    I’m so proud of my government for acting consistently. They support Russia and Israel.

    (I get why they’re doing it, but it still feels wrong.)

    Simple, Palestinians are brown and have less resources that America wants/needs.

    I’m with both Palestinians and Ukrainians.

    idk, from an american perspective, pretty sure the americans that support Ukraine also support Palestine, whereas the americans that support Russia also support Israel.

    mostly certain.

      Ukraine is a sovereign nation that got attacked by another country.

      Palestine just carried out a horrible attack on Israel. Plus the history of Israel and Palestine is totally different. It’s just apples and oranges. I’m not claiming in any way Israel is right here, but Hamas is definitely scum of the Earth.

      Russia aggresses against Ukraine. Ukraine retaliates. Slava Ukraine.
      Israel aggresses against Palestine. Palestine retaliates. Fuck Palestine.

      Make that make sense.

        “B… but Israel good. The TV said so. They had a holocaust against them, they’re saints. We gave them defensive weapons, surely they can’t abuse that extremely effective defense infrastructure to become fucking monsters.”

    Cant they just give the whole land to the Arabs, declare Jerusalem as a religious state (like Vatican City) and create a new Capital for the new Palestine Land?

      This is called the two state solution, and it’d be nice. It’s been tried and it failed, and that’s why Israel and Palestine are fighting now. It seems like the best solution but so far Israel has never agreed to it.

    We’ll be here a while.

    I’ve seen so many stupid takes today, and this is one of them. The conflicts aren’t similar!

      In what ways are they different that it justifies supporting Ukraine but not Palestine?

      No one is saying they’re identical. But there are similarities.

      They’re not identical, but they have similarities. What Russia is trying to do to Ukraine is not dissimilar to what Israel did to Palestine half a century ago.

    IMO everyone should leave everyone else the fuck alone and stop trying to be modern empires, but come on man, these are VERY different situations.
