@ami I don't like the complete separation of population and government which is often depicted.
It oversimplifies the relationship between government and population.
There is not many states in which government does something and everyone else hates on the government and is rebelling against it.
If that was the case the government would have fell already.
@ami I don't know about blaming, but I would consider an American citizen a bit more responsible for an action taken by the American government than an Argentinian citizen.
This does not mean that people are directly responsible for actions taken by the government, nor that they all support it.
@ami I agree: I do not believe you should consider a person a criminal because some crimes were done by their state.
@ami It is true, if it was easy to change government with a small crowd, it would change in many places. You'd have to see which alternatives are put up.
I see this a lot: saying that most Russian and Israelian population is against the government. I guess this derives from the NATO propaganda used in the war against Russia. Getting the Russian population to topple their government is one of the ways in which the western block is attempting to win the war.
It is possible that the government of these countries topples, but I'd imagine it may be due to economical repercussions of the war. In the case of Russia I did not see many people strongly against the war in and of itself. Regarding the war by Israel, I did meet a few Israelians who are against the methods used by the government, but I'm not sure there is a large chunk of the population who is strongly against the government.
I may be wrong however: I have never been neither in Israel nor in Russia.
@ami Thanks for the article, quite interesting.
By what I read, protests are not against the war.
Would this mean that if the government fell the war would end?
