To play thee devil's advocate, Israel made the bar quite high for atrocities that will have the west stop supporting you.
@bouh @MrMakabar Ukraine do not seem to be playing the revenge card at all. Quite the opposite, in fact. Israel, on the other hand, are only playing the revenge card, they could learn a lot from Ukraine.
I know that. Ukraine soldiers are actual soldiers, not bandits on a crusade. Still, Israel still has full support of US and France for example, which is a shame. I wish even half of what's meant to Israel went to Ukraine instead, they deserve it much much more.
@bouh I totally agree
Unfortunately war turns everyone into a bandit, the horrors of this war are well documented. This post kinda imply that the meat grinder has now moved in russian territory too.
However anecdotal this may be, I speak regularly to a Ukrainian, who whilst not fighting on the frontline helps with R&D and stuff like that towards the effort.
Every time I speak to him and the war comes up he only ever speaks of wanting the Russians out of his land, and to just return to his normal life and says that this is the mindset behind every man in his group.
