Herzl's heritage of #Zionism still triggers conflicts. @F_Zatari dailysabah.com/op-ed/2018/01/…
Currently, Zionism is the cause and culprit of the conflict in Palestine as this conflict never existed before the establishment of the Zionist movement in 1897.
More specifically, the establishment of the Zionist movement in the West and the consequences of its paramilitary activities in Palestine is the core cause for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

#MH17 JIT statement on the @mod_russia presser:
"In May 2018 the JIT specifically requested information concerning numbers found on several recovered missile parts." but Russia left them unanswered, I guess they prefer to communicate via press conference

#MH17 JIT - "The JIT will meticulously study the materials presented today as soon as the Russian Federation makes the relevant documents available to the JIT as requested in May 2018 and required by UNSC resolution 2166."
Here the #MH17 JIT effectively calls the Russian Ministry of Defence out as liars:

Malaysia = 1MDB = connected to the #WorldMobCoup. Keep that in mind as you read about #MH370 today.
And remember that Malaysia Airlines flight 17, #MH17 was shot down over Ukraine by a RUSSIAN MISSILE (per Netherlands & Australian gov’ts) in July 2014. reuters.com/article/us-mal…
1MDB is connected to Elliot Broidy of TrumpWorld

4 years ago tomorrow (July 17, 2014), Malaysia Airlines Flight #MH17 was shot down by the Russian 53rd Anti-Aircraft Missile Brigade, killing all 298 men, women and children aboard. #TreasonSummit #HelsinkiSummit
Not an auspicious beginning.
• Kremlin describes very different agenda than Trump
• Trump makes no mention of election interference in his opening remarks
• congratulates Russia on the World Cup – but not the winner, France

No puppet. #TreasonSummit interc.pt/2uoi9xI
Russia seconds #Trump’s tweet blaming U.S. for bad relations theintercept.com/2018/07/16/liv…

Could all players and fans at the @FIFAWorldCup please remember that Russia is currently invading Ukraine and therefore it isn't polite to express support for Ukraine. It hurts Russians' feelings.
Take some basic etiquette lessons. In Russian if you say "в Украину" to mean "to Ukraine" it hurts their feelings because they don't consider Ukraine to be a country. Say "на Украину" to indicate that you think Ukraine is just a territory on the edge of Russia.
In Russia, don't say that Russia invaded Ukraine. Say that volunteers from Russia have gone to Ukraine to save the Russian-speaking population from a fascist genocide.

Fairly predictable reaction from Kremlin / pro-Kremlin voices to the latest #MH17 findings: dismiss, distort and distract. But not, so far, dismay.

medium.com/dfrlab/putinat…
Dismiss, such as the Russian MFA calling the investigation "openly biased and lopsided."

And both MFA and MoD complaining it "completely ignored" evidence.
Not to mention RT and Sputnik using language which, let's say, doesn't seem to be straining too hard for impartiality.

"Infamous," for example.

(Note that's not marked as a direct quote, so editorially, it belongs to RT.)

This has been the French stance since 2014. Robust measures against Russian breaches of international law, conciliatory language in the Gaullist tradition of "Lisbon to Vladivostok" to give Putin and successors an off ramp and position France well if there is a shift to detente
So the balance Macron worked through was in a continuity with signals sent by France and the EU since 2014. If Russia opts to de-escalate in Donbas and back off Ukraine, Crimea will be isolated through sanctions that don't affect the rest of Russia
The outcome for Ukraine the EU has clearly signalled it can live with is a Cyprus scenario. Where the aggressor keeps some gains that are isolated by sanctions but backs off the rest of Ukraine. Once de-escalation happens back to business as usual

Thread: Interesting to look at online traffic on #MH17 over the past day and a half.

Hamilton68 shows that it's the top theme being discussed in the Kremlin, pro-Kremlin and fellow-traveller spheres.

But it doesn't look like the message is getting through...
This is a @sysomos scan of traffic on MH17 since yesterday morning.

