Under Secretary of State Victoria Nuland calls on Israel to join Western sanctions, as Jerusalem's attempt to publicly stay in a neutral position becomes increasingly precarious

The US warned Israel on Friday against taking in "dirty money" from Russia and called on Jerusalem to join Western sanctions to punish the Kremlin for its invasion of Ukraine.

Israel has avoided sanctions or strident criticism against Russia and President Vladimir Putin as it seeks to balance its warm ties with both Kyiv and Moscow...

To misquote Chuckie Schumer:

“Israel has many ways to get back at you.”

The Biden gang are asking for it....

Israel torn over ties with Russian oligarchs
Al Monitor ^ | 3/1/2022 | Ben Caspit

https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4044206/posts

At a Feb. 27 meeting of Israel’s foreign affairs and security Cabinet, Foreign Minister Yair Lapid turned to his colleagues with a strange request-cum-warning, asking them not to provide assistance to Jewish-Russian billionaires/oligarchs who have been hit by international sanctions. “You have to be very careful because those guys have connections and they can call you on the phone and ask you for things. Don’t commit to anything because it could cause diplomatic damage. Say you can’t help them and give them the number of the Foreign Ministry,” said Lapid.

Such appeals have apparently already begun. The oligarchs are the latest twist in the dilemmas with which the Russian invasion of Ukraine are confronting Israel as it seeks to balance a host of competing interests. Quite a number of them are Jewish and hold Israeli citizenship. Quite a few are connected in one way or another to senior Israeli civil society and political echelons. A few live in Israel at least part time and invest their money here. Israel may have to impose sanctions on them.

The best-known oligarch is Roman Abramovich, a Russian-born Jewish billionaire who lives in Israel part time and owns a mansion here. He was considered one of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s closest associates, and on top of it all is a generous benefactor of hospitals and public causes, including a pledge of tens of millions of dollars to the Yad Vashem Holocaust Remembrance Center. Reports yesterday said Abramovich is in Belarus, apparently at Ukraine’s request, assisting in the negotiations between Russia and Ukraine.

Hold on... Israel is not buying all the gas from Russia... Isn’t all of Europe refusing to boycott Russian gas? Victoria might be a little worried about a Fauci funded Bio Lab in Ukraine.

I hear your well versed in that also.

Under Demented Joe, Russia can offer Israel more security than America. I expect them to align and I don’t blame them.

Victoria Nuland is simply the mouthpiece of Ihor Kolomoisky, the string-puller of Zelensky. Israel has “oligarchs” on both sides of the conflict. They will probably stay neutral.

Democrats love to order everybody around.

Russia and Israel are two countries that take orders from no-one.

Israel needs Russia to restrain Iran. Russia has great influence in OPEC and thus Saudi Arabia. Russia is the major power who checked the Obama Syrian color-revolution using militant Islam as mercenaries.

Israel knows the woke, progressive and insane neocon USA Fed.gov is increasingly at odds with their security.
