Zelensky posted warm thanks to Israel’s president for Independence Day wishes. He said Ukraine-Israel ties will grow and prayed for peace. Meanwhile, Israel bombs Gaza and occupies Palestine. Russia does same in Ukraine. Ukraine supports Israel, but Israel is just like Russia. Selective outrage is not okay. If you cry about invasion, dont support another invader.

    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.
