Hundreds storm airport in Russia in antisemitic riot over arrival of plane from Israel
Hundreds of people stormed into the main airport in Russia’s Dagestan region and onto the landing field seeking passengers arriving from Tel Aviv, Israel, according to Russian news agencies and social media postings.
Hundreds of people stormed into the main airport in Russia’s Dagestan region and onto the landing field Sunday, chanting antisemitic slogans and seeking passengers arriving on a flight from Tel Aviv, Israel, Russian news agencies and social media reported.
Russian news reports said the crowd surrounded the airliner, which belonged to Russian carrier Red Wings.
Authorities closed the airport in Makhachkala, the capital of the predominantly Muslim region, and police converged on the facility. Dagestan’s Ministry of Health said more than 20 people were injured, with two in critical condition. It said the injured included police officers and civilians.
Jew-hate is alive and well in the country purporting to be stamping out neo-nazis in Ukraine. The irony needs no seasoning.
It doesn't seem like neo-Nazism in this case but rather the long standing hate by Muslims if it makes any difference. From the news coverage I've seen of this, it seems like it was a mob of Muslims waving Palestinian flags.
“We are the victims!” while they threaten and attack everyone that doesn’t agree
Also, pretending that they care about Arabs, who we know they hate as much or worse than Jews.
As far as I understand; nazi, in russian, translates to "western European russophobic". I suspect many Russians are scarcely aware that Nazi Germany did something to Jews.
Whoa. You telling me that the most antisemitic country in history is stirring up shit for Jews?
Didnt russia invade ukraine because there were nazis in the country that need to be fleshed out or something? Is it time russia invades russia?
Russia has a long fucking history of invading “Russia”.
If you beleive Putin, Russia invaded Russia by invading Ukraine!
Dagestani people are mostly Sunni Muslim. So I would call the group in this instance Islamic extremists, or just conservative Muslims, and not Nazis. Antisemitism is kind of baked into the Quran, sadly. Not to mention modern history between the two groups kind of fuels that fire.
That's not to say that there aren't actual Nazis in Russia, and there may have even been a few involved here. To be fair, its getting hard to tell the difference between Nazis, and extremely conservative people of most every religious denomination nowadays. So I guess your point still stands.
Not totally true. Arab Muslims and Arab Jews lived mostly peacefully together for many hundreds of years. It's like saying antisemitism is baked into the Bible. It sortof is, but not really. You have to stretch things and manipulate it to do that, and try to force people to care. Most people just want to live their lives. Making any of this Israel stuff about religion just plays into Israel's playbook. Arab Jews lived in that region without murdering the Muslims for a long time. It's the European colonial Zionists that started murdering and saying Muslims couldn't live there with them peacefully.
Right. Religion ruins everything.
So pogroms are back, that’s probably not a great sign for the species
Bruh, you think race riots ever went away. They've just been gone for the Jews. There was literally a race war between Hindus and Christians in Manipur, India earlier this year. Muslims have been actively cleansed in Burma for a half decade now. There was a decades long war between the Sinhalese and Tamil people in Sri Lanka. There were the 2002 Gujrat Riots where 2000 Muslims were killed where the government condoned the violence and actively refused to intervene. The same man is in charge of India now with the largest mandate ever.
wtf?! What has this got to do with India?! But then I checked your profile, looks like you are a Pakistani.
Pakistan has already killed more Muslims than Israel:
-
More than 23,000 Shias have been killed since 1963 according to this video: https://youtu.be/KjdsKVRAbPU

Now, let us dismantle this political correctness when it comes to Jews vs Muslims conflict.
Islamic holy scriptures literally have antisemitism enshrined in their doctrines, like Nazism is part of Islam. That's why they have been at war for 1000s of years now.
Muslims aren't even allowed to wish their Islamic greeting to Jews and Christians, that's how antisemitic their scriptures are.
Here a Muslim refuses to wish their greeting to a Jew: https://x.com/israel_advocacy/status/1519731950902300673?s=20
This is also the reason why Hitler was appreciative of Islam and many prominent Muslim leader allied with him because of their mutual hatred for Jews.

