What’s next, bullets are responsible for deaths not the people who fired them? Are you seriously trying to say that this whole.mess had zero, utterly nothing whatsoever in any way,shape or form to do with the US invasion. I’m not pushing for admissions nor am I going to attack you over it, can’t you admit you were…

Sure weren’t there all those suicide bombings in Baghdad,Iraqi army bases being captured and soldiers executed in the desert in their thousands back in the 80s and 90s. Nope. Iraqi society was at peace

I have never ever applauded Russia for anything, in fact on numerous occasions I have slammed it as a corrupt impoverished shithole. I want to see consistency, nothing more nothing less. If X can do it Y can do it.

It is a fascinating war to play out. Would it end instantly with a nuclear weapons? Would there even be enough time for a ground invasion? Will the people revolt? I wonder how much damage the US and SK could do with a surprise attack like Israel’s attack on the Egyptian air force in the Six Day War.

Start swimming to Japan!

I don’t hate America at all, your assumption that a criticism of US foreign policy equates to a hatred of the US is concerning. Are you beyond criticism? McCarthyism strikes again. I love the US, hands down one of the greatest countries on earth, I just disagree with foreign policy.

It is Russian soil. Unless you extend that logic to all of Europe and then its gonna get messy.Gdansk in Poland is weirdly considered Polish but its actually the German city of Danzig

I’ll dumb it down for you OK. Let’s just say there is a house with multiple people living there, all kept in check by a stern landlord. Now these people hate each other and the only thing stopping them from killing each other is the landlord. Now let’s say I burst into the house and kill the landlord. Then the people…

Gotcha terrorists in Syria - Good. Terrorists in Gaza - Bad.

You invaded and overthrew the government. Fact. You disbanded the Iraqi Army. Fact. Iraq was at peace from at least the 1980s onwards until the fall of Saddam. Fact. This is your mess, denying it won’t change it.

You walked into that one bro.

So now the definition of illegal is up for dispute? Holding Syrian land with no legal right, building settlements with no legal right. The people here decrying evil Russia over Crimea (its own territory) just shrug their shoulders over Israel doing the same thing.

You needed to be sent to a warzone for a basic geography lesson?

Utter nonsense, they are “moderate rebels” and deserve air strike support, anti tank missiles, surface to air missiles, assault rifles and more. If we can arm terrorists in Syria why not there? End result is the same, widespread ethnic slaughter, collapse of (relative) secularism,

Jews and Muslims have been fighting for centuries! I cringe when people say that, its is literally the stupidest comment you could make

And it was the biggest tactical mistake since Operation Barbarossa. They are Americans man, clueless idiots of the highest order, not one could point to Iraq on a map.

How did Irish invade America? The British got there, slaughtered the natives and opened the doors.I suppose the Germans and Polish and Italian and Greek invaded too? Idiot

Why are terrorists in Syria OK then?

They are actually “moderate rebels” fighting the Israeli regime

It sets a bad precedent for a start, when Russia gets the western backed international terrorists in Syria backed into a what is to stop them from shipping them off to Siberia as “enemy combatants” If anyone else but the US did this there would be uproar
