    Ukraine, our ally, was the victim, Russia attacked them. Palestine was the aggressor, they attacked Israel, our ally. Politically, it would be like holding a fundraiser for the axis in the last days of WW2. Was it the right call? Probably not but it’s understandable. Many people would stay away from girl scouts if they appear to be taking the side of Islamic fundamentalists and intifada.
