As Putin’s war sputters, antisemitism seeps into the Russian media landscape
Arutz Sheva ^ | 30/9/22 | Cnaan Lipshitz

Soon after he rose to power 22 years ago, Russian President Vladimir Putin cracked down on the open antisemitism that nearly all of his predecessors had either encouraged, tolerated or ignored.

Now, as Russia’s war effort in Ukraine founders, openly anti-Jewish rhetoric is entering the country’s mainstream media, with a popular talk show host naming Jews on air as being insufficiently patriotic and a think tank accusing a prominent Jewish philosopher of siding with Ukraine out of greed.

The shift in rhetoric about Jews in Russian media began about two months ago, according to Roman Bronfman, a former Israeli lawmaker who has published a book about post-Soviet Jewry. That was around when news emerged that Ukrainian troops had successfully stopped the advance of Russian forces on Ukrainian territory; since then, they have repelled Russian troops from some areas the Russians had captured.

“At a moment when the regime’s stability was threatened, a Jewish target was selected,” Bronfman said. “In many ways this is a repeat of multiple episodes in Russian history, including the final days of Josef Stalin’s time in power.”

Hardly surprising. The Czars found it useful, too. A lot of Russia and Ukraine used to be in the Khazar Empire, btw, and I recall through hearsay from the second season of Z's Sitcom Sluga Narodu (Servant of the People) he depicts Czar Volodomir/Vladimir I swearing to even make a pact with the devil in order to fight the Jewish Khazars.

“As ZelenskyyIdiot’s was sputters and stalls, ethnocentrism and the censorship of the Russian language and censorship of critics of Ukraine seeps into the media landscape”

Corrected.

The latest victim:

“Fox News host TUCKER CARLSON’s channel banned on the territory of Ukraine.

In one of the recent editions of the Tucker Carlson Tonight, a Fox News host and political commentator Tucker Carlson said that Joe Biden was building a dictatorship in the country following the example of the dictatorship of Vladimir Zelensky. The President of Ukraine established an authoritarian government and banned all mass media that could pose a threat to the Ukrainian fascist nomenclature.

The result was not long in coming - Zelensky personally banned this channel on the territory of his country, since it published the whole truth about Ukrainian propaganda.

This once again underlines the fact that Ukraine has turned into a territory ruled by a tyrant, for whom the principles of democracy, dissent, and human freedoms are unacceptable.”

His war has been sputtering but its not as if Russia hasn’t won territory and achieved important goals either.

If Putin decides not to attack further, can Ukraine even hope to regain the territory it lost?

I didn’t find a thing in the article supporting the narrative.

Blaming a Jewish philosopher in supporting Ukraine or recognizing Jewish urinalists foreign agents is barely related to their Jewishness.

Is person off limit if he is Jewish.

Putin’s pro-Israel stance is well-known.

I wish I could get one of those MSM keyboards with the Antisemitism key on it.

Maybe raised a quarter inch higher that all the other keys.

Yes, and he’s very friendly with Russia’s Hasidim and Lubavichers. It’s the greediest of the Jewish oligarchs whom he’s rubbed the wrong way. He put an end to their financial gang-rape of Russia during the immediate post-USSR era, and there are some who’ll never forgive him for it.

He altered that early in the war, and started making noises about Palestinian rights.

When you get in trouble, blame the Jews because there aren’t many FreeMasons left in Europe.

Now both sides can accuse the other of being Nazis.

Best we stay out of this mess.

And what talking of Palestinian rights have to do with this? You talk of Ukrainian rights so what? BTW, is arresting a criminal anti-semiti if he turned to be Jewish? The article is a bunch of baloney.

Nope.
Just the reality of anti Chinese antisemitism by blacks in New York City.
