Statement comes after shooting and fire at Russian concert hall kills more than 100 people and injures more than 100 more

The US secretary of state Antony Blinken condemned Friday’s terrorist attack in Moscow in a statement Saturday afternoon, calling the shooting a “heinous crime”.

“We condemn terrorism in all of its forms and stand in solidarity with the people of Russia in grieving the loss of life from this horrific event,” Blinken said in the statement. “We send our deepest condolences to the families and loved ones of those killed and all affected by this heinous crime.”

    Good. I may not like Russia for a lot of reasons, but nothing justifies this sort of shit.

            Most of that “everywhere else in the world” of Jewish people actually hate you fuckers for providing financial support to antisemitic politicians because it leads to them being bullied into becoming more settlers for you to murder Arab children with, but hey, why let the real world sentiments get in the way of an ethno-nationalist lie?

        FUCK OFF MAN. You were banned for a reason. No one wants your raggedy, schizo-zionist-fascist word salad here. You are a fucking joke and have to resort to making new accounts because NO ONE CARES ABOUT YOUR SHITTY WORLDVIEW.

        Are you capable of discussion or are you just capable of copy pasta?

        So do you think anything justifies genocide? I.e. so you think there is some act so heinous that the systematic erasure of a people is justified?

        Because it sounds like you do. It sounds like ‘Never Again’ means nothing to you.

        Well maybe if Israel hadn’t reservationized them first there wouldn’t be these massacres to begin with!

        The middle east had been a historic haven for the Jews from European discrimination before the Zionists decided settler shit is totally cool if someone on a completely different continent does bad shit to you first.

        Were the Americans justified in trying to wipe out the Native Americans by how many of them had fled discrimination in Europe first?

        Were the Afrikaaners justified in doing it to the Bantu people because they didn’t want to be British subjects?

        Does the large share of Australia’s and New Zealand’s populations that are Irish and Scottish excuse what they did to the Aborigines and Maori?

        Are all those Indigenous Americans, Bantu folks, Aborigines, and Maori people terrorists for having the gall to shoot back at the people actively taking their land?
