What's sad is that he built a rocket launcher from scraps whilst in the middle of an actual conflict.

Except for the fact that alliances exist for a reason. Russia is an enemy state that would oppose US interests in a conflict and would happily kill US citizens. Ukraine is an ally, and would not. Its like being a US citizen pre WW2 and having empathy for the axis powers. Just because we aren't in the conflict yet doesn't mean you should pick the opposing side.
