Scottish rock group Primal Scream superimposed swastikas combined with Stars of David over the eyes of Netanyahu & former Israeli defense minister Gallant, as well as other global politicians, in on-stage graphics during a Monday night concert, leading a Jewish security group to file a police complaint.

They were playing at the historic Roundhouse venue in north London & performed their 2000 single “Swastika Eyes.”

The context is probably oil, sea control, so on. They know they are on the edge when it comes to global dominance, and that it was their last chance to defeat NATO, so they resorted to realpolitik. Does not mean we should be for conquering a free and innocent country like Ukraine.

Probably? Don't guess, investigate.

A great thinker (Mao zedong) once said: "no investigation no right to speak"

Oh sure, countries invade for resources all the time, it makes sense in the geopolitical context, and we had prior examples of this happening, but I have to go find citations from several authority figures to prove what's obvious.

If there's two of you, and one of you ate the apple, and you know it's not you.

Are you going to spend time investigating?

Again, I don't buy the NATO aggression story, and I wanted to be generous and not use the Putin wants to restart the USSR theory, so what is left there?

Resource scarcity/survival.

I don’t buy the NATO aggression story

Do you consider topling governments to privatize everything and sell weapons to also not as aggression?

not use the Putin wants to restart the USSR theory

Not sure where you got the idea from, but I dont think anyone seriously belives this

Who said that we were? Analysis is not justification.

The root cause for Russia to resort to realpolitik is NATO Eastward expansion aka expanding the market for western weapons manufacturers and increasing the demand for weapons by provoking conflict

...there's our difference, I just don't buy that story, because I'm not team-codded. I'm pro-Palestine, anti-Ukraine.

You don't buy the western imperialist story when they support a genocide in Palestine, but buy it when they support a banderist regime in Ukraine for them to privatize everything for western capital... Ok
