You’ll be amazed how quickly star liberal intellectuals will switch from the “conscience of the nation” to promoting a model – not even Switzerland or Finland, which Hrytsak, a very prominent Ukrainian historian, himself invokes here – but something closer to Paul Verhoeven’s Starship Troopers, as soon as a serious threat emerges to their positions in broken societies for which others are expected to sacrifice themselves.
“We must choose the model of a nation‑army,” says Yaroslav Hrytsak. “Everyone must fight; mobilization and war must become part of national identity, and military service should shape future career prospects.”
By the way, the inscription on the hoodie he wears reads: “Your opinion is horrible (struck through) important.”
Of course, liberal faux pluralism for proper humans only (struck through) goes hand in hand with calls for an endless war on bugs.
So today, at the Security Council, High Representative Kaja Kallas has lamented the gravest violation and breakdown of international law since the Second World War, evident, I quote "in today’s two pre-eminent global crises — Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine and the war in the Middle East."
Quick quantitative analysis of her speech:
Mention of Russia: 11
Mention of Israel: 0
Mention of the USA: 0
Mention of Iran: 1
Her unwillingness, her deliberate failure, to mention the two actors (in addition to Russia) responsible for the greatest violations of international law, is not just coward. It is criminal. It explains the repeated violations of international law, the breakdown of the UN Charter, the global regime of impunity.
The failure is counted in acts of aggressions, in a genocide, in deliberate or disproportionate or indiscriminate attacks against civilians, in thousands of civilians deaths, including children, in unlawful occupation and de facto annexation.
The double standards inherent in Ms. Kallas speech are destroying international law.

(disclaimer: non sono provocatorio, ma avrei piacere di leggere maggior obiettività sul tema da parte di chi ne sa molto più di me)
