Shortly after Israel’s UN delegation left the room before Lavrov’s voting, calling RU presidency ‘a farce’, Russia bombed residential area in Judaism holy site Uman, killing 15 civilians, including 2 children. Russia’s MoD bragged about it. #RussiaIsATerroristState #RusskiyMir
The Russian #RusskiyMir ideology is utterly antisemitic. Early this full-scale invasion, the Russians shelled Babyn Yar Holocaust memorial in Kyiv and damaged Drobytsky Yar Holocaust memorial in Kharkiv. /2
The Russians destroyed two synagogues in Mariupol, a synagogue in Bakhmut, damaged a synagogue in Kharkiv. /3
While the Ukrainian commander-in-chief Zaluzhnyi celebrates Passover with the Ukrainian Chief Rabbi, the Russian Chief Rabbi had to flee from Russia and urged Jews to do the same before it is not too late. Feel the difference. /4
For those who know Russia and their #RusskiyMir concept good, this does not come as a surprise. Antisemitism and antiukrainianism were always merged in Moscow, which hated both the Jews and the Ukrainians, calling both “Nazis” (a general Russian insult) /5
The same antisemitic and antiukrainian vibe is clearly visible today in Russian propaganda. Compare these cartoons presenting @ZelenskyyUa in a way identical to Nazi cartoons from the 1940s and Soviet cartoons from the 1970s. #RusskiyMir is antisemitism plus antiukrainianism. /6
So coming back to Uman: it is not a surprise, that #RusskiyMir Russia has bombed Judaism holy site Uman on the very first day of the full-scale invasion, in the early morning February 24th, killing at least one civilian and wounding five. /7
Russia's MoD press secretary General Konashenkov officially confirmed shelling of Jewish holy site Uman and the Uman's synagogue, claiming that (no surprise) "Nazis are gathering in the synagogue". /8
Well, we all know that for Russia any Jew a Nazi. Because Russia calls "a Nazi" anyone who wants to live free and not under Russia's imperial slavery. Especially if those free people are Jews or Ukrainians, or (horrible dictu) both. /END