The article I read yesterday, mention a viral rumor about Israel coming to annex Dagestan.
This sounds so absolutely fucked to literally anyone who doesn't live in Dagestan. I've pored over maps of Russia and I didn't even know that existed.
Least racist ruzzian propaganda
Wtf.
This is in the Dagestan Republic, which is mostly Muslim. While many of the mostly-Christian Russians are indeed anti-Semitic these days (indeed, in regards to the war in Ukraine I’ve seen some comment on social media about how “it’s DA JOOOOOZ” because Zelensky is a Jew and America has the second-largest Jewish population after Israel), this is a case of religious extremism by people brainwashed by Arab countries’ propaganda, who think all Israelis are evil. To be completely fair though, Ruzzia pretending to care about Palestinians probably didn’t help either.
reminds me of something
This is the best summary I could come up with:
MOSCOW (AP) — Hundreds of people stormed into the main airport in Russia’s Dagestan region and onto the landing field Sunday, chanting antisemitic slogans and seeking passengers arriving on a flight from Tel Aviv, Israel, Russian news agencies and social media reported.
Antisemitic slogans can be heard being shouted and some in the crowd examined the passports of arriving passengers, apparently in an attempt to identify those who were Israeli.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs for Russia’s North Caucasian Federal District, where Dagestan is located, said that CCTV footage would be used to establish the identities of those who stormed the airport and that those involved would be brought to justice.
Federal authorities and international organizations are making every effort to bring about a ceasefire against Gaza civilians … we urge residents of the republic not to succumb to the provocations of destructive groups and not to create panic in society,” the Dagestani government wrote on Telegram.
He called the protests a “knife in the backs of those who gave their lives for the security of the Motherland,” referring to the 1999 war in Dagestan and troops currently fighting in Ukraine.
Russia’s civilian aviation agency, Rosaviatsia, later reported that the airfield had been cleared, but that the airport would remain closed to incoming aircraft until Nov. 6.
The original article contains 529 words, the summary contains 217 words. Saved 59%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
Wait, what?!? Christians aren’t violent at all, this must be fake news.

Are we supposed to take a random video about some dude on Twitter as scriptural authority here?
You're dumb and wrong. Judaism is considered one of the religions of the book which are considered the least wrong other religions... and the believers supposed to be offered additional privileges and tolerated.
But that's all moot because what holy scriptures say is often disregarded if inconvenient by all modern religions. Modern animosity is politically born - the antisemitism you'll see in places like Palestine is because a people were forceably displaced... if there wasn't a difference in religion some other excuse would be found to fuel hatred.
Russia is 5-10% Muslim. Whats the excuse for landing in a majority Muslim town? I don't see how that happens on accident
Do you think airports are screened for religious make up of the city they're in?
In the wake of the rampage, Israel’s National Security Council and the Foreign Ministry said they have updated the travel warning to the highest Level 4 for Dagestan and other regions in southern Russia, advising Israelis to avoid visiting them and urging all those currently there to leave.
I mean that one will be now.
I was under the impression it was actually a plane full of refugees. I'm confused reading the article a second time because they don't call it a commercial flight. If it was an organized refugee effort then yes the orgs arranging refuge have a responsibility to do their due diligence to make sure the refugees will be safe.
Journalist really need to acquire the knowledge of Arabs being also a Semitic population. The exclusive use of the Semitic label for Israel and the Jews in general is just one more disgrace in this whole story.
🤓
So I am a nerd and being downvoted for pointing this obvious mistake?
It is like in the 2nd chapter of the fairytale the Israelis and all the others in the region based all their lore on. And it is relevant to the article since in it it's stated that there were Palestinian flags brought by the protesters.
🤡
