Why would anyone be shocked about a US client state supporting another US client state lol
Libs are not exceptionally good at noticing these sorts of things
Very much only capable of viewing everything as a dichotomy
For example: A few years ago my partner had to patiently explain to their mom that Saudi Arabia was a long time us ally. But it was after the killing of Khashoggi so she just thought they were ontologically evil and couldn’t understand why the us would support them
they were ontologically evil and couldn’t understand why the us would support them
So, so close
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!
I had someone say this to me in real life recently. I think if you listened closely, you would have heard my brain rebooting.
Lib moralizing of geopolitics, treating “client state” as a moral condemnation rather than a basic reality of power differences between states.
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.

So yeah I’m really not that shocked at such news.
They still defend it from what I‘ve seen becuse of “Russian imperialism.” It’s like the Soviet-Afghan war again.
huh? who was surprised by this?
apparently
Western leftists
“Western leftists” means “liberals who want universal healthcare”
Ukraine has always been pro-Israel, but I don’t except liberals to know jack from shit, they didn’t care about Ukraine at all five years ago and they were probably also pro-Israel until two years ago.
It’s so much worse than you can imagine, but
I mean it’s not difficult to find out, but hardly any of it it is avaiable in English.
Hahaha no shit, they didn’t know this? Wow
This is my shocked face
Don’t worry, I got you
I was somewhat supprised when I saw ukraine complaing about israhell buying russian grain. it would have been a little good if ukraine gave even a mild, performative criticism about them but nope completly loyal dogs of usa
He’s been openly pro-Israel for years, why is anyone surprised?
Common threat from Iran.
