Between 1880-1930, Italian immigration to Argentina was the largest migratory movement, with around two million Italian immigrants. It was estimated that at least 25 million Argentines (62.5% of the country's population) have some degree of Italian ancestry.

Two things to consider:

"The Colosseum is an elliptical amphitheatre in the centre of the city of Rome, Italy, just east of the Roman Forum. It is the largest ancient amphitheatre ever built, and is still the largest standing amphitheatre in the world, despite its age. Construction began under the emperor Vespasian (r. 69–79 AD) in 72 and was completed in AD 80 under his successor and heir, Titus (r. 79–81)... Construction was funded by the opulent spoils taken from the Jewish Temple after the First Jewish–Roman War in 70 AD led to the Siege of Jerusalem. According to a reconstructed inscription found on the site, "the emperor Vespasian ordered this new amphitheatre to be erected from his general's share of the booty." It is often assumed that Jewish prisoners of war were brought back to Rome and contributed to the massive workforce needed for the construction of the amphitheatre, but there is no ancient evidence for that; it would, nonetheless, be commensurate with Roman practice to add humiliation to the defeated population."

"Josephus wrote that 1.1 million people, the majority of them Jewish, were killed during the siege – a death toll he attributes to the celebration of Passover. Josephus goes on to report that after the Romans killed the armed and elderly people, 97,000 were enslaved. Josephus records that many people were sold into slavery, and that of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, 40,000 individuals survived, and the emperor let them to go wherever they chose. Before and during the siege, according to Josephus' account, there were multiple waves of desertions from the city... It has also been noted that the revolt had not deterred pilgrims from visiting Jerusalem, and a large number became trapped in the city and perished during the siege. Many of the people of the surrounding area are also thought to have been driven from the land or enslaved."

...nationality ≠ ethnicity.

What I find interesting is that people keep forgetting that Latin-America during the Spanish colonial period had a very large and economically mobile Jewish population which held lengthy ties to both the global slave trade and piracy, so it should not surprise anyone later when it's publicly revealed that Javier Milei's not just a Catholic Apostate with ethnically Jewish ancestry, but that he's the cousin of Israel's Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu. Make of that what you will.

Don't know if you're making a satirical prediction or actually mean it.

And as you ride down a winding California road to the late Cass Elliot's song "Make Your Own Kind Of Music" blasting on the stereo, with a grimance on your face you notice the retarded goofy grin on Carnold's face as he's taken you down the rabbit hole.

They're all actors, it's a small club, and you're not a member.

Look up Netanyahu's late grand-father, Zionist Rabbi Nathan Mileikowsky. During the 1800's, the Czarist Russian empire ramped up Russification in Belarus, which was the home of Netanyahu's family at the time when they went by the family name Mileikowsky. A lot of Jewish families relocated from eastern Europe to avoid being integrated into Russian society. Many resettling in Latin-America, among other places. It would be nothing for relatives of his great-grand father to Latin-ize their names, by simply dropping -kowsky, and dipping their toe in Catholicism here and there to gain access to the superior Catholic schools.

Russia wanted to represent their own interest and had to start a war.

Russia didn't want to star a war. War costs money and contrary to US in Russia the military industrial complex isn't really that private, it's state controlled. It would be a gamble with rather flimsy economy this is why they circled around the bush since 2014 and din't want to risk it. They had their choice made for them when Ukr baited them into attacking.

Ukraine should [looking at history of abuse as satellite country] do everything to get away from Russia

They should have done even more not to to act against it and not to provoke it.

Ukr was still being used by Ru

It was used by everyone, mostly b/c it was so corrupt. The corruption wasn't the fault of anyone else than Ukr. All they had to do is not to take the money.

loose chance to take over the whole country at some much later date

The entire goal of this was is to prevent NATO from having a border with Russia in Ukraine. Why would Russia want to take over if they would just end up on the NATO border anyway? A much more realistic assumption is that Rus wanted a neutral country that would be a buffer from the NATO.

Ukrainians were shelling their own land, maybe not exactly cool

They weren't shelling empty land, they were shelling cities. This is well known since the very start of the 2014 conflict.

If UKR wants to get away, they need to bleed Russia as much as possible and HOPE for the best.

All Ukr had to do is to agree it will not enter NATO. This is pretty well understood even in the West, it's admitted this was the agreed upon condition during the unsuccessful negotiations just after the war started.

They need to get Russia to the point where even internal problems would destabilise Russia

How many years will it take for people who believe in this that this isn't going to happen? Do you realize that Russia has been placed under more economic sanctions than ALL other countries combined - and not only it haven't broken them it actually made their eco more resilient?

I wouldn't be surprised if Hamas was supported by Russia

Yes indeed Hamas is supported by Russia by supplying them with weapons the West sent to Ukraine. Much more probable than Ukrainians making money on the side.

Russia has rather close ties to Israel due to the fact that a lot of Rus Jews went to Israel and a lot of Israeli Jews do business in Russia, sanctions or not. This is pretty well know.

Hamas was allowed to grow and prepare by Bibi, this is also documented.

Russia as a society has no respect for the individual life of its members

Whether Russian government has or doesn't have respect for individual life doesn't contradict the fact that Russian society is accustomed to death and sacrifice due to historic invasions of their country.

some animals are more equal than others

The statement about not recruiting from certain regions is true. Same thing happens in Ukraine.

Putin is a psychopath

Don't forget that he's gone mad, he died a few times, he was supposed to be removed by his own generals and his regime was supposed to fall a few times already.

Everything you wrote is PiS or NATO talking points and propaganda. Didn't expect I will encounter a Wukrainiec on this site. It is pointless to argue with people like you, which admittedly I had to learn the hard way during last 2 years, so I'm going to leave you with a quote from Dmowski: "There are many Poles who hate Russia more than they love Poland".
