    The 2 things are not the same

    Russia a country invaded Ukraine a country.

    Israel a country was attacked by Hamas a terrorist group and in response invaded Palestine a country.

      Way to put the cart before the horse! The origin of the current war in the mideast is the creation of Israel after the second world war. You can’t deny the role of the original land theft in discussing the situation, though i’m sure you weren’t trying to.

      Imagine the King of England (now that we have one of those again) declaring Texas to be entirely the territory of Native Americans. What would white people do? And yet we act like the palestinians are unreasonable. Like, get fucked. It has nothing to do with racism of any sort and everything to do with all humans being pretty much worthless cunts. (Present company excepted of course. ;) )

        That’s a valid point, but it’s not like the Jews never lived there, go far back enough and it’s a very different situation. That is what makes this entire conflict so difficult.

        That is why I think it’s good to just look at current events.
