Is Ukraine Becoming the Next Israel?

Alex examines how the Russia-Ukraine war may be accelerating a troubling new era of autonomous warfare, including reports that Ukraine considered using AI-guided drone swarms to disrupt Moscow’s civilian airports. He draws a cautious comparison between Ukraine and Israel, asking what happens when a country increasingly doubts its allies will protect it and concludes that survival requires acting on its own. Alex argues that Western hesitation may be pushing Ukraine toward greater military self-reliance, while warning that the technologies developed out of wartime necessity could reshape warfare long after the conflict ends.
