You can see how when the Russians purge Putin for his catastrophic huge mistake that severely hurt the Russian nation it will be the Jewish oligarchs and the Jews that will be blamed in the tradition of always present Russian anti Semitism. Bennett ought to be aware that it might not be wise for the Prime Minister of Israel getting too involved with this situation. Post Putin Russian propagandists will blame Jews and Jewish globalists such as Soros and others for their troubles and the consequences the Russian people will suffer for Putin’s debacle.

How come wealthy, left-wing political meddlers in the West - Soros, Gates, Klaus Schwab, Blumenthal, Bezos, Dorsey, Zuckerberg - are never referred to as “oligarchs”? That is exactly the role they play.

In 2003, he became head of the Yukos oil company after another Jewish oligarch, Mikhail Khodorkovsky, was jailed by Russian leader Vladimir Putin for tax evasion and theft — but mostly, most observers think, for funding opposition parties. The Guardian in 2003 uncovered CIA documents linking Kukes to bribery, charges which he has denied.

And .....

During Yeltsin when apparatchiks and commissars who were almost all Jewish in this particular case grabbed the opportunity and became the original oligarchs by organizing to grab the stocks of state industry when it became public often through chicanery and thuggery with former state police elements and they propped up Yeltsin mostly

Putin when he came to power said not so fast and purged over time most of them with his own buddies most of whom are not Jewish but some are and he let Abramovich stay but I think they’ve had differences since

The Ukraine however is dominated by Jewish oligarchs and one tartar mulsim and others of varying identities

The oligarchs in Ukraine installed Zelensky

Putin unlike Zelensky outpowers his oligarchs and they know that

What a crazy way to run nations ...

The Huffington Post has referred to Al-Monitor as “increasingly a daily must-read for insightful commentary on the Middle East.”

Not only are they oligarchs, but they are near to functioning as the European nobles who ruled serfs centuries ago.

For some reason I suspect Bennett has better sources of intel, more street smarts and a higher IQ than you do—just guessing...

;-)

In a world of complexity and danger, the voices and shrieks of the vapid will always be present to the end.

Ok, according to another post Israel “sides” with Russia.. So much BS to wade through; so little time. Just leave those poor Russians alone!

Not quite a plurality. But a lot.

A lot of Ukrainians, too.
