The Financial Times reported on Friday about the upcoming Russian attack on the Ukrainian power grid this winter:
“Ukraine is rushing to bolster its energy infrastructure ahead of winter as a renewed Russian aerial campaign starts to home in on the country’s power stations, seeking to leave its people in the cold and dark.”1
I don’t understand how such attacks, which are effectively aimed at civilians, aren’t viewed as terrorism. I don’t understand how the people who are marching against Israel aren’t also marching against this. Unlike Hamas, the Ukrainian government doesn’t use these buildings and structures to store ammunition, to launch missiles against Russia, to hide military headquarters. So where are the marches, where are the protests, where is the outrage?
