You know what’s completely ridiculous? Your black or white view of the world. Reality is that there is no benevolent state or any kind of financially succesful entity that isn’t built on some form of exploitation. The Western system is evil. So is Russia for sure. China. UAE and the Saudis. You have India now rising by building strong ties with USA and Israel. There’s no geopolitical force that’s built on good. That you’re incapable of realising that and just go “West bad so everyone else good” is quite telling about you. Besides, Russian Jews - strongly overrepresented in the oligarchs statistics - traditionally have strong ties to the Israeli state and Zionism. Russia’s - like everyone else’s - current interests are only based on what they perceive to be the most gainful. If Putin could’ve benefitted from siding with Israel instead of the China-Iran-Assad axis he would’ve done so immediately. To even suggest that Russia is anti-Zionist out of benevolence is insane.

Besides you now say he has “Russian roots” but right before you were attempting to convince people that he was “Ukrainian”. So
