Let’s look at it this way. US invaded Iraq under false pretense. They never received any sanctions for it what so ever. Now Russia invades Crimea for which they actually have better reasons then the Americans had back then. Does the western civilization really have the right to call for sanctions now? Best solution. Ask the people of each part of Ukraine what they really want. Most likely western Ukraine will want to be part of the EU. The most eastern part will desire stronger ties with Russia and the middle area will be somewhere in between. � �
What false pretenses was that? �The intelligence was wrong, but that’s not the same as making a reason up and then invading for an entirely different set of reasons. �Even the people who disagreed with the Iraq war in 2003 thought the intelligence was correct–they just disagreed on the military course of action.
Does Western Civilization really have the right to call for sanctions? �I think it’s telling that you don’t consider Russia a part of Western Civilization.
Russia is not West. Russia is East.
Invasion of Iraq was an imperial genocidal act of one frenzy world cop (USA administration of George Bush jr.) instructed by its neo-cons that seat in Pentagon.
The whole Arab Spring (CIA spring) put Libya, Syria and Egypt to stone age. Luckily, Egypts army found it
s way to take care of things.
USA should stay out of Ukraine. George Soros and it`s stupid NGO-s are instructing Springs and Revolutions all over the globe, without any love to countries they are dealing with.
Janukovič is not a pro-Moscow guy and anti.Ukrainian. He just saw that Russia is offering 15 billion dolars, and that EU is offering nothing but liberating the Ukrainian economy, which will be crippled once EU enters their market.
I imagine a situation in which a few thousand protesters gather in front of White House, call Obama for somehing, and then the street forces him to resign.
Would anybody in USA and the West accept it? Off course not.
And Obama administration is waging wars all over the globe, torchering people in Guantanamo, forcing catholic hospitals to make abortions ,etc.
So , for the accusation of dictatorship, well , almost every government in the world is dictatorship, either by doing some stuff, or by not doing, by not preventing criminal, poverty and injustice.
And USA is full of criminal. Especially among Black and Hispanic population. U have quarters in which police does not enter. Is it normal? It is not. And if somebody makes protests, his demands are not fulfilled, and he wants Guantanamo down, or leaving Iraq etc. Would Obama resign?
USA has an ally in one perverted country called Saudi Arabia which is the main founder of islamic terrorism all over the globe. And nobody in the States makes problem of it.
USA, Saudi Arabia and Turkey are responsible for an agression in Syria in which millions had to leave their homes. Libya was under dictator Gadaffi, the most prosperous state in Africa. Now it is a ruin. Iraq under dictator Sadam was a safe, and secure country. Now it is a ruin with millions killed, rape or exiled. Arab countries do not need democracies, especially not CIA democracies. They are far better with military junta like in Egypt. that is simply the reality of life.
