Quote from: Tamas on April 08, 2013, 01:47:34 AMit's an elaborate joke

How is it different from any other Hungarian joke?

As much as it can be. Usually when a Hungarian blames the jews for something, he means it.

I hereby propose the "Tamas Law" of the Internet: that without a smilie or an obvious explaination, it is in practice impossible to tell when a Euro is joking about blaming everything on teh Joooos, and when he or she means it.  :P

Watch this video of shot from Syrian army tanks, gives you the idea of the scale of the destruction in some city areas, just as Jacobs photo link does:

Interesting; a Russian news crew embedded with the Syrian Army.
You see at 1:05, the guy with the digital camera has a black t-shirt with Assad's portrait on it under his long coat?
That's some balls right there, what with being in an insurrection zone.

Meh, he's riding next to (or on?) an RPG magnet.  Might as well double down.

They're Abkhazian. They probably carry Russian passports, but we consider it to be part of Georgia and ethnically they are closer related to other Circassian peoples.

FSB men with passports from the KGB's fake country working for their fake TV station.

The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

It's no more or less fake than Kosovo.

Kosovo has 99 UN member states recognizing it, Abkhazia has 6 and to be honest I'm a bit baffled how the Russians got Vanuatu, Tuvalu and Nauru to recognize it. Chavezstan and Ortegastan I can understand, but the pacifics?

I understand it's usually a quid pro quo kind of thing.
