Is nazis in ukraine the same as wmds in iraq? Not really?
This is all just history repeating really.
Iraq did invade Kuwait of their own accord and fully annexed. UN security council fully condemned and demanded they leave kuwait.

Gulf war starts and Iraq was defeated. They had to agree to stop being douches.
UN security council was defied: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nations_Security_Council_Resolution_678 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nations_Security_Counci...
The videos showing the aftermath of the nerve agent wmds used by Iraq against civilians were crazy frightening. literally entire towns were laying on the ground unable to breath. Not dead yet, just unable to breath. While technically nobody knows if Iraq fired them or not... it pretty much is the case they are the only ones who would. Iraq terminated their relationship with the UN and ejected all the UN observers.
In super hindsight, those sarin and vx bombs ended up being used in syria. It's not really a question whether or not Iraq had these weapons. The whole yellow cake nuclear stuff was unclear but that wasn't really confirmed that Iraq ever got nukes.

Everyone voted for this. China, France, Russia, UK, and USA supported stopping Iraq.
Russia on the otherhand? What UN security council resolutions have they got to back up this invasion of Ukraine? Nazis?
They went and made good friends with China to use them as a shield for their invasion. Even Pakistan who hates Russia suddenly becoming their friends. Over what? Fear of the USA? The USA isnt even involved in this besides just being united with Europe's approach.
More like they are afraid Russia is going to nuke them if they dont comply. I dont know. Looks to me like they are surrounding India.
Really though. The USA's war exhaustion is maxed out. They've been at war for over 20 years. They need to withdraw from all their wars and focus back at home. Start talking about peace and the need to only help where the UN and their allies agree.

Like the USA has practically always been at war. I do believe right about the year 2000 they had no active wars. The USA loves war... they need to back off for a little while.
- spacemanmatt 5y agoThe notion of 'active' wars has been all too fluid over here. We had been involved in the Bosnia and Herzegovina intervention as recently as the mid-90s so nothing really got a proper chance to cool down.

We had been involved in the Bosnia and Herzegovina intervention as recently as the mid-90s so nothing really got a proper chance to cool down. I didn't know NATO was involved at all. My understand it was entirely United Nations. Reading it, still seems that way to me. Kind of feels like it was UN peacekeeping mislabeled as NATO. We just need to stop all this war shit. Step back and shore ourselves up.
- spacemanmatt 5y agoWikipedia says NATO was involved 1992-1995, and that checks out with me recollection of those years. I was pretty young, and wondered why I kept hearing about this one foreign war that wasn't even involving the U.S.
