There is absolutely no equivalence between Ukraine and Gaza, in fact, it is disguising to suggest as much.

Yeah,true even Russia doesn't openly state that their goal is to level Ukraine to the ground and displace the population one way or the other.

Israel also gets away with encroaching and colonizing palestinian territory (that they don't even deny isn't theirs until they "settle" it). Again, Russia at least gets international condemnation when it does so

Russia entered into an international agreement guaranteeing Ukraine’s territorial integrity (Minsk), and subsequently clearly violated it. Israel and Palestine have no such agreement, though they’ve come relatively close to making one, and both countries have repeatedly violated the other’s territorial sovereignty over the past 80 years. They’re very different cases.

Both Russia and Ukraine repeatedly violated Minsk and Minsk II in the years prior to the Russian invasion in 2022.

Uh? Colonizing a country and land that isn't theirs inherently violates multiple international laws. A treaty isn't somehow worth more than territorial integrity
