Russia backs Hamas terrorists, calls Israel 'occupying power' that 'does not' have right to self-defense

Russia this week declared that Israel has no right to self-defense and labeled its would-be ally an "occupying power" in a move that undermines years of work from Jerusalem to improve its relationship with Moscow.

"The only thing [the West] can muster is continued pronouncements about Israel’s supposed right to self-defense. Although, as an occupying power, it does not have that power," Russian Amb. Vasily Nebenzya said during his speech at the United Nations General Assembly session on the conflict. Nebenzya clarified that Israel can "fight terror," but urged the country to "fight terrorists and not civilians."

Nebenzya also condemned Western "hypocrisy" over Palestinian deaths and compared it to the outcry over Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, according to The Moscow Times.

"In other situations, [Western nations] call for the respect of humanitarian law, set up inquiry commissions and impose sanctions on those who use force as a last resort to stop years of violence," Nebenzya said, but that on the "destruction in Gaza … they play mum."

It is a fearful and terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living God...

Yes it is. I have often wondered why God told the Children of Israel, to just conquer some groups, but with others, they were to wipe them out, to the last man, woman and child? Could there be a gene pool problem, that required their complete eradication? Obviously, there was something wrong.

No Refugees... Nobody to claim ownership.

The same problem that we’re dealing with today.
