Well that's just disingenuous and you know it. There's a big difference between offensive and defensive drones. Iran is helping Russia kill Ukrainians. Ukraine is helping Gulf nations (who didn't start this war) defend themselves from attacks from Iran. No Iranians are dying from Ukrainian drones.
What a joke. There isn't such a thing as defensive weapon. Weapons are effensive by their fucking nature.
The same Gulf countries that allow US bases from which attacks are conducted? Do you even believe the shit you say?
Seems to be a touchy subject for you so I'll just leave it at this. Take care.
It should be for everyone. We lived through live genocide streamed to the world to see and heard excuse after excuse that nothing could done because US only supplies defensive weapons to war criminals.
What a pathetic attempt at condescension
The funny thing is that nobody even asked Ukraine for help, Zelenskyy just volunteered it. Very odd timing, as one would expect Ukraine to need all the resources it has, and more, at this moment.
Found AOCs account lol.
My bulletproof Armor and riot Shield is for defensive purposes only, don't worry.
The military bases are used to provide intel to israel and the usa to murder civilians in Iran including anti regime iranians. Nothing defensive about them. Ukranians did participate in the Iraq occupation nobody can use it to jusify the urrian occupation. Iran providing drones to Russia do not justify the war of agresdion israel and the usa started it
If ukraine can talk about a peace deal, it could also negociate along europe to make them move from supporting russia to supporting Ukraine
