Racial aspect of Ukraine conflict ?

[Pantagruel]

I'm wondering if and when the "collateral damage" of the probable conflict hits the airwaves showing fair skinned , blue eyed bodies of women and children mangled and chopped as only cruel wars can, will that whiteness factor stir stronger emotions with our population and our UK, German and French allies. Will the response be different than if the carnage was affecting humans who simply don't look as much like our historically white, euro ethnicity? IOW, is racial empathy in pay here?

1. Absolutely

I’ve been churning around an idea for a thread on this. No doubt. American white middle class sees themselves in this.
