 @GothPaoki a court that is not recognized by the USA btw. Not to mention that the international court has been a joke for pretty much ever.

@aturner488 the only thing I would disagree about is the way France humiliated Germany with the Treaty of Versailles. They knew the germans well enough. They knew that the germans gonna remember that. And that was one of the reasons they got radicalized so easy.

@Lis-sk8zn no it is not bs it is your lack of actual education on that matter. Those regions (for the most part) were part of the Russian Empire. In 1917 there was a revolution and the empire fell apart a lot of regions were trying to become independent until the red army (communists) did not drop by. The same happened to that region. Yeah they were "independent" for like a little over a year or so. Had no own economy or anything similar and lived from the money provided by russian aristocrats who were hiding there. There was no formal ukrainian language at that time. And this "country" that btw. was not recognized by the world was not the size of Ukraine today. Donbas, Crimea, Dnepropetrovsk were not a part of it. Lemberg was still part of Austria-Hungary. And the most funny part, at the start they wanted to be their own state/federation that would be called Ukrainian Federation or something like that. But there was a smaller revolution inside it which brlught forth radical militant nationalists (who were a minority) and those rose to power but managed to "burn" the whole state down so that in almost every city people were peotesting them.

@ronnie5329 dude, there was no Ukraine in WW2 or before that. The state of Ukraine was founded after the Soviet Union did fall apart. The Ukrainians you are talking about were russians, ethnic people from Poland and Hungary as well as some other smaller ethnic groups. Todays ukrainians are the children of those groups intermingling.

So Israel is not defending itself? What a moronic take.

@aturner488 I mean yeah of course it hit them hard but actually the way the treaty was presented and set up (the signing of it) was made purely to humiliate the germans.

@tihonannenkov4114 no there was no Ukraine. In 1917 after the revolution they tried to make the Украинская Народная Республика/Ukrainian Peoples Republic. It was not recognized by the world. In 1918 like half a year later it pretty much got taken over by radical nationalists. Ok to be fair they somehow managed to reinstate the "government" a year later. But de facto it stoped existing in1920. And this "country" except for the short period of being controlled by radical nationalists, was not motivated by the nationality. So if you want to argue that even when being very generous a country that existed less than 4 years and actually was not even working properly for the majority of those 4 years (pretty much worked somewhat properly bust over a year) is to be counted as Ukraine existing, well okay. I do not accept that it was a seperate/souvreign country. I agree with the vast majority of other cointries at that time, that it was a "natural state" of a country "reorganizing" after a revolution. Nobody expected that it is gonna survove on its own. And dont get me wrong, I hate the bolsheviks, the October Revolution, communism and the rest of that bs. The revolution was one of the biggest mistakes and tragedies pf the last century. But I am not gonna sit and pretend that there was an independent country of Ukraine. And I am not from Russia. I was born in Ukraine, went to school there but lucky me and my family managed to get of that hole 20+ years ago and now we live in a real european country and not in a dirt cheap parody.
