    Supporting Ukraine is far more important than supporting Israel IMHO. Israel needs no support. The civilians of Gaza are the people needing support in that conflict.

      I do agree. But it is not just being evil or believing in biblical myths that makes the US support Israel unconditionally. As much as I hate it, Israel serves a strategic interest to the US and is seen as an asset in the region rather than a liability but that’s changing. Of course nothing justifies a genocide but for the US, it can’t risk Israel falling, it needs it to control the oil exports and international trade that passes through the region.
