No one said it’s better, but casualties and occupation time are pretty indisputable and if you think both of those are genocides, one is happening a lot faster. That’s why Russia ends up looking ‘humane’ in comparison. All genocides are horrible, not all genocides are equally impactful and I don’t think it really helps anyone to ignore that, at the very least not when the two in question are ongoing.
Oh no. I’m not comparing two genocidal countries. It’s just funny how they are “comparable” and the Western world has one of the worst sanctions against one while they are funding the other.
Israel makes Russia look humane
Yeah, the Russia stuff was bad, but Israel IIRC surpassed the civilian death toll from the entire Ukrainian conflict in the first couple of days.
Part of this is probably due to Gaza not having air défenses, but still.

Gaza is also much more compact and densely populated than most of Ukraine.

Theres definitely a faster one though.

There are an estimated 2.3-2.5m people living in Gaza.
They’re objectively worse at it, so there’s a silver lining there?
