Geee Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 American Greatness When Russia invaded Ukraine, Americans overwhelmingly supported Ukraine—as they did with Israel after October 7 No wonder: Ukraine was surprise attacked by Russia, and Israel was by Hamas. It seemed an easy binary of good versus evil: both the attacked Ukraine and Israel are pro-Western. Both their attackers, anti-Western Russia and Hamas, are not. Now everything is bifurcating. And the politics of the wars in America reflect incoherence. Both Ukraine and Israel are portrayed in the media as supposedly bogging down in their counteroffensives. More pro-Israel Republicans are troubled by Ukraine’s strategy, or lack thereof, in an increasing Somme-like stalemate. Yet more pro-Ukrainian Democrats are turning away from Israel as it dismantles Gaza in the messy, bloody slog against Hamas. The left claims either Israel cannot or should not defeat Hamas, or at least at the present cost. So the left pushes Israel to a ceasefire with Hamas. It blasts Israeli “disproportionate” responses. It demands that Israel avoid collateral damage. It pressures it to form a wartime bipartisan government. It lobbies to cut it off from American resupply. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
