Just what do you need to know about a child that would get you to want to help it from getting blown up, or fed?

If I understand your stance correctly, your opinion is that slinging money towards Ukraine is going to prevent kids from getting blown up or keep them fed? That makes no sense.
Did you feel the same way during the years that Ukraine was dropping bombs / shelling in the Donbas region of their own country?
Do you think had we sent more money to Iraq / Afghanistan innocent children would have been saved?
I am certainly not a Putin sympathizer, but if his reasoning for the invasion was to get rid of OUR bio labs located in the Ukraine (which I strongly suspect it was) then I support that. The pandemic we have been dealing with for the past 2 years came from a very similar bio lab and I'd rather not have any more 'outbreaks'.
