Putin invites Hamas to Moscow

In fact, he’s having all of the “anti- Zionist” terrorist groups come to Moscow including Islamic Jihad and the Palestinian Authority. Not hiding this benefactor…

Anybody still trying to defend these “freedom fighters”? Anyone confused on the Kremlin trying to hurt Joe Biden/divide Dems with this issue ahead of the elecrion? 🤔

Whenever Palestinians lack for food, medicine, and other aid - or the past entire twenty years of funds for maintenance or rebuilding of Gaza - Hamas just vanishes into thin air in regard to what's going on and how everything reached that state.

Sometimes it's easy to fall into thinking Hamas exists solely as a journalistic outfit for how they're employed in conversation.

They dare not refuse, especially as I presume they’re there for money and to strategize further plans.

I’ll be especially interested if/when Iran joins in.

I’m just glad it’s now out in the open. Any useful idiots falling for Kremlin propaganda that aims to tear down Joe Biden are now on notice

To distract from his invasion of Ukraine, to put Biden in a no win situation.
To increase US military assistance costs so GOP congress can vote down aid to Ukraine.

China ups the ante in the Pacific at the same time.

Connect the dots.

Space nukes, assassinations, palling around with sworn enemies of the west. Heck, Putin even trolls Tucker and his mouthpieces on TV mock Trump supporters.

And still, most R’s and all of the hard right, starting with their nominee-in-waiting, support him.

Maybe some enterprising editor can direct his or her staff do some reporting and shed some light on this.
