to be clear, israel receives US military aid as well.
That's probably why palestine isn't as much of a concern. They're just two different conflicts here. We've been a pseudo ally with ukraine since the dissolution of the USSR, and so has europe more broadly, we all have stuff to lose there.
The same is also probably true for israel, though to different extents, and likely very different reasons. I couldn't tell you much about it though.
if you look at it from this perspective, it's perfectly and wholly consistent.
That's a very condensed version of Ukrainian history since 1990 lol
yeah forgive me for not including the entire historical context behind ukraine, eastern europe, russia, the bolsheviks and the soviet union, it's collapse, the peace deal, and the breaking of the peace deal, and the nukes that were involved somewhere along the way.
My mistake for not including the entire unabridged history of ukraine in a post about military aid and why this behavior is wholly consistent from a perspective of military support. (that's not even about ukraine)
