Russia is a criminal state.[/quote]

it's not like Russian-owned assets abroad were left in peace you know.[/quote]

Lots of people weren't aware of this, or stuck their head in the sand when it happened. Between random Russians getting their property stolen and the whole nation getting kicked off SWIFT, it really turned a lot of countries against the US. [/quote]

It's not like that happened for no reason.  Maybe you're unaware that Russia conducted an illegal and illegitimate invasion of their neighbor, an attack and invasion which was almost universally condemned and an overwhelming majority of nations voted in the UN to demand Russia's complete withdrawal.  [b]Maybe don't invade for no reason other than your own lies. [/b] As for "a lot of countries turned against the US" be honest - that's the 5 or so countries still in Russia's pathetic orbit like Belarus, Syria and Cuba.

I agree, you truly are clownish.  I certainly hope you don't actually believe any of the ridiculous talking points you're posting. Certainly nobody else here does.[/quote]

Oh dear.

That's already been discussed and flogged to death over and over again.  If you want to talk about Iraq, go start a new thread.  This thread is about Russia's invasion of Ukraine.[/quote]

If only it were just Iraq... Why do we have a base and support a bunch of separatists in Syria again? [/quote]

Why does Russia have bases in Syria again?[/quote]

Straight from wiki:
In 1971, under an agreement with President Hafez al-Assad, the Soviet Union was allowed to open its naval military base in Tartus, giving the Soviet Union a stable presence in the Middle East.[5][6] Thousands of Syrian military officers and educated professionals studied in Russia during al-Assad's presidency (1971–2000).[23]

Note the difference, one was invited in and one is an invader. [/quote]

Syria fragmented after the Arab Spring in 2011 and several years in, Assad only had claim to the western portion of Syria, whereas Kurds and opposition groups had established control and set up governments in other parts of the country.  In 2014, the US and its allies were invited in by the Kurds and other parties to help them fight ISIS.  [/quote]

LOL so you're saying that Donetsk and Lugansk governments (controlled by opposition groups that set up governments) could invite in anyone?

In any case, ISIS is gone but the American base isn't.

Why?[/quote]

Because Assad wants to slaughter the people who don't bow to him.[/quote]

Wait you're saying that's not allowed?

I'm confused.  If it's OK not to bow to the government, why did the US help suppress the Bahrain uprising where people didn't want to bow to the monarchy government?

Oh yes yes I see.  Lesser evil.  Can't have these monkeys have a role in ruling themselves.  [/quote]

Yes, I totally recall when the US helped the government of Bahrain slaughter over 140,000 civilians, displace millions and reduce its second-biggest city of a population of 2 million to rubble.

Oh wait, that wasn't Bahrain, that was Syria.  And it wasn't the US, it was Russia.[/quote]
