Palestine is expected to submit its application to join the BRICS, a group of emerging economies, after its upcoming summit in October in the city of Kazan, southwestern Russia.

Earlier, Putin invited Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to attend the BRICS summit in Kazan.

“This invitation means that despite all the crimes, killings and destruction in the Gaza Strip, our message is that Palestine wants to live and to develop,” Ambassador Nofal added.

BRICS includes Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa. In January, it welcomed Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, and the UAE as full members.

      Sure, isolate them from the international community, then shit on them for grabbing whatever life-raft is left. What the fuck dude? They have been killed for decades all because zionist fucks wanted living room that wasn’t theirs.

          Does it feel good to pontificate on the morals of people that are desperate for survival while undergoing genocide? Like does it make you feel like an enlightened moral arbiter?

          Don’t understand how joining an international group of countries is wrong.

          If you mean to say that since Russia and China is part of the group making it the wrong group to be a part of. Then you must think even United nations is wrong.

      South Africa and Brazil were some of the first countries to denounce the genocide campaign. The US and most of the EU continue to support it.

      Tell me more about how they’re wrong and evil for not wanting to die.

      Well yeah, what Israel is doing is straight out of the “how to breed terrorist” instruction manual so this is the inevitable result.
