That 51 were just killed in a Ukrainian cafe is so commonplace there that it is not a big news story here. According to the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), there have been 26,015 civilian casualties in Ukraine. This includes: 9,369 deaths, 16,646 injured, 500 children.

If there was some sort of natural disaster that killed and injured hundreds of people elsewhere in the world, the US would be sending aid and medical supplies. We'd be assisting in digging through rubble, piling sandbags, fighting the forest fire or whatever was needed. We help countries to recover from and avert natural calamities. Not many Americas question the humanitarian aid when they know a particular country was subjected to Mother Nature's wrath. Few would ask if the country was "worth it".

    You're thoughts are on a right track, and there's a lot more at play here. Even if we send EMS personnel, that's considered boots on the ground.

    Since we're talking about this, what about going to Israel's aid also? An estimated 40 dead (soon to rise, I'm sure) and towns taken over by an invading army.

    "And it didn't kill an estimated 22 Israelis (which could also be Muslims), the story you quoted said 40 estimated, and they haven't cleared apartment buildings yet. " -olde dude

    I know it's impossible for you to consider any option but your own. So there's that.

    A known foreign country tossed 2,000 missiles into another country, murdering over 100 (that's a new count). What's the difference?

    Israel has been a sovereign nation for 80+ years. That's longer than the new "Russia." and the new government of a free Ukraine. You're going to argue the sheeple point the land was taken from the "Palestinians" which you convolute into "Muslim." That "ass umption" is seriously flawed. Palestine was full of Jews, Muslims, and Christians for the past couple of centuries. And Islam wasn't even a religion until 600 years after Christianity, which puts it sever thousand years after the Jews.

    Rights? A woman under Israeli control have more rights than any other country in the Islamic nations (save for Oman). They can drive. Own property. All the things any other person can do in Israel. Cross in to Palestine, and she's considered property that can't shop without an adult male chaperone.

    Again, I know you have never cared about facts. It's your "feelings" that are your facts. I just thought I'd throw some history out there.

    Mother Nature is not corrupt or beholden to nazi ideals and as far as I know, has never transferred any of our weapons "aid" to terrorists in other countries that might eventually use them to kill American citizens. But I could be wrong - maybe you have some information on Ms. Nature that I'm not privy to, Curt? 🤔
