Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky took to Twitter [1] Sunday to express heartfelt gratitude to Facebook owner Mark Zuckerberg for taking a clear stand on the Ukraine crisis and letting users violate rules against hate speech: “War is not only a military opposition on UA land. It is also a fierce battle in the informational space. I want to thank @Meta and other platforms that have an active position that help and stand side by side with the Ukrainians.”
“As a result of the Russian invasion of Ukraine we have
temporarily made allowances for forms of political expression that would
normally violate our rules like violent speech such as ‘death to the Russian
invaders.’ We still won’t allow credible calls for violence against Russian
civilians,” a Meta spokesperson said
in a statement [2] March 11.
It naturally piques the curiosity why the social media
behemoth is bending over backwards to violate its own longstanding regulations
against hate speech to let Zelensky win the propaganda war in “the
informational space” unless one takes into account the obvious fact that both
Zuckerberg and Zelensky are Zionist Jews and take orders from Israel’s
clandestine security agencies.
Born to Oleksandr Zelensky and Rymma Zelenska, both
Russian-speaking Jews, in Jan. 1978, Volodymyr Zelensky was groomed by covert
Mossad operatives in Ukraine since his student life while he was studying law
at the Kryvyi Rih National University.
Instead of pursuing legal career, he chose acting as a
profession at the behest of his influential patrons to gain nationwide
publicity, particularly through comedy television series “Servant of the
People” in which Zelensky “prophetically played” the role of the Ukrainian
president.
In fact, his production company Kvartal 95, which produces
films, cartoons and television shows, was generously funded by deep pockets of
Zionist billionaires. Comically exposing corruption and sleazy dealings of
Ukraine’s politician and oligarch, the series “Servant of the People” aired
from 2015 to 2019 and struck a chord with Ukrainian masses.
Riding on the wave of media publicity, Zelensky won a
landslide presidential election in 2019. Later, his political party, which he
“coincidentally” named “Servant of the People,” won an overwhelming victory in
a snap legislative election held shortly after his inauguration as president.
In the 2001 census, a third of Ukraine’s over 40 million
population registered Russian as their first language. In fact, Russian
speakers constitute a majority in urban areas of industrialized eastern Ukraine
and socio-culturally identify with Russia. Ukrainian speakers are mainly found
in sparsely populated western Ukraine and in rural areas of east Ukraine.
Russian, Belarusian and Ukrainian together belong to East
Slavic family of languages and share a degree of mutual intelligibility. Thus,
Russians, Byelorussians and Ukrainians are one nation and one country whose
shared history and culture goes all the way back to the golden period of 10th
century Kyivan Rus’.
What do Ukrainians have in common with NATO powers, their
newfound patrons, besides the fact that humanitarian imperialists are
attempting to douse fire by pouring gasoline on Ukraine’s proxy war by
providing caches of lethal weapons to militant forces holding disenfranchised
Ukrainian masses hostage.
Russians and Ukrainians share Byzantine heritage and their
longstanding dispute with Zionist Jews goes back to the medieval era. Byzantine
emperors regarded Jewish subjects as gentiles and were particularly wary of
wealthy Jewish merchants maintaining a stranglehold over banking and commerce
sectors of the empire.
In addition, Russians and Ukrainians together belong to the
Greek Orthodox Church, one of the oldest Christian denominations whose history
goes all the way back to the Christ and his apostles. Protestantism and
Catholicism are products of the second millennium after a Roman bishop of the
Byzantine Empire declared himself pope following the 1054 schism between the
Orthodox and Catholic Churches.
Since 2019, after being elected president through
questionable methods, Zelensky has surreptitiously been working on a
clandestine project to foment a crisis with Russia on a flimsy pretext. Any
other political leader with an iota of rational faculties, even somebody as
rogue as his predecessor Petro Poroshenko, would promptly have agreed to the
Kremlin’s reasonable proposal that Kyiv must give a solemn pledge it won’t join
transatlantic NATO military alliance.
Not only did he scornfully rebuff the Russian proposal but
he also let Ukraine’s security forces stage joint military exercises and naval
drills alongside NATO forces in the Black Sea right under Russia’s nose. His
reckless disregard for suffering of Ukrainian masses with whom he does not identify
being a Zionist himself and suicidally provoking Russia into an armed
confrontation aside, he is merely a pawn in the grand scheme of things.
Israel’s Zionist regime, to whom not only Ukrainian but also
American presidents bow, has a score to settle with Russia. Donald Trump
literally forced four Arab states, the UAE, Bahrain, Sudan and Morocco, to sign
so-called Abraham Accords lending official recognition to Israel at the coaxing
of his Jewish son-in-law Jared Kushner and in order to canvass Zionist lobbies
for support in the run-up to Nov. 2020 presidential elections.
Washington’s principal objective in Syria’s proxy war was
ensuring Israel’s regional security. The United States Defense Intelligence
Agency’s declassified
report [3] of 2012 clearly spelled out the imminent rise of a Salafist
principality in northeastern Syria – in Raqqa and Deir al-Zor which were
occupied by the Islamic State from 2014 to October 2017 – in the event of an
outbreak of a civil war in Syria.
Under pressure from the Zionist lobbies in Washington,
however, the Obama administration deliberately suppressed the report and also
overlooked the view in general that a proxy war in Syria would give birth to
radical Islamic jihadists.
The hawks in Washington were fully aware of the consequences
of their actions in Syria, but they kept pursuing the ill-fated policy of
nurturing militants in the training camps located in Syria’s border regions
with Turkey and Jordan in order to weaken the anti-Zionist Bashar al-Assad
government.
