I agree with you. I've just come back from a massive pro-Palestine demo in London, which I attended with a Ukraine badge very visible on my bag. But I fully understand that Ukraine can't afford to speak up against Israel, what with so many all over the world still waiting for the slightest sign that could be interpreted as antisemitism, as well as russia's undeniable collusion with Hamas.
I'm just going to keep walking around London with both badges on me, and if that leads to difficult conversations, so be it. So far, I haven't heard a single Ukrainian voice calling for the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians, and even in their extremely difficult circumstances, many Ukrainians appreciate the complexity of this situation. While it's understandable that in the days immediately following the attacks, Ukrainians would have empathised with Israelis, as news of the genocide keep coming back from Gaza I think that may be changing.
