Unless of course they need our tax money for the war machine, then all of a sudden it's "evil Putin invaded without proper cause" in your face 24/7. So you accept 40B is spend on a war, and not on fixing domestic problems.
I dont see how this Ukraine crisis is so much different from the west's invasions of Vietnam, Cuba, Iraq 1&2, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria and making Kosovo a sovereign state.
- phantomathkg 4y agoMany of the war you mentioned are approved by UN. So are you say UN is evil? For example Iraq 1 started due to Saddam Hussain invade Kuwait.
- CyMonk 4y ago> For example Iraq 1 started due to Saddam Hussain invade Kuwait. ... but it didn't start when he invaded Iran. i wonder why?!? (rhetorical question ofc).
- cies 4y agoKuwait was drilling directionally into a Iraqi oil field. This has been kept from us in the news, but it is the real reason. Saddam wanted Kuwait to pay up. Kuwait did not so they got invaded. Exactly what the US needed to get in: more war, more oil contracts. And yes the UN is evil. But that's besides the point. What leverage do you think Iraq has in the UN, vs what the US has?
