Ukraine doesn't gun down shelters and cafés full of civilians and parades mutilated bodies of tourists through the streets.
That's why people support Ukraine and criticize Palestine.
But I don’t see people criticize Israel for decades of oppression on Palestinian people. That seems to be normalized by everyone nowadays.
What do you expect? Palestinian people to just be like “okay, kill us go ahead”?
Did people forget that Zelensky knew that Russia would wage war on them and he kept this a secret all along because he knew people would leave the country?
People (including myself) are criticizing Israel EVERYWHERE ad nauseam. Bringing UN resolutions (vetoed by the US), protesting on the streets, ranting on the internet, wearing t-shirts, donating to NGOs...
Everybody knew Russia would wage war on them, there were satellite images published for weeks before Feb 24th, which of course Russia denied. Is /r/RussiaDenies a thing on lemmy yet?
People do criticize Israel, but this recent Hamas attack made it hard to do right now.
