Israel: Russia Over Ukraine

From Market Watch:

“Ukraine seeks to purchase Iron Dome missile-defense system from Israel”

(An Iron Dome battery, designed to intercept and destroy incoming short-range rockets and artillery shells, positioned last month on the outskirts of the northern Israeli city of Kiryat Shmona, near the border with Lebanon.)

Ukraine’s ambassador is urging Israel to sell its Iron Dome rocket interception system and provide anti-tank missiles to defend civilians against Russia’s invasion. Yevgen Korniychuk on Tuesday stopped short of accusing Israel of blocking the sale of the missile defense system. But he wants the Israeli government to back up its verbal support for Ukraine with military assistance. At a news conference in Tel Aviv, he said Ukraine wants to buy the Iron Dome system, contending that the United States would not oppose such a sale.

The United States has been financially supporting Israel’s Iron Dome for about a decade, providing about $1.6 billion for its production and maintenance, according to the Congressional Research Service. The system is designed to intercept and destroy short-range rockets fired into Israel. Israel fears helping Ukraine militarily would inflame Russia, which has a military presence in neighboring Syria. Korniychuk also said Israel last week declined a U.S. request for Germany to deliver Israeli-licensed “Spike” anti-tank missiles to Ukraine.

Israel has limited its support for Ukraine to humanitarian aid and was the only country operating a field hospital inside the country earlier in the year. Israel fears helping Ukraine militarily would inflame Russia, which has a military presence in neighboring Syria. Israel, which carries out frequent strikes on enemy targets in Syria, relies on Russia for security coordination. The Israeli Defense Ministry had no comment.

^ Israel has been on the wrong side of the Russian War in Ukraine from the beginning. They supported and continue to support Putin and Russia even when Russian War Crimes are constantly being investigated and proven.

You would think a Genocidal War against innocent Men, Women and Children would be something Israel would be against, but I guess even the Israeli Government has limits and Dollars speak more than Lives.

Whenever a Neighboring Country or Terrorist Groups fires Missiles, Bombs or tries to invade Israel I support Israel and their right to live in peace. I am supporting Ukraine in the same way. Sadly, Israel is not supporting Ukraine and instead supports Russia.

If History (ie the Holocaust) has taught us anything its that those who either do nothing to stop a Genocide or who supports the Country committing the Genocide are just as guilty of the War Crimes as the People physically committing the crimes.

The US should stop giving Israel money and supplies for the Iron Dome until Israel starts supporting Ukraine over Russia. ^
