Russia's Putin sees upside to Israel's war with Hamas - analysis
Jerusalem Post ^ | 11/17/23 | Reuters

Russian President Vladimir Putin waited three days before commenting on Hamas's massacre of Israelis, which happened to take place on his 71st birthday. When he did, he blamed the United States, not Hamas.

"I think that many will agree with me that this is a clear example of the failed policy in the Middle East of the United States, which tried to monopolize the settlement process," Putin told Iraq's prime minister.

It was a further six days before Putin spoke to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to offer his condolences for the slaughter of around 1,200 Israelis. Ten days after that, Russia said a Hamas delegation was in Moscow for talks.

Another problem the Russians have neglected.

Putin owns three megayachts and at least one palace on the Black Sea.

It costs US$600,000 to fill up his biggest yacht with fuel. That’s about the same as the income of 100 average Russian families for a year.

> Putin puts Russia first whatever the situation. <

Basically true. Likewise,

Israel’s Netanyahu puts Israel first.
China’s Xi puts China first.
Hungary’s Orbán puts Hungary first.

So what is Biden doing? He puts a weird combination of wokeness, illegal immigration, and overspending first. Add to that constant international meddling. That cannot end well.

I used to feel different. Can see the Russians for what they are now. I used to buy into the ‘but Nato has pushed them blah blah blah’. Screw em.

Putin puts ordinary Russians last. Since when has waging military adventurism been good for the ordinary salt of the earth folks.

Let me be clear. I see Putin’s invasion of Ukraine as a war crime. And so Putin is a war criminal. He completely overreacted to NATO provocations. I have said that since day one.

But the question remains. Why did Putin order the invasion? The most reasonable answer is that Putin thought the invasion would somehow benefit Russia in the long run. That is my point. He put Russian interests before EU or American sensibilities.
