    Ah yes Ukraine and Israel are both American proxy wars and not totally different conflicts with different politics run by independent countries

      We sure are supporting Israel a lot for it to not be a proxy war though…

        it’s not a proxy war they’re just using American money and weapons and some American citizen soldiers

          And America is using that to exert their influence on that region in the world. Sure sounds like a proxy. Just because Israel has more power in American politics compared to Ukraine doesn’t mean they aren’t a proxy.

        I mean, the difference being that the US has a say in how one in conducted, and a very justified interest in it’s outcome, while the other is in the Middle East.

        Why they are running a proxy war that’s out of control and doesn’t help anything is a good question, and one that can only have stupid answers.

        It’s not a proxy war; it’s a proxy “police action.”

      I mean…. They’re two totally different conflicts with different politics run by independent countries…. That are also proxy wars being funded by the US and China.

        I wonder how Russia feels as the proxy in the fight rather than the supplier of a proxy in the fight

          Right? Probably a new position for them.

          They’re being supplied and bank rolled by China now
