    Agreed on most points. I’m not sure how a war in Israel helps Putin in Ukraine though. If you assume support for Israel means less support for Ukraine then sure,

    Israel has been a fairly large supporter of Ukraine in terms of equipment and ammunition and such. before this happened, I remembered reading something about them helping build their own Iron Dome system, for example. (though, I’m not sure how effective such a system would by. Israel has about 8 thousand square miles to it… Ukraine a couple hundred thousand.)

    Also, if you assume war materials are finite resources… Israel is going to be less likely to share if they have an active war on their own home turf.
