TEL-AVIV, July 22 (RIA Novosti) – Israeli President-elect Reuven Rivlin during a meeting with Russia’s Federation Council members called for strengthening political ties with Moscow, including terrorism prevention, the Federation Council’s press center said Tuesday in a statement.

“The President-elect of Israel highlighted an importance of strengthening and developing relationships with Russia. He reminded us that the USSR was the first state to recognize the state of Israel, and also mentioned that more than a million Israeli citizens hail from former Soviet Republics,” the statement said.

The delegation, led by the council’s foreign affairs committee chairman Mikhail Margelov, is currently in Israel.

The Russian delegates discussed the current situation in the Near East, including the conflict in the Gaza Strip, during meetings with Reuven Rivlin, who will be inaugurated as Israeli president this week, Israeli Foreign Affairs Minister Avigdor Lieberman and Israeli Deputy Foreign Minister Ze’ev Elkin.

The politicians also discussed bilateral relationship prospects for Russia and Israel.

Rivlin supported the Russian initiative to exchange methods of terrorism prevention at the legislative level.

“This kind of cooperation is very important and interesting, from both juridical and practical perspectives,” Rivlin said.

Russian senators discussed the situation in the Arab world with Lieberman and diplomats focused on the prospects for the de-escalation of acute international crises, including the conflicts in Ukraine and Syria.

Israeli leaders refrained from speaking publicly about Ukraine’s internal political crisis and on Crimea’s reunification with Russia following a referendum in March.

Lieberman has repeatedly expressed Israel’s readiness to contribute to the stabilization of relations between Russia and Ukraine, calling both countries friends of Israel.

On July 8, Israel launched Protective Edge, a special military operation in the Gaza Strip, targeting the Hamas movement and its allied groups of Palestinian rebels in response to Palestinian aggression.

On July 17, following days of fighting, the Israeli military switched to a ground invasion aimed at destroying underground tunnels dug by rebels used to secretly enter Israeli territory.

The total number of people killed over the last weeks in the conflict between Israel and Hamas exceeds 550 people, with more than 2,500 wounded.

USSR was the first state to recognize the state of Israel

That was when Russia was run by Bolshevik Jews (who pretended to be Arab allies)

Weird; new Israeli president wants closer Moscow ties but from all appearances Jewish lobby having Obama give Russia the gears over Ukraine. Jews pushing Ukraine out of Moscow's sphere of influence to allow NATO to get closer to Russia's borders. Anyone have explanation for this two-face policy?

It seemed to me that we were OK with Putin until he cracked down on the Jewish oligarchs who had looted the nation of assets using money borrowed from the state. Over here we bail those crooks out when their bets go wrong. Putin jails em, we bail em.

Jews actually set Putin up in his leadership role, he apparently having some Jewish lineage,being part of the old Soviet Bolshevik Jews KBG apparatus, but Putin decided it'd be better to put the Russian people's interests ahead of Israel-serving oligarchs, opposite that of Obama and we see where it has gotten the latter. Kordorkovsky borrowed money from Rothschilds to take over Russian oil and they probably weren't repaid and so they may have gotten Britain to give Putin the gears at every opportunity.

... give Putin the gears at every opportunity.

What are gears?

Thanks.

Give Someone The Gears

Posted by Elyse Bruce on August 26, 2013

Believe it or not, to give someone the gears means to harass or pester someone, usually in a teasing way, but not always. It’s a Canadian expression that shows up primarily in Canadian newspapers, but making some headway in American newspapers in the northern states in the past decade.

Every once in a while, the Globe and Mail will run a humorous essay by Kevin Bray. On July 26, 2011 the article “My Dog Has Seriously Cramped My Style” had readers howling at the author’s predicament. Being the proud owner of a poodle, this entailed the grooming that’s part and parcel of poodledom including the pantaloon-style legs and lion-style mane haircut. He told the story of an ornery old gent who made an unkind remark about his adorable canine and what followed was a defence of his dog against the cruelty of a human.

However, my confidence in the combined intelligence of two species – homo sapiens and canine – blinded me to the prescient wisdom of an old man that sunny day who got out of his boat-like car, looked straight at me and loudly pronounced, “Glad I don’t have a dog. It would cramp my style!”

I don’t know why I reacted, but I responded just as crankily, “What style?”

He harrumphed and tottered into the coffee shop without another word. I think I gave him the gears because I was worried that he had a vision of my future.

Ottawa Sun reporter Bruce Garrioch wrote an article entitled, “Heatley’s Pointed In Right Direction” where the possibility of Senators winger tying the NHL record for scoring in consecutive games that had been held by Wayne Gretzky since 1988 was palpable. The article stated in part:

Seriously, the former Atlanta Thrasher would be thrilled to put his name in the record book. His teammates have been giving him the gears about it, but the chase to equal Gretzky and beat his mark has created a lot of excitement.

On January 13, 1983 the Calgary Herald published a story out of Ottawa written by Charles Lynch and entitled, “Venom Boils When PM, Press Hit The Road.” He started the article off by stating that every few years, the longest running hate show on the international stage went on a road trip, and the main characters of this show were members of the national press corps and certain politicians.

The idea of politicians abroad being objects of abuse took hold in our media circles — so much so that when Joe Clark went traipsing around the world as Tory leader, a whole bunch of press people went along with him, and gave him the gears. Clark was polite to the press, but they wimped him anyway, leaving his image with scars that have never healed.

Because it’s such a recent addition to the English language, and because it was used to easily in the 1983 article, it’s safe to say that the expression dates back to at about 1975 for it to make its way into the general lexicon by the time Charles Lynch made use of the expression.

And a Canadian expression at that! A first on the Idiomation blog that’s for sure!
