    As critical as I have been of Israeli politics and actions in Gaza, I am floored that this meeting not only occurred, but appears to use a photo opportunity!

    Remember when Putin said Russia invaded Ukraine because there were Nazis in charge? I wonder how he feels about someone who meets with them?

      Somehow European far right groups always seem to have Russia, China and/or Israel backing them…

      With all the people being called Nazis nowadays, the true meaning of what Nazi or fascist is is being diluted. It’s used as the strongest way of accusing an opponent, however it doesn’t matter what ideology they subscribe to or what actions constitute brune a Nazi.

      This is worrisome. It diluted the term and pages the way for nationalistic, autocratic rulers that use a populist brush to paint their opponents as the baddies.

      When the Houthis offer safe passage to genocidal Russians and genocidal Chinese (everyone forgets the Uygurs), then you know their attacks on merchant ships aren’t really about genocide. Crossfire Hurricane.
