Advocating for defense is fine. The question is whether the goal is defense of Ukraine or just the exhaustion of Russian resources.

Like the Russians, Ukrainian men are forced to fight. Ukrainians are not fighting of free will to defend their country like the Palestinians do.

The irony is that you support an army of forced conscripts being armed but not a guerilla force voluntarily risking their lives.
