I am the generation who witnessed the collapse of the Soviet Union, the transformation of many ex-Soviet countries into liberal democracies.
Now I witness the Western left deaf and mute to #UkraineCrisis; even defending Russia. 1/
Here is Britain’s #JeremyCorbyn openly blaming #NATO; not Russia for #UkraineCrisis.
The same dude who rant against Israel aggression, didn’t voice any support for the people of #Ukraine.
It is, as if the Russian bullying of Ukraine is halal. 2/
Here is Spain’s ruling party openly singing the previous national anthem of the Soviet Union, while #Putin threatening European frontiers.
How pathetic is that?

#UkraineCrisis
I also vividly remember the anti-war marches against the war in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Why there is no anti-war marches against Russia?
The left that downplayed 9/11, now *understand* Russia’s security concerns.
Laughable if not sick 4/
Even the Arab world, the admiration of Russia is rekindled.
The same #Putin, who helped Assad butchering thousands of Syrians is now labelled as “Tsar” standing against America.

5/
Make no mistake, even if Putin invade #Ukraine, and images of blood suffering emerges on global medias, the leftist troops will continue standing by him and blame NATO for the bloodshed.
Putin is already winning. He revived the myth of #Russia glory even if reality is different.

I see many comparing #UkraineCrisis with #Iraq 2003, when the US falsely claimed that Saddam had weapons of mass destruction.
While, I am critical of Biden administration pushing panic button, I believe
this comparison is ludicrously wrong 1/
For a starter:
-Colin Powell’s claim about weapons of mass destruction was unproven.
-In the Ukraine case, satellite images are available for anyone to see.
Putin will not gather 100Ks of troops in winter for fun!
2/
Second:
It is Russia who is threatening #Ukraine, citing security concerns.
The US has made it clear it won’t send troops to Ukraine and has Zero appetite to go into a war.
The only threat Biden administration announced is “sanction”
That is a far cry from the Iraq scenario! 3/

1/ The summit cements the strong trilateral relations in #EastMed and proves that their alliance in neither reactionary nor temporary.
It is also multi-modal with economic, political, and security aspects.
3/ As @YanniKouts said on @skynewsarabia this is the first time to have electricity link between Europe and Africa.
Also liquifying Cyprus gas will help ease EU dependency on Russian gas

شتان بين #محمد_صلاح و #ابوتريكة
كلاهما من ريف #مصر، ولكن الاول ذكائه جعله مواطن عالمي من الدرجه الاولي، والثاني سخر ذكائه لخدمه أيديولوجية ظلاميه تستغل عاطفه الناس.
هذا هو ابن #مصر #محمد_صلاح يسخر شهرته لخدمه الانسانيه.
في الوقت الذي يستخدم #ابوتريكة الانسانيه حجه ليكسب تعاطف رخيص من الجماهير
لو كان #ابوتريكة شجاع كان اعتذر عن التعليق علي المباراه من الاول واعترف بدوافعه الحقيقيه وهي الاحتجاج علي شراء #السعوديه نادي #نيوكاسل، ولكنه ككل اخوانجي جبان ويختبئ وراء ذرائع واهيه

Shame on @POTUS to go ahead and appoints pro-Mullahs @Rob_Malley as his envoy on #Iran.
What a disaster

#Biden has handed the keys of the levant and Yemen to the Mullahs
nytimes.com/2021/01/28/us/…
Yes, there is no better “for the Mullahs” to appoint their favourite man in DC.
Knowledge is dangerous when ideological outlook is in sync with American enemies.
Triumphant #Zarif, standing next to his Turkish FM,
sensed @POTUS’s soft approach
and laying his Mullahs masters terms and conditions.

#Lebanon’s #Tripoli is the poorest city in the #Mediterranean, with marginalised #Sunni population with reported of 80% uneducated, high unemployment, well before #BeirutBlast
No wonder the city’s youth had enough and protest against #lockdown
Thus far, one dead & 200+ injured
#Lebanon
Traditionally, the #Hariri’s Mustaqbel party is the patron of Sunnis, but thanks to Saad Hariri’s weak leadership, Sunnis, especially in #Tripoli, are now under the influence of Salafi sheikhs and even #Erdogan’s #Turkey

This is @POTUS’s first unwise FP decision, since his inauguration.
To put hold on F-35s sale to #UAE is an indirect sabotage of the #AbrahamAccords with #Israel.
Shame ... Shame.. Shame...

uk.finance.yahoo.com/news/us-puts-h…
Absolutely!
Why @POTUS wants to resurrect the Middle East problems of the Obama years?
#UAE #F35
Credit to @POTUS and @SecBlinken, Arabs are losing faith in peace. If the US continues with such approach, many youth will think Iran’s terror approach is what the US leadership prefers.
