(5) Overall, our findings indicate that historical analogies can be a powerful rhetorical tool, but they may be more effective in shaping policy attitudes when used early in a conflict or foreign policy crisis.

(4) However, only in Israel did exposure to the analogy increase public support for specific assistance to Ukraine. Why? We suggest that, compared to the other three countries, Israel provided noticeably less assistance to Ukraine. Thus, public opinion had more room to shift.

(3) To study the effects of President Zelensky’s historical analogies, we simultaneously fielded survey experiments in four countries – the US, the UK, Germany, and Israel. In all four, those exposed to the analogy had an emotional reaction consistent with the content of the speech.

(2) Leaders often use historical analogies to mobilize public opinion around foreign policy events. Most memorable are Zelensky’s speeches, comparing Russia’s invasion of Ukraine to Pearl Harbor and 9/11 (in the US), World War II (in the UK), and the Holocaust (in Germany and Israel).

That's a different one, but the best papers are constructivists who do experiments!
