Ukrainian Lives Matter. Thank you, Joe Biden!

Zelensky Claims Biden Regime Baited Russia to Invade Ukraine... oops

Zelenskyy has harsh words for the West, too. He is an independent guy. Good for him.

Apparently he doesn’t need much Western help to push back Putin’s band of barely-trained and poorly-supplied cowards. :)

yup... can't wait for the press to report on his finances...

Ah yes, I can’t wait to see what the Kremlin disinformation mill spits out on this subject

Daily Dot... LOL

It's the least he can do since he created them... DUH

Next you’ll be saying Winston Churchill caused the Holocaust

Yes... I know you live in denial over on politicsTOO

Not really — plenty have labeled U.S. Presidents war criminals, G.W. Bush especially, and no one more than Putin is more interested currently in deflecting and whatabouting to past conflicts.

American-led wars weren’t always wise, but guess what? In America, we have the freedom to talk about that, and criticize our own government. We can elect new leaders who promise a different direction. Anti-war protests helped bring the misbegotten Iraq and Afghanistan Wars to an end. I wish you had that in your country.

11 million dead civilians lacks foundation. You can’t attribute nearly that many casualties to American bombs.

Anywho, thanks once again for showing your whole anti-American ass — this is fun

LOL... you forgot about the refugees they made... OOPS

Alright. I’m gonna ask you to put on your big brain for a second. Are you ready?

Imagine an alternative history timeline where the U.S. (and its allies, you always forget U.S. allies) never invaded Afghanistan in 2001, and never invaded Iraq in 2003.

So, in this timeline without “American imperial aggression,” the Taliban and Al-Qaeda are left to run amok in Afghanistan, and the Kurd- and Shia-genociding Saddam Hussein is left in charge of Iraq.

Do you contend that these awful governments in Iraq and Afghanistan *wouldn’t* have inflicted terrible losses on their own populations? Wouldn’t have continued committing human rights abuses and genocides left and right? Wouldn’t have caused refugee crises of their own?

American-led invasions failed to establish peaceful democracies, but that doesn’t mean America broke the political order in Afghanistan and Iraq. It was already broken when America arrived.

Very similar things could be said about Libya and the NATO intervention in 2011 that toppled Gaddafi right after he promised to squash his own people like “cockroaches” (an unmistakable threat of genocide), etc.

Are you still with me?

Now — compare all that with Ukraine — which was a functional, human-rights respecting democracy before Putin’s goons arrived and started chopping it up.

Ukraine defended its own people. Ukrainian-speaking, Russian-speaking, foreign, and otherwise. That’s what healthy democracies do. They function.

Ukraine’s refugee crisis is entirely on Putin.

Yes... I'm familiar with the term friendly fire...

Of course — the idea that this whole war consists of Ukrainians firing on themselves in confusion is a Kremlin-approved talking point, one of the few officially sanctioned ways for Russians to talk about what’s happening right now that won’t land you in jail

Anything else?

Keep denying Biden promoted and pushed for this war...

What do you think about Putin’s role in pushing this war?

What do you think about the US pushing Putin to go to war? They were predicting he would long before he started to assemble any kind of forces on his border...

Okay, now do the USSR and Russia over the same time period.

Ok, so you also want to deny what the US did to the American Indians too?

The U.S. had only a very minimal troop presence in Libya, there’s no way Hillary and “0bama” (lol) could have been involved in setting up slave markets.

99% of the violence in Libya is caused by tribal warlords going at each other — same as you’ll find in Iraq, Afghanistan, etc. — not American troops or bombs.

Your crap is too wild, lol, go back to Real_Politics with these conspiracy theories

No... but they were instrumental in creating the power vacuum... OOPS

America’s treatment of American Indians was disgusting, horrible and genocidal. And I can admit those historical facts about my country freely, since I live in a free country.

Now do the Russian Empire’s treatment of Ukrainians and Poles over the same period

So you think America didn't do the same again? Did you know Libya was once the most advanced country in Africa before 0bama and Clinton brought back human slave markets there??
