Maria Zakharova, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson, statement on US calls for genocide in Palestine

Zakharova: "The statements of a number of American politicians and public figures literally calling for ethnic cleansing in the [Middle East] region and openly calling one ethnic group almost doomed to total annihilation look monstrous.

Once again, aggression, lawlessness and caveman hatred have surfaced on the surface of America’s proclaimed piety and human rights dogma.

[...]

Calls by American politicians and public figures for murder, for the complete destruction of people of the same nationality, regardless of the legal side of the issue, testify to the deep problems of liberal society in the United States, its propensity for violence, justification of ethnic cleansing and chauvinism.

I would like all these politicians to answer the primary question [...] How is it that for a year of preparation of such a large-scale operation, the United States, with all the power of its intelligence services, did not pass anything to Israel as intelligence?"
