    I’m still not seeing why Israel is being treated as a priority over or at least equal to Ukraine. Ukraine is up against a legitimately strong adversary using human wave tactics. Israel is dropping bombs seemingly indiscriminately on mostly civilians. Ukraine is fighting for its existence. Israel is getting revenge on its much, much weaker neighbor.

    If Iran and its proxies enter the war, that might change the calculations, but that hasn’t happened yet.

      Israel is also rich as fuck with a strong military. They do not need financial support.

        But politicians elsewhere need israeli support (to get voted they believe)

      Agreed. Isreal doesn’t need help putting the boot on helpless children.

      It’s a strategic foothold in the region for the US. And “Jeebus.”

      And the more support Israel gets to kill those civilians the more likely sympathetic regional neighbours would be inclined to join. And rightly so. It’s genocide.

      Republicans like Israel and don’t (all) like Ukraine

      We have already given the Ukraine over a 100b in funds. We don’t need to give them anymore. I also don’t want us to give aid to anyone.
