#3 Look guys - these dirty jews have to be stopped, they just attacked Russia. We cant live in a world that allows these people to keep pulling their dirty jew tricks. Russia must act now. Kill the Jews!!! A source I read and my sources are usually solid: Videos online appear to show Israel striking Russia's Hmeimim Air Base... but the targets seen being struck... Iranian munitions using the perceived safety of the Russian base as they were being transported to the Iranian proxy, Hezbollah. |
