President Isaac Herzog said after talks with his Cypriot counterpart on Wednesday that Israel is also sending an “unprecedented amount” of humanitarian aid to Ukraine, totaling some 100 tons.

Herzog said the aid is a “moral obligation” and that his country is considering more ways to support the Ukrainian people.

He said a missile attack on the Babi Yar Holocaust memorial in Kyiv “epitomizes the huge pain and suffering of people there” and the “terrible tragedy that we’re seeing unfolding in front of our eyes.”

The Israeli president called the war in Ukraine “an affront to international order.”

I cannot imagine what there is to be diplomatic about. The Russians need to pull out and take their dead with them.

The Zionists have 100 tons (that’s tons, not pounds) of humanitarian aid to give to other nations, while their citizens are starving?

Did anyone think to help the Jews in Ukraine during the pogroms, starting with Tach V’tat down till 1920 where they cut up in quarters the Jewish men and raped every Jewish woman or girl down to 11 years old. These Ukrainian are the worst bunch from all of Europe. I am not advocating to kill them, but why cry for them.

Herzog – your grand parents were beaten ,killed, pillaged, raped, and lost all their belongings in Ukraine. Your a fool if you think not.
