Who needs it more:
The country fighting an organized military with a spending and GDP that dwarves theirs
OR
a country fighting a non uniformed group in an area smaller than most other countries in the world.
Hmmm truly boggles the mind

The club that’s tenth needs it more. #GiveTheMoneyBack
And now you’re anti-Semitic! /s
2.34 billion to war criminals
Move the funds from a nation being invaded to one carrying out an apartheid, I can’t stop laughing
Israeli Arabs have full equal rights in Israel, there is no apartheid.
Palestinians do not because they are not Israeli citizens. Do Irish citizens have full equal rights to live, work and travel in Britain? No?
Is that apartheid? 🤡
Honestly you pro-pallies talk such bollocks.
Tories are Russian collaborators.
Could you please quote the part of the article which says that the Tories were behind this?
👎
just send it to me lads that should be enough for a Tesco run
Can you stop by Gregg's on the way back and get me something pls 🙏
Amateur. Get a clubcard and it'll cover 4 runs
The fact that is hasn't already made it to Ukraine is a fucking joke.
Did anyone ever expect it to?
We did care about Ukraine. But instead will flush the international rules based order down the toilet and become massive hypocrites on every criticism we had of Russia to allow Israel to do so.
Why give an invaded nation fighting for its survival any money when it can be used to missle toddlers in the teeth?
Did you even read the article? It makes it very clear that the proposal came from Abramovic and was immediately rejected by Parliament.
Does Israel have dirty secrets on everyone? How’s that a valid argument to make at all?
Should I give it to a victim or a bully? Baffling to be honest
Thing is the deal said the money should go to the victims of the war; not specifically Ukrainian victims. Sure the invaded party are traditional the victims of the invasion in question.
But I think Roman wants to drag out the whole thing. I don’t think the other Oligarchs are happy if he gives money to any non-separatist Ukrainian. Meanwhile the UK government cannot sanction it if even 1 million pounds of the money goes to grieving Russian mothers. So the money are stuck in limbo because RM’s assets are frozen not seized.
So I think it’s more a question of political convenience
I'm not saying this applies to Roman, but in regards to how other countries treat Israel I'm repasting my comment here because it answers your question.
America has sent 300 billion, adjusted for inflation, now to Israel. The first thing America did after voting against a humanitarian ceasefire, very recently, was sign off on another 14.5 billion dollars straight to Israel.
Just recently Israel just awarded 6 gas exploration licences.
This:
It's 300 billion adjusted for inflation actually now, in total. The first thing America did after voting against a humanitarian ceasefire was sign off on another 14.5 billon dollars straight to Israel.
Anything, anything happening in the world on the scale and level such as what we see with Palestine is a function of fiscal gain.
War is a means of moving money, amongst other things. America is the world's foremost economic super power and a defining feature of their economy is their arms industry, the private sector is fully intertwined with the government now. If you're the biggest arms dealer in the world only one thing is truly critical to business and it isn't peace.
"I'm sure innocents are being killed, it's the cost of waging war." - Joe Biden on Palestine
Good job UK, finance some genocide.
Palestinian population in 1948 was 700000 Today it's over 7 million
Sounds like one brutal genocide 🤡
Look at all the jew haters downvoting lmaooo. I found that the majority people on Reddit are pretty anti-Jew.
It literally says the UK said no. Besides, the israel link is barely a headline and no one knows who proposed it. The article is about how the money could be spent in Ukraine or beyond Ukraine in order to help Ukrainians and why it hasn’t yet.
Beyond laughable
That is such a stupid proposal that I'm not even surprised.
Abramovich is a Israeli citizen
Sounds like everyone involved is desperate not to release that money. Maybe it’ll happen once there’s a resolution to the conflict since one of the issues seems to be Abramovich not wishing to come across as pro- Ukraine in Russia.
Also, the article mentions his parents and family were from Lithuania? I thought he had a Russian father and a Ukrainian mother?
Lmao. Everything and everyone is corrupt as fuck.
lol what the fuck
It feels like the world is upside down and inside out. More than it has felt before.
diverted to Israel or a specific Israeli citizen?
Sure, that's not fishy as f**k at all.
You get my monthly Larry Davidism of "you're allowed to say fuck on the internet".
You're allowed to say fuck on the internet.
Did anyone read the article? The Uk never actually considered this they believe it was proposed by Abramovich himself or Israel
This really should be the top comment. This whole thread is really exposing what a mess Reddit can be sometimes
Screw Ukraine and screw Israel. Give the 2 billion back to Boehly so I can continue to get my dose of transfer dopamine 😎
LOL nobody is getting this money but abramovich. when they lift sanctions in a few years the money will still be there guaranteed.
What a fuckin joke.
I'm sure Roman, Israeli citizen, would actually prefer that. Sone punishment.
Well this is all running along about as smoothly as we thought it would.
They put The Completionist in charge of the money, it seems.
Who knew...
Maybe a certain group waited to pull this off.
2B is crazy amount, no matter from which part of Israel you want to censor everyone and push your narrative.
To the place where he bought a passport to back in the day. Just a way to get the money back to him so once relations with Russia normalise in a year or two the UK can get better trade agreements.
The duck for?
Even ignoring the morality of this, it makes far more sense to send it to Ukraine since they are suffering under the government who Abramovich made his money doing business with.
Send it to Ukraine you cunts.
Why would it go to isreal when the whole purpose of his departure was over the ukraine stuff.
Make it make sense
I'm not even touching this emotional temper tantrum until you stop using words like "murder" to describe war casualties you clown
JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJA
