Israel-Gaza War Risks 'Distracting' From Ukraine: Zelensky
Agence France Presse ^ | 10/10/23 | AFP

Posted on 10/10/2023 3:55:54 PM PDT by JonPreston

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Tuesday that the violence engulfing Israel and Gaza risked distracting international attention from the war in his own country.

"There is a risk that international attention will turn away from Ukraine, and that will have consequences", he said in an interview with the France 2 broadcaster.

The tragedies affecting his Ukraine and Israel "are different, but both are immense", he said.

Post 32 calls Ukraine "an intelligence operation."

That's like calling the Korean War "a police action" (which is what I think it was officially called).

Doesn't matter what you call it. Hundreds of thousands dead or wounded is a real war.

It’s quite the timing.
Right as Ukraine funds are going away, the greatest intelligence agency ever misses thousands of rockets and men attacking.
Now the Neocons want to nuke Iran.

The Deep State is getting better at Forever War. They stupidly surrendered in Afghanistan too long before they had the Ukraine Russia Sar going, big mistake. Now they know to start another war before they lose the one before it.

He has become much more measured in what he says. More deliberate. That is what I was waiting for back in June, then he did it in early July.

Israel-Gaza War Risks 'Distracting' From Ukraine: Zelensky

Russian propagandists are openly saying that the Hamas attack is good for Russia since it will distract from Ukraine

Sergey Mardan, one of Russia’s best-known propagandists and host of the eponymous show on the state channel Solovyov Live, wrote on his Telegram channel that he was happy for the Russians who moved to Israel because they didn’t want to live in a country that is at war with its neighbors.

He added, “This mess is beneficial for Russia, because the globalist toad will be distracted from Ukraine and will get busy trying to put out the eternal Middle Eastern fire.” Mardan explained, “Iran is our real military ally. Israel is an ally of the United States. Therefore, choosing a side is easy!”

During his show, “Mardan,” the host made a bizarre comparison between Palestine and Russia, claiming that Russia “has been occupied since 1991” and is only now seeking to correct the situation. Russian propagandists frequently claim that Ukraine is “occupying” Russian lands, which Russia is fighting to reclaim.

Putin’s former advisor, Sergey Markov, added a supernatural claim by blaming Russian émigrés for bringing war to Israel by “jinxing” any country they run to. He said: “Russia is calling for peace, but understands that war is inevitable.

“The Soviet Union has been helping Palestinians for many years. The main ally of Israel is the United States, which is also Russia’s main enemy right now. Russia’s ally, Iran, is an ally of Hamas. Russia will benefit from the rising oil prices as a consequence of this war . . . Any conflicts on which the US and the EU have to expend resources are beneficial for Russia because this lessens the resources sent to the Russophobic regime in Ukraine.

We owe Israel total verbal support. We don’t necessarily owe them aid. Read Roman’s 9 to 11

What happened to Israel was a Progrom by Hamas assisted by the deep states of The US and Israel.

I doubt that, it would make sense and that's something they can't abide.

You're doubting that hundreds of thousands have been killed or wounded in Ukraine?

I'm open to conspiracy theories (conspiracies have historically existed), but if that's what you're suggesting, that's a whooper of a conspiracy.

Zelensky, for your own good just shut up. Putin has angered a lot of the world with his clear support for Hamas et al. Now you have to run your mouth and dump the good will that could have brought you. I would not say you are as dumb and corrupt as Biden, but you seem to be trying to prove I’m wrong.

If Russia/Ukraine was a war it would be over and Ukraine wouldn’t exist. Russia isn’t fighting a war to conquer Ukraine, it’s taken a specific area of land in Ukraine for its own protection buffer.

Got any specific numbers and why should they be believed? There are no neutral observers on the ground.
