Russian state media are a bunch of psychotic weirdos.
The only other place you find people making these kind of statements are in the Knesset.
Thankfully Russian state media wield no real power.
This may be one of the more naive takes I've read from you.
Knesset may have their equivalent of Medvedevs in its ranks, aka complete and utter morons/lunatics but for now Israeli government does not control the media. The media in Israel can do whatever the hell they want. They were damn near publicizing the location of the damn air defense during the tit for tat with Iran which was was insane to me.
If you're going to do an apples to apples comparison then either compare media to media or government officials to government officials.
By contrast RT/ANY RUSSIAN MEDIA IS THE RUSSIAN GOVERNMENT. I didn't know this had to be spelled out to you but I guess here I am. There's no such thing as independent media in Russia. All Russian journalists are effectively FSB agents. They have as much authority as whatever minister you despise in the Israeli government which cannot be said for a random Israeli journalist or host. Bibi like Putin runs the show and the rest are little Chihuahuas barking. Also compare someone like Vladimir Solovyov to any Israeli media host and and ask yourself who wields more actual influence within their respective countries.....
In your attempt to write some witty quip you missed forrest for the trees. I get it we have some differing views on the Gaza war but this was an epic fail.
