> Russia's Mariinsky Theatre staged a surprise concert in the amphitheatre of the Syrian city of Palmyra on Thursday, in what looked like an attempt by the Kremlin to win hearts and minds and remind the world of its role in the city's recapture.

>Gergiev, a longtime Putin supporter, described the concert as a protest against the barbarism and violence exhibited by Islamic State militants who had destroyed parts of Palmyra and used the city's Roman amphitheatre to execute prisoners.

>Thursday's concert had echoes of a performance conducted by Gergiev in August 2008, when the Mariinsky performed in front of the bombed-out parliament of the self-proclaimed Republic of South Ossetia after Russian forces defeated the Georgian army in a short war over the territory.

I hope the middle east becomes less turbulent without our lifetime so that I could visit some of these sites. Palmyra, and Petra especially.

I DIDNT SEE ANY GAY OR INTERRACIAL RELATIONSHIPS IN THAT ORCHESTRA

FUCKING SHITLORDS OPPRESSING SYRIANS NOW WITH THEIR RACIST TRANSPHOBIC CULTURE. WE NEED TO DEPLOY MORE UN TROOPS TO MAKE SURE THE SYRIAN REBELS CAN FIGHT THIS ABSOLUTELY APPALLING CONDUCT.

But to be honest this is really fucking neat. Whether it was just done as a stunt or not, An orchestra in a war torn shitskin country is like a big "fuck you" to the terrorists and jews attempting to help them to further destabalize the region.

Based russia. Even if it was done for propaganda, I dont care. Based.
