    an apartheid state who has terrible relations with all neighbors and is inexorably tied to a declining empire who sees you as a goon squad to deal with their geopolitical enemies, all for a few billion dollars a year in military equipment? It’s a bold move, cotton, let’s see how this plays out

    Ukraine can’t lose fast enough or hard enough. Any remnant of this government or army will be an existential threat to peace around the globe.

    I wonder if the close association between aid and support for Israel and Ukraine coming from the US has made any radlibs reconsider supporting Ukraine. They’re very clearly tied together, along with Taiwan, and you’d think that would get some neurons firing.
