> The US is not the one fighting this war I wrote 'foolish proxy war between the US and Russia', the whole point of a proxy war is that one does not fight it directly, otherwise it would be just: war. > please stop using whataboutism Calling out hypocrisy is not whataboutism. > Plenty of people condemned USA's and UK's invasion of the middle east (including their own citizens) Compared to what we are seeing now: nobody has condemned the USA. I don't recall the US being hard hit by sanctions for all the countries it has wrecked for no good reason. > countries stepped in to help and support the invaded countries fight back (including Russia) - just like we're seeing here from Ukraine's allies I never implied that it didn't happen in the middle east as well. Please stop straw-manning me.