Almost 150,000 tweets.

First spike: JIT naming the 53rd Brigade as the source of the missile.

Second spike: NL and Aus holding Russia responsible.
These are the ten most-retweeted tweets.

Dominated by breaking news and factual reporting, such as @RFERL, @BBCBreaking, @SpectatorIndex.

We at @bellingcat have finally published our report revealing the identity of #MH17 person of interest 'Andrei Ivanovich' (Orion) -- it's GRU officer Oleg Ivannikov, who previously served as Minister of Defense of South Ossetia (yes, seriously).
bellingcat.com/news/uk-and-eu…
Ivannikov served as Minister of Defense in South Ossetia from 2006-8 under the pseudonym of 'Andrei Ivanovich Laptev'. In 2012, he headed up a new think tank focusing on the breakaway republics of Georgia before going to Ukraine in 2014.
bellingcat.com/news/uk-and-eu…
We made the discovery by a series of connections from the phone number published in the original intercepted phone conversations related to MH17.

When Russia downed MH17 over Ukraine, I thought surely that’s the West’s wake-up call to Putin’s shocking aggression. 4 yrs later, Russia uses the same playbook to avoid culpability—deny, lie & kick up the propaganda machine. Truth’s a great antidote👉NEW JIT investigation video
Netherlands, Australia Hold #Russia Responsible for 2014 Shooting Down of Malaysian Airliner #MH17, Killing All 298 Passengers. Russian response to indisputable evidence identifying 🇷🇺army, 🇷🇺missile & 🇷🇺soldiers? Same old denials & #disinformation. npr.org/sections/thetw…
Russia masked its invasion of Ukraine w/ propaganda about "separatists" & "civil war." Flight MH17–downed by Russian forces w/ Russian equipment–blew the lid off Russia's lies, I wrote in 2015. It took time, but the Kremlin's finally busted for its terror. eastwestblog.net/2015/07/18/rus…

The #MH17 investigation is about to hold a press conference. Widely expected to make clear responsibility for the shoot down.
A reminder: Malaysian Airlines MH17 was en route from Amterdamn to Kuala Lumpur when it was shot down over east Ukraine on July 17, 2014. All 298 on board were killed.
Previous conclusion: MH17 was downed by a BUK 9M38 series fired from Russian-backed separatist controlled territory

"Every dictator, when the economy finally betrays them, must create the image of a besieged fortress." - @Kasparov63 on why dictators create national enemies.

#PutinCon
In America, consider how Trump uses this strategy. For Trump, the alleged #FakeNews media is the national enemy.

#PutinCon
teaches #PutinCon about the '99 Russian apartment bombings, an episode where Putin's gov't bombed his own people & framed the Chechens.

It was Russia's reichstag event & Russia's autocratic history since can only be viewed with this context.

The best way to gauge the Kremlin’s complicity is to consider that its involvement is directly proportionate to the number of conspiracy theories being floated by #Russia’s state media (e.g. #MH17). With respect to #Skripal, numerous “alternative story plots” are already in play.
Russia’s state media #Skripal conspiracy theory No.1:
“Accidental exposure”
Porton Down, where the Brits were experimenting with the same types of nerve agents, is located next door to where Skripal and his daughter were found.

In combinatie met goed getimede storingen in het donorregister, regelmatige bezoekjes aan vergrijzingstehuizen en hypermoderne mobiele uitbeenklinieken, kan Nederland een bloeiende orgaanindustrie tegemoet zien. #donorwet #sleepwet
Met een goed functionerend #sleepwet|netwerk kunnen geschikte kandidaat-orgaandonoren worden opgespoord en nog dezelfde dag een in vertrouwen overeengekomen vrijwillige bijdrage in natura leveren. #donorwet
#Holleeder wekt een betrouwbaarder indruk dan de gemiddelde politicus afkomstig uit de andere als politieke partijen geregistreerde organisaties, dus dat zal het vertrouwen in de politiek alleen maar goed doen.
