On the evening of May 15, 1948 at the hall of the Tel Aviv Museum, David Ben-Gurion, born in Plonsk, Poland in 1886, chair of the executive of the Jewish Agency for Palestine, declared the establishment of a Jewish State in Eretz-Israel to be known as the State of Israel. It would be a state based on freedom, justice, and peace; it would ensure complete equality of social and political rights to all its inhabitants irrespective of religion, race, or sex.
No one at the meeting or in the 74 ensuing years could have suspected that an Austrian-German politician named Adolf Hitler would have approved of the creation of Israel. However, on May 1, 2022, in his fanciful, disgraceful, and delusionary remarks in an interview on an Italian TV program, Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov attacked Ukraine and its President Volodymyr Zelensky: “the fact that Zelensky is a Jew does not negate the Nazi elements in his country. I believe that Adolf Hitler had Jewish blood. For a long time now we’ve been hearing the wise Jewish people say that the most ardent anti-Semites are usually Jews.”
There are three interesting factors in Lavrov’s nonsensical and disgusting remark. One is that Lavrov accepted that the definition of a Jew is determined not by religion, but by purity of blood.
The second is the perverse implication that blames Jews for their own genocide. The third is the adoption of implicit anti-Semitic conspiracy theories. War criminal Vladimir Putin appears to have belatedly apologized to Israeli prime minister Naftali Bennett for Lavrov’s remark, but this does not remove the revelation of the anti-Semitism of Russian elites, holding views that resemble those in the U.S. of Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota and Rep. Rashida Tlaib of Michigan.

Calling a Holocaust a pogrom does not change what it is.
No it doesn’t.
And here we have pro-abortion freaks screaming in Sunday mass throughout America, while Conservative Inc gives us an anti-Semitism in Russia lesson. They are useless, and completely out of touch.
Not useless at all.
They are saying the quiet part out loud, proclaiming why our homeland may have to be destroyed over a war halfway around the world that has nothing to do with us - it's all about an ancient ethnic hatred.
It's a blood feud that our elite see as a business opportunity.
Ukraine Jews + those in the US and Israel will fight to the last American.
War mongering ghouls
When your enemy is making a mistake (such as screaming in Sunday Mass), do not interrupt them. The worse they do, the better.
Now that is unhinged. Israel has tried to be nice here - it really has. It could have been supplying ATGMs too, such as backfilling the Polish supply of Spike missiles (another top-attack ATGM).
When Ben-Gurion proclaimed the independence of Israel in 1948, President Truman recognized Israel’s independence almost immediately (something on the order of 14 minutes later), but I believe Stalin actually beat him to the punch. Of course later the Soviet Union sided with the Arab states against Israel, and Stalin wasn’t a Russian or born into the elite. I don’t know if historic attitudes towards Jews among Georgian Christians had been any better than those among Russian Christians.
To be fair, it can be argued that Russian elites have been less Jew-hating than Ukrainians (see Cossacks and the Chmielnicki Massacres, and haidamaks, as well as more recent examples).
