Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed for the first time that Israel delivered Patriot air defense systems to Kyiv, adding two more batteries will arrive in the fall after months of speculation and denials
Anyone taking a principled stance against genocide will. Sorry, but Ukraine needs to find another way than to become indebted to a fascist regime like Israel.
Honestly, taking arms from Israel, while it kind of helps Israel’s reputation, still means less equipment doing genocide.
A win in my book. Now, if only Ukraine took 50 more, the Flotilla broke through and some sane country got Netanyahu to the ICJ, the world would be a better place.
I considered this, and it kind of makes sense. But, unfortunately Israel has an effectively limitless arsenal because of US patronage. So, I don’t think it really affects their project.
They are actively under fire from fascists, and the rest of the world is failing to step up and help. They need what they can get.
This is extremely cursed and it will definitely have strings attached that no one wants, but in a question of survival vs not, I don’t blame them one bit. This is a decision centered around “we have to survive today to solve this problem tomorrow”.

They’re not becoming indebted. It’s part of US Israel talks. The system is 30 years old, they need to replace it regardless.
Sending it to Ukraine is preferable than sending it to a landfill.
