Not really what I think the end goal is. The invasion of Ukraine is a military response to the lack of soft power of Russia to maintaining a sphere of influence otherwise, through diplomatic and economic and other means. Guess only time will tell

Yes, if Russia turns to murdering civilians on the scale of Iraq or Gaza, I’ll be the first to condemn that more, but it isn’t the case as of now. Not that this justifies the invasion or the nationalist Russian ideology, ofc
One side wants to kill them all
Not that I like fascist Putin, but isn’t the civilian casualty rate in Ukraine extremely low to other conflicts we’ve seen recently like the genocide in Gaza or the invasion of Iraq?
The events that led to the conquest of northern Africa by Arabs took place what, 1000+ years ago? You can hardly argue that “Arabs are colonialists” in modern times by judging 1000+ years old historical events, in the same way you probably wouldn’t judge modern Greek people as colonialists because they speak an Indo-European language and Indo-European languages are spoken all over the continent of Europe and much beyond.
Pretty sure that if you can see Valencia and surroundings, you should be able to see Barcelona which is to its northeast, and that small central peak in the Iberian Peninsula looks to me to be close to Madrid, what is it then?
Madrid is gone, reduced to ashes? And so is Barcelona? Weird
By whom? How could China’s numbers be less reliable than India’s?

The only argument that convinced me against that, would be that in some places, there are people who would have to change the date in the middle of their day, like, imagine working at an office and in the morning you’re signing the date as the 14th and in the evening as the 15th. Having two different dates during the same “human day” kinda makes dates a bit weird, and I get that
I specifically talked about ratios and not about absolute numbers. Ukraine has an order of magnitude more people than Palestine, it would be surprising if there weren’t more casualties overall.
OK, Zionist and genocide apologist.
