If the United States and its allies can rush to Israel’s defense in the skies, shooting down dozens of drones and missiles fired by Iran, why can’t they do the same for Ukraine — which has suffered under Russia’s missile attacks for more than two years?
That’s the question Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and his country’s staunchest backers in the West were asking on Monday, hours after the U.S., the United Kingdom, France and Jordan helped Israel shoot down some 300 drones and missiles fired by Iran in retaliation after Israel killed its senior military commanders in Syria.
“European skies could have received the same level of protection long ago if Ukraine had received similar full support from its partners in intercepting drones and missiles," Zelenskyy wrote Monday evening in a post on X.
Dear Ukraine, the difference is that America wants a war with Iran, whereas it is happy to have a proxy war with Russia. Give the opponent just enough to fend off an attack but not enough for victory.
The war with Iran is meant to be the defining war for this generation. There has not been a single generation of Americans who have not been involved in war.

The US is perfectly happy to have Israel as a proxy against Iran.
