Yeah people aren't giving up on Ukraine because Ukraine has turned a tactical victory into a strategic one by dismantling the corrupt parts of western power structures that violently resist interfacing with reality by refusing to lose to a much larger cold war military power they were condemned to lose to by the likes of Biden and then Trump.

I really think the democratic leadership (not democrats on average in the US population, the entrenched DNC power structure is what I am referring to here) just assumed Russia would steamroll Ukraine and then they could fund a proxy war in Ukraine to distract from the Palestinian Genocide and try to sell the idea that all morality is relative.

This is the same cynical, disgusting and purposefully dead end strategy the US has employed in foreign interventions for decades.

This doesn't mean there hasn't been all kinds of military coordination and help to the Ukranian military but ALL of it has come despite US leadership not because of it.

Also a good use for all those men in Russia is Rocket League (or whatever video game), good healthcare and decent paying jobs that they can support a life and eventually family on. If a revolution is necessary for that, I wish Russia luck, but I don't know anything about Russian politics internally so I don't have much to say on the matter beyond stop the war in Ukraine.

Doubt the Israel plan. Syria and Sudan are pretty good places to show morality is relative. At least with some propaganda.

There are no international interests above a certain power and size that don't go through Israel for worse and worse at this point, that is why we are heading into a world war.
