    Let's say Russia was bad in taking the Crimea. We should the US and / or the west do about it and why?

    Typical Democrat response.

    Ignore the facts and the evidence and just repeat the lie over and over again until people start to believe it.

    A bunch of pictures with vague context and no known provenance proves nothing.

    It looks like a bunch of pictures with no context and no attribution and no discernible connection to the point you're trying to make.

    In other words, it's just more Democrat propaganda and lies meant to further a dishonest narrative about Russian "aggression".

    If this is news to you then this is truly sad.
    And how many of those deaths have been caused by the illegal regime in Kiev and the neo-Nazi militias they're using to attack the separatists in the east?

    No he isn't. You've yet to address the thread topic in a meaningful way.

    Why does questioning the "Russian aggression" narrative make someone a Putin apologist, stooge, puppet, etc., while questioning the Iraq war does not make one a Saddam apologist? Did Saddam not display "aggression" towards other countries? Did Saddam not murder his own people and run a corrupt regime? According to Democrat "logic", anyone who opposed his removal was an apologist and a stooge for Saddam.

    @decedent can you explain that?
    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

    Because it's apples and oranges -- a false equivalency.

    I don't recall a war with Russia. I don't recall any President praising Hussein, or asking Hussein to hack America.

    Yes, which is why I supported the first Gulf war.


    In fact, Hussein did much the same thing as Putin: he stole a region and claimed it as part of his country.

    Yes, he and Putin seem to have this in common.
