So now you wheel anti-Semitism into your comparison?

Please decide; is Greasy Zelensky a young Winston Churchill or is he more like George Washington?

Your word "greasy" is unacceptable in any political or social context.
Whomever it's aimed at, it's considered racist or phobic, in Zelenskyy's case, anti-Semitic & anti-Ukrainian.

This brings us back to Free Republic, which I've been trying to introduce you to:

Please remember that American conservatism is not necessarily compatible with conservatism in your own home country, comrade.

Setting that aside -- as for who Zelenskyy compares to historically, take your pick: if Ukraine loses to Russia, then Zelenskyy will be comparable to the loser leaders of:

  1. Korea in 1910
  2. Manchuria in 1931
  3. Ethiopia in 1935
  4. Austria in 1938
  5. Czechoslovakia in 1939, 1944 and 1968
  6. Poland in 1939 and 1944
  7. Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania in 1939, 1941 & 1944
  8. Albania in 1939
  9. Denmark and Norway in 1940
  10. Belgium and Netherlands in 1940
  11. France in 1940
  12. Balkan countries in 1940 and 1944
  13. North African Countries in 1940
  14. Burma in 1941
  15. Philippines in 1898 and 1941
  16. Hungary in 1944, 1945 and 1956
  17. Tibet in 1950
It's a much longer list, but this is a start.

On the other hand, if Ukraine defeats Russian invaders, then they can be compared to every successful War of Independence from time immemorial to the present day, an even longer list, including the eventual fates of countries noted above.

But none of it has to do with "greasy" or any other personal derogatory terms you might throw out for Ukrainians.
