    And they'll keep receiving said money because the majority of the United Nations believes Russia is the aggressor. Allowing an aggressor to overtake soverign land is a big no-no to the UN.

      Which is why Israel was stopped from annexing East Jerusalem and the West Bank right? It also explains why the US was not allowed to invade and occupy Syria.

        While this may be a desired goal of Netanyahus government, his support by Israelis is dwindling. Let's not forget Hamas's desired goals too. In the future, hopefully a more progressive Israeli government echos the United States policy more closely for a 2 state solution.

            Please refrain from the use of this hateful language. It does not promote thoughtful debate.

                I'm not sure what a comm is, I'm just commenting on a thread that appears in my "Hot" list. That sounds distasteful and warmongering. I don't think violence or death threats should ever be supported. Hopefully humanity can learn from this disgusting statement. A defensive pact, which NATO is, does not apply aggression towards sovereign nations.

                  it is, colonialism isn't going to be defeated with peace and flowers, i hope israel gets bombed until the last zionist is dead and the state is torn apart by their "neighbors" who they've been tormenting for decades with their "preemptive" missile strikes on civilian infrastructure

                  NATO is a defensive pact

                  yeah, i bet the people living in yugoslavia, libya, syria, etc loved getting defensive peace bombs dropped on their head

                  you're disgusting, you put civility above all because you're a coward who enjoys living off other's suffering while acting high and mighty about it

                        I can't support Apple's streaming service unfortunately. Their position towards right to repair has painted a dark stain on their reputation.

                            "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere." This resonates particularly well with me! This is why the injustices imposed by Russia in Ukraine need to be met with staunch resistance. Ukrainian sovereignty must be protected from injustice! I'll continue reading.

                                Haven't gotten to that part yet, but, "We know through painful experience that freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed," is a great support for Ukrainian resistance to Russian aggression! Thank you for highlighting this important textualization!

        All it takes is a short read of UN documents, go ahead and read. I'll leave this here to guide you: https://www.un.org/securitycouncil/sites/www.un.org.securitycouncil/files/part_i_2022_mps_of_ukraine_0.pdf

            Sure,

            "the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) briefed the Council on the allegations of violations of international human rights law and of international humanitarian law in the context of the Russian Federation’s armed attack on Ukraine."

                It definitely highlights Russia as the aggressor in this war. Their decisions alone sparked the conflict and their decision to pull out will be their only saving grace. I want better for the Russian people, they deserve better. I visited St. Petersburg and this young lady was going on about the government failing to provide to it's people. To the point where frozen pipes burst in her living accomodations. That winter she had to rely on burning wood in a barrel to keep warm. If the Russian government cared for it's people, such a situation wouldn't have happened.
