The analogy would be a bank taking money from Spankee's accounts and then giving him whatever was left--if anything. In other words, pulling a Spankee scam on Spankee.
Actually, it's a riff on what the EU has been talking about: using frozen Russian assets to fund Ukraine's defense, except it's turned around so the aggressor is using the assets of the country it attacked.
