Now that Israel has shown the way
We can't be like Israel.
First of all, it is barbarous. Dropping thousands of bombs on an area with the the third highest population density in the world, and a territory the size of Manhattan is a war crime. Cutting off water, electricity, and medications - in a context in which there is no other practical way to get them - that's a war crime. Purposefully punishing old men, women, and children for the crimes of the government - is a war crime.
Second - we do not benefit from the perpetual protection of the United States. The US can make life liveable, even when the rest of the world hates you (including all your neighbors). In fact, not only is the US not a friend to Russia, but actively aids in killing Russian men. That means we need as many friends as we can find. Behaving like Israel, closes the door to that.
We'll just be a little more emphatic next time we go tell the United States to go f*ck itself at the Security Council or some other forum where we have the misfortune to meet. Enjoy a nice, hearty laugh at their hypocrisy the next time they lecture us about human rights. When the FBI or CIA come to us, for help with this or that problem around the world, as they have come to us many times in the past, we'll be unavailable.
No need to be like Israel. I actually believe what I have been writing here, about how we are waging the most humane "big war" in history. Maybe it has made the actual task of conquering Ukraine much more difficult than an American "shock and awe" approach would, but it leaves a much better chance of us successfully living together in the future - as opposed to Iraq and America.
Israel under Hamas control
I believe this is called a straw man.
