Yes god forbid you encounter a slight deviation from the DoS talking points.

It's the pro-Russian trolls misdirecting the thread. And you took the bait.

Poor baby. Waaaaaaaa.

And yet when other countries provide military and civilian supplies to the Palestinians, you do just that. Oh and Iran helping Yemenis is a no no. I’ve said that before: only white casualties count.

Anyone defending the actions of the IRGC is not a serious person worthy of debate.

Translation: only the white casualties count. Only the west decides who’s worthy of help. Annexation is ok as long as it’s taken from brown people.

Let's not ignore the whole Kosovo episode, which basically is a complete flip of the situation in Ukraine. If we had consistent principles, we would be returning that land to Serbia.

That’s ridiculous in so many different levels.

The whole notion of "self-determination" in the context of the so-called "rules-based order" (which really means that the West makes the rules AND the exceptions for their own benefit) is one big chunk of hypocrisy. There is no logical rhyme or reason as to why "the west" applauds the breakdown of some countries and attacks it in the others. Why was South Sudan allowed to split from its neighbor? Why were Eritrea and Ethiopia? Why is Turkey allowed to occupy North Cyprus? Why is Israel permitted to annex land at will? There are no good answers to this and we are helpless to change it. Mocking the notion of the "rules-based order" is the only thing left every time it comes up.

Iran 'helping' Yemenis?! You've having a laugh.

Try sending some military supplies to Palestinians and get a visit from very friendly gentlemen from the Mossad. Let's see how your conviction that countries suffering brutal oppression ought to be helped will hold up.

I’m confused. What’s Mossad got to do with Yemen?

If you think that the world ought to band together to help militarily and otherwise to countries threatened by annexation and oppression by their neighbor....why is military aid to Palestine criminalized?

And yet Israel annexes Palestinian land every day inch by inch and I don't hear much about it, let alone Palestinian flags wrapped around trees in suburban DMV.
