If barbos' posts are representative for the mainstream Russian viewpoint, then the hope for an eventually de-Putinized, peaceful, and democratic Russia feels completely in vain for the foreseeable future.

An Iranian source. How reliable. Not.

I would say that it is a bit more complicated than that half of the country preferred to go with Russia. It was more that younger Ukrainians all across Ukraine wanted a Western future rather than one with Russia. As time went by, Russia saw that the Ukrainian electorate really wasn't into...

The guy is gonna fuck you over.

I am not. It is simply not something that is common in Sweden, unless you are Jewish or Muslim.

At which point does it become a grand conspiracy theory to assert that what all the media and the NGOs report from Gaza is not true, but a hoax perpetrated by Hamas?

More and more experts have been classifying it as a genocide for a while now.

I am not sure that is the whole story. The Israeli Druze are loyal to Israel, but the Druze in Syria and Lebanon tend not to be friendly of Israel. The inhabitants of the Golan Heights (mostly Druze) have largely rejected Israeli citizenship because they consider themselves to be Syrians.

Have you ever looked at Israeli public opinion polls? Nearly half of Jewish Israelis want to expel Arabs, survey shows Or listened to Netanyahu's statements? Benjamin Netanyahu says Israel is ‘not a state of all its citizens’ Look at your own country. If a politician said that the US is not...

In which way do you think it is antisemitic? It criticizes the Israeli government and the Israeli state. It does not bash Jews.

Really? You think the article is antisemitic?

Israel’s One-State Reality Reading this article really changed my perception of the conflict. It retrospect it shouldn't have, because it was obvious all along, I was just too stupid to notice. I would like for those here more supportive of Israel to read it and comment on it.

Cult or not, they are being duped by a conman.

The beam in your own eyes…

His grip on power is decidedly more shaky now than before February 2022. And you are correct, Putin doesn't care about the Russian people. He cares about the Russian Empire as an idea, an abstract concept, and himself as its Tsar.

This is very unlikely. Russia loses way more from this war than if Ukraine would also sell some gas. Putin's ultimatum back in December 2021 made it clear what it is about: Geopolitics. Putin doesn't want Ukraine to leave Russia's sphere of influence. It is for the same reason that they...

This may or may not have been posted, but it gives an atheist Biblical scholar's point of view. She is basically arguing that Occam's razor makes a historical Jesus more likely than not. The video is just five minutes long. Did Jesus Exist?
