Squarely blame goes to Middle Eastern Arabs rather than North Africa.
North Africans had to fight for their independance not to mention lost a lot of their people to atrocities and massacres.

Thank you for posting this. Basically pro Russian narratives just help attract bots.
Just another type of warfare. The information war. Russia doing its best to change the narrative for the world.
Im talking about the Battle of Navarino where the British, French and the Russians wiped out our navy.
