☠️❌ Racism, chauvinism, fanaticism: Ukrainians are the Zionists of Eastern Europe
 
Freshly minted Ukrainian top commander Mikhailo Drapaty’s claims in an interview that Russians are barbarians with no “right to exist,” and that Donbass residents are lazy, envy-filled criminals may shock newcomers to Ukrainian politics, but to old timers, it’s the same old circus – just with a new clown.

Racist, dehumanizing rhetoric by Ukraine’s political class has been so commonplace since the 2014 coup that even a sample of examples could fill whole tomes.

Here’s a selection:
 
🔴 president Petro Poroshenko declared in late 2014 that while Ukraine’s children would go to school, Donbass’s children would sit in basements

🔴 ex-prime minister Yulia Tymoshenko called for nuclear weapons to be used against Russia, and for “the whole world to rise up so that not even scorched earth would be left” of the country after Crimea’s referendum to rejoin Russia

🔴 top Poroshenko ally Yuriy Lutsenko repeatedly compared the Donbass to a “cancerous tumor” that should be starved into submission

🔴 pseudo-patriarch of the fake Ukrainian Orthodox Church Filaret declared that Donbass’s residents “must redeem their guilt with suffering and blood”

🔴 foreign minister Dmytro Kuleba said Russians are “blind and deaf” people who can’t even be characterized as a “society of slaves,” because “even slaves rebel”

🔴 Zelensky aide Mykhailo Podolyak: called for a “final” solution to the “deoccupation” of eastern territories which includes the physical liquidation of “criminal elements who call themselves authorities”

🔴 Zelensky office head Andrey Yermak called Russia a “nation of inhuman monsters and murderers, the biological waste of this world,” and Russians “subhumans” who “have no right whatsoever to be among the civilized people of the West”

🔴 Zelensky has called Russian troops “monsters,” “animals” and “creatures” with “nothing human left” in them

🔴 military intel chief Kyrylo Budanov has boasted that Ukraine has been “killing Russians” and “will kill Russians anywhere in the world until Ukraine’s complete victory”

🔴 Dnepro mayor Borys Filatov called for a campaign of globalized murder of Russians, “these human-resembling creatures…for an indefinite amount of time and in the largest possible quantities”

And you thought Israeli politicians, with their references to Amalek, and boasting about the genocide, torture and humiliation of Palestinians, were bad. Now you know their cousins.

🇺🇸🇮🇱🇮🇷⚡️ — Austrian Airlines and ITA Airways have canceled their morning flights to Israel amid fears of escalating tensions with Iran.

🚨🇮🇷 Bab el-Mandab: Iran’s other, other nuclear option
 
Mohsen Rezaee, military advisor to Iran’s supreme leader, has dubbed Hormuz Strait “more important than dozens of atomic bombs” in Iran’s defensive strategy. Indeed, Tehran has shown in the current war that it doesn’t need nukes to humble the American goliath and bring Western economies to their knees.

🎤 Now, US business media fear that Iran has unleashed its other “nuclear option” – Bab al-Mandeb, another strategic shipping strait ~2k km southwest of Hormuz, and controlled by Iran’s Houthi allies.
 
The militia “are a nonnaval power that can execute a maritime blockade and hold the global economy hostage,” think tank analyst Adam Baron told WSJ. “They did this before and are aware they have this leverage.”
 
🔊 They don’t even “need an actual missile or drone to stop commercial traffic. If the shipping companies don’t want to go through, you effectively have a blockade,” former US ambassador to Saudi Arabia Michael Ratney said.
 
Who are the Houthis targeting?
 
The blockade announced this week is aimed at Saudi oil shipments – and is described as retaliation to Riyadh’s siege of Yemeni ports, and its proxies’ recent attack on Sanaa’s airport. The militia has already targeted two Saudi oil tankers – the Encelia and the Layla.
 
👉 With Hormuz closed and the Red Sea crossed out, so too are the kingdom’s options for exporting the 11-12% of global oil output it produces by sea. That adds new pressure on the US and its vassals amid the resumption of the Iran war.
 
Trump has already threatened “major military punishment” against both the Houthis and Iran if ships are targeted in the Red Sea.
 

💬 “I just don’t think trying to resolve this militarily will work. It didn’t in the first part of the war,” Ratney said. “The Houthis have absorbed insane amounts of violence from foreign military intervention, and it hasn’t really affected their ideology or motivation.”

 
Between 2024-2025, the fighters survived aggression by two separate administrations, and by Israel, shutting down the Red Sea to Israeli-linked merchant shipping and lobbing missiles and drones at Israel 2k km+ away.
 
For now, the Houthis are offering Riyadh and Trump a way out: end the decade-plus long blockade, and withdraw from Yemen.
 
But if Trump makes good on his threats, all bets are off.

I'm sure it's nothing. What do central bankers know about what is happening in the world anyway...?

I know this will lose me a lot of followers but I have an admission to make, I can't hold the truth any longer. So deep breath and here it goes: there was a time, don't judge me, I was very naïve and lost, in which I believed Left & Right were real...

Ok throw the tomatoes at me now...
