    He never took the Russian side. He accurately predicted the West throwing Ukrainians into the meatgrinder to weaken Russia and then leaving Ukraine hanging.

    You know, like the West is doing right now.

        Justifiable means reasons can be made up for it by people to justify it.

        Justified means he agrees with those reasons.

        These are two different words.

            No that is not justifiable because Zionists have no right to be present on Palestinian land.

            The Russia argument is among others about the Ukrainian neo Nazis (which some folks somehow really do not want to acknowledge exist) attacking Russian speaking Ukrainians. Most famously Azov. And the whole NATO debacle.

            This does not mean Russia has the right to annex Ukraine, but pro Russians use it as excuse to justify the invasion.
