Why advocate for the dissolution of Israel but not of Russia
If we dissolved Russia tomorrow and created a new state including all Russian and Ukrainian territory, you’d have the Ukrainian areas immediately fighting to secede, and the Russian-speaking areas of Ukraine probably vote to remain.
What were you intending to do with the Israeli people
Give them equal rights to the Palestinians, with minority protections/representation after giving the Palestinian people their homes back and allowing the ones who fled to Egypt and surrounding countries to return home.
Why not split Israel and Gaza along linguistic lines as you propose to split Ukraine?
Russia and Israel are fundamentally different entities; the Israeli settler-colonial project requires the continued ethnic cleansing of its claimed territory and it’s status as an American outpost requires it take hostile action against anyone America wants to fuck with, currently Iran and Syria; meanwhile Russia did a simple calculus:
Option 1: Don’t invade
Expected result: hostile, NATO-backed state 50 miles from Moscow who can act with impunity and we can’t respond
Option 2: Spend 3 days driving to Kiev, replace government
Expected result: Pre-2014 status quo of Ukrainian buffer state.
