Ukraine Gets Defense Boost from Israel

Israel will provide Ukraine with an early warning system against missiles as part of an aid package for Kyiv, as it condemned aggression from Russia

Israel's ambassador to the United Nations, Gilad Erdan, told the General Assembly on Monday that his country had provided humanitarian aid to Ukraine since the start of Vladimir Putin's full-scale invasion because it was "the moral thing to do."

Comparing Russia's actions in Ukraine to the militant Hamas group's attacks on Israel on October 7, Erdan said his country knows "exactly how it feels to be aggressively invaded, (and) to have our towns and cities attacked" as he took aim at the "paralyzed" UN for not condemning the massacre that preceded the war in Gaza.

"Both of our countries—Ukraine and Israel—are fighting a battle for our survival," Erdan said, as he touted 100 million tons of humanitarian aid Israel provided to Kyiv in the early weeks of the war.

"The state of Israel will always remain committed to Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity," he said, telling the assembly that his country was "working to provide Ukraine with early warning systems to save civilian lives from Russia's indiscriminate missile and drone attacks."

He added that Russia would be hosting a Hamas delegation in Moscow, making "it one of the only places outside of the Middle East where Hamas terrorists and Houthi Jihadists are given the red-carpet treatment, even after October 7."

“Williams” is an example of the personas of dim witted grunts that could never embrace critical thinking in any meaningful way... Sadly, they (and they are legion here) can only respond to the mass indoctrination of their youth by continuing to grunt “Russia (USSR) BAD” as they plod through their days...

Embracing the realities of realpolitik in 2024 and beyond is hopelessly beyond their grasp... they really should be pitied, except for the fact that their intransigence renders that near impossible...

A sad lot... incredibly sad cases...

Williams has the personality of an angry drunk. Red in the face, shaking his fist, calling names and threatening people. He’d never act like this if I met him in person :P

““cheer Russian domination of Europe.”

They are not able to dominate Europe. That’s a red herring.

However, I would most certainly cheer loudly at their eradication of the pseudo state of Ukraine.

That way the world can get back to normal business.

The world will not be able to get back to its business after Ukraine is conquered the world will be a far more dangerous place and Russia and China will be far more aggressive.
You want to bury your head in the sand that’s your decision but we all have to suffer the consequences.
