- 100% I hate the fact that we're funneling money I'm anti-war but the alternative is definitely much worse. If we don't support Ukraine, Russia gains power and a free pass to invade whoever the hell they want. If we don't support Israel we leave a power vacuum and The power influence of the US gets replaced by either Russia or China. No good options anyehere.
  
  Obviously, supporting Israel is also supporting genocide. It's a classic catch-22.
  
  I'm so glad I'm not the president! He gets to choose between eating a shit sandwich, and eating shit gumbo.
  
  At least Ukraine has a pretty righteous cause. So there's that...
  
  You don't have to say you're anti-war before saying you support supplying Ukraine. Giving Ukraine the means to defend themselves from warmongering is a form of being anti-war.
There's always, always money for more war.
- Because the only one who wins in a war is the military industrial complex, and they have fantastic lobbyists!
  
  If someone invaded your country and started murdering people you'd want to win the war.
  
  You're not wrong.
50% good. 50% evil.
