If the way you choose to prevent genocide is by marching an army into a foreign country, that's called "offense". Your argument is sophistical.
- CRConrad 5y agoYes, but that's what Putler is doing. I was talking about the West helping the victims thereof to defend their homeland.
- lostmsu 5y agoThat's what he wants people to believe he is doing. But he actually started aggressive. Even if you don't take Crimea cause supposedly there was not much blood spilled, the invasion into Ukraine started on April 13, 2014 when Russian special forces killed a group of Ukrainian internal security officers deep into Ukrainian territory. There were no "victims" to defend at that point.
- CRConrad 5y agoYeah, bad writing on my part. I meant what he's doing is offense, not "preventing genocide".
