    The only way we got Ukrainian aid was by passing Israeli aid.

    I don’t like it either, but it’s a price I’m willing to pay to stop Russia and China from expanding their despotism.

    I know you disagree and would rather sell Ukraine down the river for Gaza, and good for you, but if Ukraine fell in 2012 domestic pressure on Xi to take Taiwan would be unstoppable, and this is exactly how WW2 started, momentum, we need to make invasion too expensive to contemplate.

      Yes, that’s the problem. Why not fund the defense of ukraine and palestine?

      Fascism won’t stop fascism. This isn’t a baseball game. Grow up.

        There’s something wrong with you, I don’t know if it’s ignorance or what.

        We sided with Stalin against Hitler.

        Fascism did stop fascism, very well in fact, it’s one of the few things that does because only fascists are willing to spend lives like they are.
