    I would love to see sanctions against Israel and anyone who aids in the genocide of Gaza. I see no difference at all between the actions of Israel, and those of Russia. They should be treated the same.

      Good, I’m glad we agree that the genocide deserves sanctions for EU, USA and Israel. Hopefully then we also agree that the rearming of the EU is undesirable and dangerous, and EU citizens should push for disarmament and for a breaking of relationships with USA and Israel, and USA citizens should do the same in their country, as is said about Russian citizens

        The EU has every right to defend itself against acts of aggression by a hostile neighbor…just like Palestinians do. Until countries like Israel, the US and Russia start acting like civilized nations…no one around them is safe.

          But EU is foremost an invader. We’ve seen it with Libya, Yugoslavia, Iraq and Afghanistan, and more covertly in post-colonies in Africa by countries such as France or Belgium

            The French and the Belgians have certainly been dickheads but claiming that “the EU is foremost an invader” is the most Russian psyop bootlicker nonsense I’ve heard today. Tell me who the Poles have invaded lately? The Estonians? The Slovakians? Consider that Serbia who has sworn to never ever ever join NATO is eager to join the EU.

              Coincidental that you’d choose three countries that belonged to the peaceful Socialist eastern block, quite revealing about the nature of communism, don’t you think?

            Lol! The whataboutism is off the charts. Anything to deflect from Russia’s current actions…right?

            Why aren’t you also advocating for Russia to disarm, if you think the EU should?

              I do advocate for Russia to disarm given The EU and USA doing it.

              Not about whataboutism, I just don’t want my taxes to go to killing children in some underdeveloped country as they inevitably will if EU rearms.

                Unless you can stop Russia first, disarming the EU will only get more children killed.
