Israel’s Knesset passed a resolution rejecting the establishment of a Palestinian state on Thursday.

The bill, co-sponsored by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s coalition along with right-wing parties in the opposition, was passed by an overwhelming majority of 68 votes, with only nine MKs voting against it.

Benny Gantz, seen by many leaders in the West as a more moderate figure than Netanyahu, voted in favour of the bill, along with his party.

    Look, you’ve accused me of lying, you’ve misrepresented what I say, you stubbornly refuse to understand what I’m saying, and you don’t seem to have any understand of the situation you’re passionately arguing about.

    I’m just gonna block you.

          You: “Russia isn’t claiming Ukraine”

          Dmitry Medvedev: “Ukraine is definitely Russia”

          Square that away for us then

              I guess the Russian army was invading Kyiv to give everyone flowers then back in 2022? Again, they’re only claiming parts of Ukraine right now instead of the whole thing as a part of their information op to make Ukraine look like they’re the party that is unwilling to negotiate. The Russian government might as well be a rug, all they do is lie.

                Russia says that the purpose of their operation in Kyiv was to destroy military stockpiles of munitions that were located there, and wasn’t intended to be an occupation.

                But even if that’s not true, occupying a place militarily is not the same as claiming legal ownership of it.

                Again, they’re only claiming parts of Ukraine right now instead of the whole thing as a part of their information op to make Ukraine look

                So you agree that Russia is not claiming Ukraine.

                You’re saying (based on unprovable speculation) that Russia has secret plans to claim Ukraine in the future. I don’t have a crystal ball, so I can’t know if that’s true or not. But even if it is, that’s not the same as saying that Russia currently claims Ukraine.

                  I’m saying that official positions of the Russian government regularly change and only serve their imperialist ambitions with whatever is convenient in the moment. They clearly have no qualms with annexing territory they previously claimed they would not. When you look at the sum of their actions and rhetoric it is clear that Vladimir Putin’s goal is the restoration of the Russian empire. Seriously, read his speeches and watch what is said on Russian state TV. Julia Davis does a great job over at Russian Media Monitor
