Yet you don’t complain about billions to The Ukraine. You are only worried about supporting Israel. Thanks for identifying yourself.

I can’t speak for euram but I have seen/posted dozens of threads panning aid to Ukraine.

In fact, FR has been very active on that front and it looks like the GOP has got the message

There are only a FEW of us who are against ALL aid including to Israel. Not many threads I don’t think.

This has huge support here and generally but it doesn’t mean you can’t be against it or point out the pitfalls.

PG88 and Liz have posted staggering numbers in the few threads we’ve had.

You should read and study them.
