Russian speaking Ukrainians. How could I mean otherwise? (I'm really asking)

Because they are Ukrainian citizens in a way that Palestinians are not Israeli citizens so your metaphor falls pretty flat. Arab Israelis exist, are citizens, and do just fine with (and many even prefer) the Jewish government.

Russian speaking Ukrainians are to Ukrainians as Arab Israelis are to Israelis. Not Palestinians are to Israelis. Heck, Zelensky is a Russian speaking Ukrainian.

The similarity is the bombing the shit of out them, "citizenship" is irrelevant. But hey, if you want to excuse either, that's you're choice.
