      Israel does not want to anger Russia, they claim because of Russian proximity to Israel.

      Israel has a ban on sending Israeli weapons to Ukraine, for other countries which bought the Israeli weapons and want to send them for free.

        Thats fair, times are very different. After the fall of the USSR there was a lot of fear around “nuclear material” being freely available, and Russia was tied up in geopolitical nonsense for providing Iran with support for nuclear power development. Israel at the time was very mad about that, along with the USA. Sure feels like things keep coming back to 1991.
