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.”

      except on Jews, remember man, according to the Fediverse, Islamic terrorism is heinous except against Jews, when Jews are their targets the world rallies for the Islamic terrorists in every major city in the world, marching in the tens of thousands for the destruction of the only Jewish homeland, and safety generations of Jews subject to worldwide massacre have ever known. remember man “nothing justifies this sort of shit” except if it’s against the Jews, because just like thousand of years of Pogroms, and Inquisition, and Holocaust, this time they really have it coming

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

        So 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.

            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.

        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?

    As always, I have no issue with the Russian people, regardless of my (very poor) opinion of the Russian government.

    We’re all in this together. Innocent people were killed; everyone should mourn the murder of people who are just trying to live their lives.

    on the day Russia vetoed a ceasefire between Hamas and Israel, because it wasn’t fair enough to the Islamic terrorists

    hoisted on their own petard. chef’s kiss enjoy, you cossack motherfuckers

    lol, cmon man, russia invaded crimea 10 years ago, they invaded ukraine 2+ years ago, some segments of the russian popluation (not the rich or well connected or even middle classes mind you) have seen their young, and old fed into the wood chipper that is the ukrainian warfront, and still, after navalny was imprisoned then murdered by the regime in broad daylight, the russian people can’t even find it within themselves to stage any real sort of protest against their despot that threatens the entire world

    russians are who we thought they were, they do not change, they feel no shared responsibility for the well being of humanity, only themselves

    villains

      Man if the world worked more like what you expect of the Russian people Bibi would have been lynched by his own entrails by the Israeli people by now for meat grindering them to chase the dream of exterminating the Palestinian people and controlling everything between the Nile and Euphrates.
