Since the US doesn't help any other countries fight against settlements, should there be an exception for Ukraine?

Some Americans want the US to get involved in helping Ukraine fight against Russia's attempt to take over it with settlements, but the US doesn't help other countries that are being taken over with settlements. Given that we don't help other countries that are being taken over by settlements, should we do things any differently with Ukraine?

The US does help other countries that are being taken over with "settlements". Kuwait, Vietnam, South Korea, France, come to mind.

“Some Americans” that’s a open ended statement. Which Americans? How many Americans? If 2 Americans out of the 350 millions Americans then the two would be some. Or if 200 million then that’s a lot more .
Do you have any examples of the settlements your referring to?
Your post was vague

I don't exactly know how to answer your question, other than by showing this to you: https://debatepolitics.com/threads/palestine-vs-ukraine.479301/
Draw some more attention to a closed thread and see how that works……

Where is the Russian report that they are “taking over with settlements?”


De-nazification is the last excuse I read.


You have used the phrase three times in one post, can you define what you mean?

What exactly does "being taken over with settlements" even mean?

Russia invaded Ukraine on 24 February 2022 from the north, the east, and the south.
