[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Comparing Saddam to Putin probably isn’t the winning argument you seem to think. [/quote]

I'm not comparing Putin to Saddam. I'm comparing a falsehood-inspired hysteria against Saddam and the terrible consequences it visited upon Iraq to the current discourse about Putin.

But you probably think the war in Iraq is a forgivable indiscretion because it's not like the bomb came down on your own house.   Half a million dead brown people, meh, who cares.  Let's weep for the blue-eyed instead.[/quote]

The war in iraq was wrong.  but you obviously know two wrongs don't make a right.  Just because the United States has done bad things doesn't mean that Putin isn't an idiot who should have known better and who is obviously in the wrong.[/quote]

That may all be true but what would you respond to Putin saying - hey, your president, too, invaded another country, that doesn't even share a border with you, for stupid made-up reasons, killed half a million people, and nothing really bad happened to him or your country.  So why do you say I'm not allowed to do the same?  [/quote]
