They still defend it from what I‘ve seen becuse of “Russian imperialism.” It’s like the Soviet-Afghan war again.

Why would anyone be shocked about a US client state supporting another US client state lol

There's a lot of people whose understanding of geopolitics boils down to "big countries bully little countries" and so they see Israel/Palestine and Russia/Ukraine in the exact same way.

You think Ukraine is a US client state? That's what PUTLER think!

Libs are not exceptionally good at noticing these sorts of things

Very much only capable of viewing everything as a dichotomy

huh? who was surprised by this?

apparently

Western leftists

He's been saying he wants to make Ukraine the Israel of Europe for a few years now. Westerners just don't pay attention to world news unless it's spoon fed to them along with explicit instructions about how to feel.

edit: since at least 2022 https://www.jpost.com/international/article-703335

So yeah I'm really not that shocked at such news.
