I know it’s realpolitik but it’s still mind-blowing to me that this guy is in the middle of fighting against an aggressive occupation of Ukrainian land with elements of ethnic cleansing, and simultaneously takes every opportunity to align himself with Israel, an occupying force.

To me it’s pretty obvious that he will do whatever he needs to to keep getting supplies from the US and Israel’s allies and to be honest, what’s his alternative? Let Russia kill his whole country?
