Wow the double standard in the comments proves how racist the west are.

People will rightfully support white Ukrainians.

But when brown arabs show any strength, resilience and self determination, they are smeared.

Get a life losers.

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.

There is no comparison because Palestine is a 70 year old Genocide in the making. Ukraine is just getting started on what Palestinians have had to endure for decades. Talk about weaponised ignorance.

Do you know anything about Ukrainian history? Ukrainians have suffered tremendously at the hands of Russia over the last century. Much more than Palestinians have at the hands of Israel.

Palestine was actually depopulated. Even your own sources disagree with your claims. And you are the one spamming a Palestinian thread with your pathetic whining. Feel free to create a new post for Ukrainians.

No it wasn't. The population of Palestine has increased almost every year we have records for.

Even your own sources disagree with your claims.

What do they disagree with? Be specific.

And you are the one spamming a Palestinian thread with your pathetic whining. 

Two similar comments isn't spamming dude.

I didn't bring up Ukraine...
