Israel rag Haretz?

1. My eyesight isn't that bad. I can read regular sized fonts.
2. What has this article to do with socialism?
3. So then, you do not dispute the accuracy of the quotes?
I’m no fan of my country.
My thoughts are first and foremost, with the US.
Do you think I can be loyal to a country that simply views my province as an ATM?
No. It’s almost as bad. He’s from that despotic tell whole named Kanada - A.K.A. Cold Cuba.
Again, I do not trust Haarerz on quotes especially in vile anti Jewish campaign since the early 2000s...
And Tes, Haaretz is a far lefty. These propaganda pieces belong on DK not on FR or on al Jazeera.
Canada is an asshole, almost as bad as China.
Don’t blame me for the circumstances of my birth.
the LEFT is for NWO and the great reset (includes the media)
Israel is NOT in favor of the left or the NWO
Israel is in favor of Trump and the right
Trump is against the NWO and great reset
as is Putin.
Ukraine ... is FOR the NWO and great reset
how things are aligning makes sense when you understand why
ukraine brought in US bioweapon labs
they’re also in favor of the NWO / great reset
Putin is doesn’t want any of that
You're so eager to fight a war with someone else's country. I bet you would be the first one fleeing up to the frozen North if war came to our shores.
It’s not me that supports this war.
I’ve already stated that this war is between the globalists and Russia and neither victor will be a good choice.
I would stand with the US, as long as it remained a Constitutional Republic.
Now, so much for an entire misleading headline about a supposed few.. Here is the OFFICIAL Arab side:
What does the Arab socialist Hadash Party really think about the war in Ukraine? sides with Putin, invasion
https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4044128/posts
Like we have nothing to fear from giving up our guns.
Russia doesn’t have any bio weapons labs?
Putin has been president of Russia since May 7th, 2000.
It looks as if he’s president for life. Who else do we know that
Became president for life? Who else do we know that
invaded his neighbors. The Ukraine is the third nation
Putin has invaded.
He’s an ex KGB official.
He just closed down every non-government news source.
He’s threatening to unleash nuclear weapons against you.
In the last few days he has threatened Sweden and Finland by name,
and anyone else who crosses him, with nukes.
He’s the good guy?

The thing is that this is not anti-US per se. Israel and India are both in difficult positions that they love the US but they also have Russia as an ally
