At least Russia granted the long-awaited wish of south-eastern ukrainians, who fought alongside them against pro-n.a.t.o. ukrainians.
And despite being righteous(, since Ukraine historically only accepted referendums benefiting it, instead of 'trusting in a better future with China'/'refusing to join those whose "friendly advices" destroyed them in 1991, along with Yugoslavia', they're owned by their capitalists/thieves, mind-controlled by the millionaire's Pravda, so much ashamed of themselves and even of their glorious past when they showed the world what ruling virtuously could look like, e.g. by even refusing hereditary genetics in favor of acquired traits, among thousands of things), russians were much more measured(, including in comparison to the blind destruction by Ukraine, according to the pro-russian propaganda at that time).
Palestine-Israel and Russia-Ukraine-Donbass-Crimea are not the same situations.
Without the excuse of secondhand smoking.
