Russia Ukraine war, page-235995

I actually agree with most of what you said in that post, Iraq was based on lies....

But that is no justification for Russian population supporting or being conned into invading Ukraine, the world has largely worked out that the pretext for Iraq was manufactured or over interpreted. Bush jnr was not a smart dude bent by advisers and Sadams background.

The two events separated by decades and didn't involve a single Ukraine

The neocons of USA a few decades ago are being replicated in Russia, but it is worse without checks or balances empowered by a dictator with an ideology instead of humanity. Let's face it Putin is ex KGB, he has dismantled the shoots of democracy in Russia, throttled the media.
