"...you are sidestepping the fact that russia has invaded a neighbour to steal her land..." Not sidestepping. Ignoreing. Because it's an unsubstantiated statement. There is no evidence that Russia wants to grab more land. The progress, number of troops committed... None of it adds up. If the Russian government's main objective was to capture more land, I'd say that Ukrainians would have been faced with a 1.5-2 million Russian army on their territory. From day 1.
If you really think about it, your "land grab" narrative makes no sense when you consider all the events of the past 2 years.
"...it's about restoring rule of law and Ukraines borders.." Whatever happened to the "rule of law" in Israel and Gaza, eh? If it was about restoring Ukraine's borders, NATO wouldn't have sabotaged the March/April 2022 negotiations. It's not about the rule of law. It's about US/NATO expansionism.
"...your 2 dimensional approach pitting russia against the west and barracking..." You're more correct than you know. But we'll leave it at that. And if you're still around in a few years, we'll argue about whose approach was more 2 dimensional.
