The Russians are making themselves a stench to the world with their open support of the violent cult of death terrorist group Hamas. Now, they are claiming Israel does not have a right to defend itself against Hamas’ brutal slaughtering of innocent civilians, including children and infants, and they’ve done so at the UN.
Vasily Nebenzya said at an emergency special session of the UN General Assembly, “The only thing they can muster is continued pronouncements about Israel’s supposed right to self defense, although as an occupying power, it does not have that power as confirmed by the advisory opinion of the International Court of Justice handed down in 2004.” They are all but calling for the extermination of the state of Israel, which would mean the extermination of the Jews.
ED.NOTE: While this writer has plenty of critiques of Israel’s handling of this war, the fundamental right of Israel to exist and defend itself is beyond question in my mind. Any state denying these facts should be considered a bloodthirsty rogue state that deserves no place in civil society.

Israel has no right to defend itself as it is an occupying power, Russia’s representative to the United Nations, Vasily Nebenzya, said at an emergency special session of the UN General Assembly on Wednesday.
“The only thing they can muster is continued pronouncements about Israel’s supposed right to self defense, although as an occupying power, it does not have that power as confirmed by the advisory opinion of the International Court of Justice handed down in 2004,” said the Russian representative.
