    frfr, Russia isn’t committing genocide. (Not defending Russia, if it’s not clear)

      They’re attempting to, with how they treat Ukranians in territories they occupy, but thankfully Ukraine is able to defend themselves against missiles and bombers. Not really the case with Palestine, not much a Palestinian kid can do against complete and total saturation bombardment and snipers to pick off the civilians that survive. Israel and Russia are two sides of the same coin against very differently equipped victims.

      I mean they kinda are, just in a different way. Russia claims that all Ukrainians are actually Russian and they don’t deserve their own sovereignty. They essentially want to commit a cultural genocide of Ukraine and any Ukrainians that refuse to relinquish their culture or identity as Ukrainian.

      I’m no expert though, so I’d appreciate if someone with more in-depth knowledge could expand on this a bit.
