Israel has voted against a United Nations General Assembly resolution calling to reaffirm Ukraine’s territorial integrity, rejecting a strongly worded condemnation of Russia’s invasion of its neighbor on the third anniversary of the war.

Eighteen countries voted against the resolution, 93 voted in favor, and 65 abstained.

      I think it’s a pretty high bar to say that 2 genocides > 1 genocide and Option 2 was more persuadable than Option 1.

      But I’ll be sure to relay to Ukrainians that you believe, by extension, that they’re not noteworthy at all.

        Ukraine was never actually going to be granted membership into NATO, there is a reason for that. They’re being used as pawns. It’s not me who thinks of them as not noteworthy, but nice try with the guilt tripping, it won’t work on me.
