What is the difference? In each case you have a country that is grabbing land that doesn’t belong to it. In the West Bank it is Orthodox settlers, aided by soldiers, who are creating conditions that will make it impossible for the Palestinians to have a separate and independent state. In Ukraine it is the Russian government sending in troops to seize land that does not belong to Russia.
In each case it is a powerful country taking land that doesn’t belong to it and taking it by force in the face of international opposition. Both deserve our condemnation.
