@leyonhjelm @ArdainianRight Ah, but it is what happens sadly.

Israel goes to war and the western governments fund them. Especially the US.

Ukraine goes to war and the western governments are funding them.

Happens the world over it seems. How much money did the US waste on keeping a government in Afghan going? That the people on the ground squandered on infrastructure, taking longer to build things because they know more money will be sent to them? We just throw money from the future at them and hope for the best.