The single biggest threat to Israel’s regional security was
posed by the Iranian resistance axis, comprising Iran, Syria and Lebanon-based
Hezbollah. During the course of 2006 Lebanon War, Hezbollah fired hundreds of
rockets into northern Israel and Israel’s defense community realized for the
first time the nature of threat that Hezbollah posed to Israel’s regional
security.
Those were only unguided rockets but it was a wakeup call
for Israel’s military strategists that what would happen if Iran passed the
guided missile technology to Hezbollah whose area of operations lies very close
to the northern borders of Israel.
Therefore, the Zionist lobbies in Washington persuaded the
Obama administration to orchestrate a proxy war against Damascus and Lebanon-based
Hezbollah in order to dismantle the Iranian resistance axis against Israel.
But following the beginning of the Ukraine crisis in 2014
after Russia occupied the Crimean peninsula and Washington imposed sanctions on
Russia, the Kremlin’s immediate response to the escalation by Washington was
that it jumped into the fray in Syria in September 2015, after a clandestine
visit to Moscow by General Qassem Soleimani, the slain commander of the IRGC’s
Quds Force who was assassinated in an American airstrike on a tip-off from the
Israeli intelligence at the Baghdad airport on January 3, 2020.
When Russia deployed its forces and military hardware to
Syria in September 2015, the militant proxies of Washington, the Zionist regime
and their regional clients were on the verge of driving a wedge between
Damascus and the Alawite heartland of coastal Latakia, which could have led to
the imminent downfall of the Bashar al-Assad government.
With the help of Russia’s air power and long-range artillery,
the Syrian government has since reclaimed most of Syria’s territory from the
insurgents, excluding Idlib in the northwest occupied by Turkish-backed
militants and Deir al-Zor and the Kurdish-held areas in the east, thus
inflicting a humiliating defeat on Washington, the Zionist regime and their
regional allies, Turkey, Jordan and the Gulf States.
Over the years, Israel has not only provided material
support to militant groups battling Damascus – particularly to various factions
of the Free Syria Army (FSA) and al-Qaeda’s Syrian affiliate al-Nusra Front in
Daraa and Quneitra bordering the Israel-occupied Golan Heights – but Israel’s
air force has virtually played the role of the air force of the terrorists and
mounted hundreds of airstrikes in Syria during the decade-long conflict.
In an interview
to New York Times [4] in January 2019, Israel’s former Chief of Staff Lt.
General Gadi Eisenkot confessed that the Netanyahu government approved his
recommendations in January 2017 to step up airstrikes in Syria. Consequently,
more than 200 Israeli airstrikes were launched on the Syrian targets in 2017
and 2018, as revealed
[5] by Israeli Intelligence Minister Israel Katz in September 2018.
In 2018 alone, Israel's air force dropped 2,000 bombs in
Syria. The purported rationale of the Israeli airstrikes in Syria has been to
degrade Iran’s guided missile technology provided to Damascus and Lebanon-based
Hezbollah, which poses an existential threat to Israel’s regional security.
Though after Russia provided S-300 air defense system to the
Syrian military after a Russian surveillance aircraft was shot down by Syrian
air defenses during an Israeli incursion into the Syrian airspace on September
2018, killing 15 Russians onboard, Israeli airstrikes in Syria have been
significantly scaled down.
Following the friendly-fire incident, though Israel has mounted
occasional airstrikes at the capital Damascus, in Daraa and Quneitra in southern
Syria and Deir al-Zor in eastern Syria, Israeli airstrikes in northwest Syria,
including Aleppo, Hamah and Homs, which is within the range of advanced missile
defense systems deployed at Khmeimim Air Base near coastal Latakia, have almost
entirely ceased.
Last month, the Kremlin issued an unequivocal
condemnation [6] of recent Israeli airstrikes in Syria as “crude violation”
of Syria's sovereignty that up until now were reluctantly tolerated by the
Russian forces based in Syria’s Tartus naval base and Khmeimim airbase
southeast of Latakia, and also pledged that the Russian Air Force would conduct
joint air patrols alongside the Syrian Air Force that would pre-empt the
likelihood of further Israeli airstrikes.
“Israel’s continuing strikes against targets inside Syria
cause deep concern,” Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said.
“They are a crude violation of
Syria’s sovereignty and may trigger a sharp escalation of tensions.
Also, such actions pose serious risks to international passenger flights.”
Although Israel claims its air campaign in Syria is meant to
target Iran-backed militias, the airstrikes often kill Syrian soldiers. Syrian
state media said one soldier was killed and five more were wounded in one of
the latest Israeli attacks at Damascus, which occurred on Feb. 9.
Russia has held talks with Israel on Syria, and said last
month it would begin joint air patrols with Syria. The patrols will include
areas near the Golan Heights in southern Syria bordering Israel, a frequent
site of the Israeli airstrikes, and Israel is said to be considering
discontinuing the strikes altogether or slowing them down significantly.
The Times of Israel noted that this marked a momentous
change in policy for Russia: “Following the patrol, Ynet reported that Israeli
military officials were holding talks with Russian army officers to calm
tensions.”
The report added, “Israeli officials were struggling to
understand why Russia, which announced that such joint patrols were expected to
be a regular occurrence moving forward, had apparently changed its policy
toward Israel.” The report claimed that Israel might limit its air campaign in
Syria as a result of Russia’s inexplicable policy reversal in Syria.
In conclusion, it favored Israel’s strategic objectives to
escalate the conflict in Ukraine in order to divert Russia’s attention and
military resources to Eastern Europe, as the Zionist regime would then get a
free hand to mount airstrikes in Syria and Lebanon with impunity, and might
even attempt to rekindle decade-long proxy war alongside its Gulf Arab, Turkish
and Jordanian allies in order to eliminate security threat posed by Iran-led
resistance axis comprising Syria and Lebanon-based Hezbollah once and for all.
