The Rift Between Russia and Israel: How Propaganda Shapes Perceptions of the Israel-Gaza Conflict

Although the propagandists began their talk about the war in Israel with a sentence condemning Hamas’ attacks on civilians, what followed was nothing but lamentations about how terribly Israel is treating the people of Gaza, that Palestinians are being exterminated simply because they are Palestinians. In fact, a person who gets his information only from television has a clear idea that Israel, which was attacked “repeatedly”, has started a genocide against the people of Gaza, which is supported by the whole Western world, and Russia is the only major power that cares about the fate of innocent civilians.

Solovyov again drew his usual parallels, that in the last century Jews were killed only because they are Jews, now the whole world hates Russians only because they are Russians, and now the Palestinians have also joined this list. In fact, with this discourse, Russia ideologically marked itself as the defender of the Palestinians and therefore of Iran against the hostile West.

The rift between Russia and Israel

The international press reports that the Kremlin has not released a message of condolence to the country after Hamas’s surprise attack on Israel, a diplomatic gesture of goodwill that Russia regularly sends to world leaders after deadly incidents on their soil. This shows that Russia has no warm feelings towards Israel, even though the country refused to participate in Western sanctions against Russia, which greatly offended Kyiv, which accused Israel of ignoring the suffering of Ukrainian Jews.
