The Ukraine is run by and American puppet regime that is throwing Ukrainian men into the woodchipper.
So the alternative is for Ukranians to “lie back and enjoy being raped”?
Russia has always been a neighborhood bully. It mystifies me why any Americans would resent Ukraine for defending itself.
Certainly even the Ukrainians admit that their society has a lot of corruption. But corruption in our allies has never stopped US support in the past.
And the money being spent there is just a fraction of the amount that we spent in either Afghanistan or Iraq. And I will add that the US budget is absolutely *not* “zero sum”, so even if we stopped funding Ukraine at all, it does not mean that (whatever expenditure you prefer) will get a single more dime.
So, boil it down:
1) No skin off our nose (so far).
2) It’s taking Russia down several pegs, relatively cheaply.
