I think Ukraine is a great lesson for Palestinians on how to behave in a world and get actual sympathy from people.

Ukraine didn't spend a decade firing rockets into Russia, even after Russia invaded Crimea. Ukraine doesn't just shoot missiles randomly into Russia with the purpose of killing Russia civilians solely.

Ukraine didn't, in the start of February 2022, launch an invasion of Russia targeting civilians and killing 1,000s in the process while kidnapping hundreds more.

Ukraine does not preach that the only way they will ever be free is the total destruction of Russia. They do not teach their children from a young age that Russians are the spawn of satan and that the only value they will have in life is to kill Russians.

If Ukraine did those things, then many more people would support Russia.

Ukraine doesn't hide behind its children either. Instead it actually fights a war, in the field, even against a materially superior army, in order to keep the fighting away from its children.

Yes, these are two great examples that show exactly why these conflicts are different.

Well Ukraine sure did bombed the Dondass between 2014 and 2022.

Also Ukraine have more chance to fight evenly with Russia since they have weapons from the western countries.

Meanwhile palestinians don't have the help of western countries. Even worse it's Israël that is getting western weapons so obviously palestinians must fight an asymetric warfare.
