They're also allied with the USA, who are also attacking countries as they see fit. I'd assume by default that Ukraine just allies with whoever is willing and able to support them materially, and IDK if I should fault them for that while they're in the middle of fighting against an invasion. Then again, Zelenskyy is Jewish and as such probably pro-Israel like most Jews ...
Agree. I see it as existential for them and he has to be pragmatic and disregard his own preferences when it comes to morality. It is sad that the world has turned into this.
That is right.
You are right. While the majority of jews support zionist and Israeli crimes, not all of them do. I have shared several jews videos that condemn and against zionism and Israel
While the majority of jews support zionist and Israeli crimes
Source for this ridiculous claim?
The ridiculous claim of some Jews being anti-zionist, or the ridiculous claim of most Jews being zionist?
Welcome to politics, Ukraine needs any support it can get and that means climbing ass of whoever is not Russia. Like giving medals to Elon Musk just to make sure he does't wake one day and give Russia access to Starlink again
I refuse to judge a man trying to keep his people alive in the worst of times. He has to make impossible decisions and I'm not in any position to think I could do better.
Fucks given = 0. The guy's capable of going to Washington to get humiliated in front of the entire world by the carrot cunt and its oversized VP baby. Does he even have a choice in the matter of supporting Isnotreal? Can he even make a difference? Can his tweets change the Palestinian situation? Nope. He can just fawn over other cunts, probably hoping for money or something.
Misery acquaints a man with strange bedfellows
The Ukrainians are doing what everyone thought was impossible. As long as they don't do warcrimes I've got no notes.
Wildberries is not a warcrime, it's a hybrid military supply chain. Same with gasoline.
While the Ukrainian Left is, from all I know, a stark supporter of Palestine.
Ukraine is hitting infrastructure that helps the Russian army. This is war, and sometimes they hit the wrong targets, but Russia is deliberately hitting cultural places and civilian infrastructure.

It's not that I disagree with you, but I don't get the quote. Are you sure you responded to the right comment?

Yes
Putin claims, that Ukraine is not a valid state - and (like all revanchists do) he presents some "historic data" to rewrite and "fix history". When attacking Ukraine, putin's Russia also calls the attacks as "setting the territory free". Putin also VERY broadly uses other terms like "nazi" ("neonazi"). How convenient!
In the Palestine-Israel war there are equal revanchist claims to rewrite and "fix" history, as well as demands about another state not being "real" or "valid". Out of the two sides, it's the single one resembling putin's revanchists and using the same rethorics to set the territories "free". And not tolerating the other one to even exist.
That's an unpleasant pill to swallow, i know. It has never been. Hence, the war.(
Pro-russian ignore the reality that Ukraine has Jewish president. That is not Nazi. The 'denazify' excuse ignores that the USSR killed 27 million — the same scale as the Nazis. Russia is not fighting Nazis, just invading. And they know it very well.
