Well its not one question, its a bunch lumped together.
Sure
No. Israel is enacting an actual genocide against a defenceless population, the genocide has been going on since 1947 and has drastically accelerated these last few years.
While there are many accusations of genocide against Russia, its pretty clear (as has been thoroughly investigated by international observers - whom have been allowed to investigate, unlike in Israel) that, while there are civilian casualties, the goal of the russian military is to win a war against Ukraine, not exterminate a people.
Honestly, this one is tough. I feel like it was wrong, but I understand why Russia did it - the NATO posturing, the brinksmanship, the constant breaches of treaties... At a certain point one has to ask what else Russia could do. Now I know how you're going to take this "OH SO YOU SUPPORT RUSSIA YOU CONDONE AHHH" but really if you actually read what I write, then that's not what I am saying. I am saying, given russias position, russias interest in remaining a sovereign country, the threat against Russia (perceived or real), the situation Russia was in was one where the only outcome given to it was invasion. Its not like it did not try diplomacy first.
Wait, aren't you the zionist who couldn't say Israel is committing a genocide? A classic zionist tactic is cheapening the word by using it to describe any hostile action. Im sorry, but between Russia and Ukraine, Russia is not the one who has systematically pursued an ethnic minority, banned the language of that minority, bombed the fuck out of areas with that minority and all that stuff.
Since I don't see how Russia is committing a genocide (because genocide isn't just "when you are at war" if that were the case then the Native Americans committed genocide against colonists in the 17- and 1800's. I hope we can both see how ridiculous that is.) They are giving support to Russia, so they are complicit. Id like to know what makes the invasion of Ukraine less legal than other invasions before I agree on the "illegal" part.

This refrain of yours is so odd to me, because I never see you invokenit with people you agree with, despite the fact there's also massive pro-us-regime botfarms.
