Their freedom and democracy excuse for their never-ending interference in other countries affairs would be akin to a Fox saying he wants to get into the hen house to help them out. They also have no problem whatsoever with murderous dictators, their support of Pol Pot is evidence of that.

Dohnjoe, if a country is such a nightmare for the people who live there then why do you think that the best course of action is to make it even worse?

How bad is life for Venezuelans as opposed to Uzbeks or Saudis?

Gotta help these poor people right? I still hear Americans bemoan the fact that US soldiers were killed in Iraq "after all we did to he!p these ragheads"

Saddam Hussain was one of their golden boys for a long time.

Not surprising they only want to talk about what rt and sputnik say

But this great defeat was last year according to your news links. Don't you think it remarkable that they didn't have a national holiday in the US for such a victory considering they had fireworks displays when they offed Bin Laden?

How many medals of honor were awarded for what is the greatest martial display since the Spartans took on the Persians. And without a single casualty!! Even the Spartans suffered casualties.

You're missing the point, what we have is a country with a proven track record of meddling/regime change and its nearly always the same old ding dong, sanctions, start accusing the leader of being a dictator who doesn't care about his people, start street protests and funneling money to "opposition" chaos and bloodshed follow, congrats welcome to US regime change 101

An "opposition" leader that usually springs out of nowhere, like Guaido. Declared himself president no less, and wins instant recognition from the US.

You are misunderstanding. That's an event, related directly to Putin.

There are posters solely in here to attack "countries and their history", not the administrations involved. We're getting Cold war references in here - nothing to do with Putin, or May, or Merkel, or Trump

It's like some individuals actually personify an entire nation, it's multiple leaders from different parties and decades of history into something they can "hate"

Historical events don't happen in a vacuum.. Al queda and 9/11 didn't just spring up out of nowhere in 2001. Their origins go back to American interference during g the Carter and Reagan governments.

And there are also plenty on here who in their zeal to lambaste Putin will enthusiastically make reference to Stalin's purges and Brezhnev 's Afghanistan.

It stems back before those two actually, thanks not only to the USA but the USSR also. I'm sure you will accept this truth and not try to blindly deny it or respond with whataboutism as that would make no sense given I am saying both shoulder a lot of blame.

That's largely a false narrative.

The election wasn't considered a real election, nor was it properly monitored. As such, the world (with the exception of about 7 countries) rejected it. The Kremlin sparked a war in Eastern Ukraine, directly supplying men, tanks, armaments, anti-aircraft equipment, etc

Actually the referendum was monitored by international observers from 27 countries including MPs from Poland, Latvia, Bulgaria and Austria. There were even MEPs and they reported no evidence of any subterfuge wwhatsoever They even maintained that the referendum complied with EU standards.

These were people who were actually there.

Lol next you will be telling us sinn fein was there over seeing everything.

But the facts Russian forces pushed through a referendum under threat of violence to rejoin Russia,

Now tell us how that was legal when the outcome was already decided by Putin and not the people of Ukraine


The international community widely condemned the Declaration of Independence. A major source of criticism was that the referendum's adoption came after the building of the Supreme Council of Crimea was seized by the Russian military prior to adoption. During that time, no journalists were allowed inside the building to witness the council seating on the referendum.[3] The Council seating on the referendum was not included the in Supreme Council's original schedule, which had no meetings originally scheduled for March 11, 2014. Deputies were forcefully brought to the building by Russian militants,[4] and there is no evidence that there was quorum,[5] which was a requirement for the seating to even occur.

as an independent state[7][8] and agreed to incorporate the Republic into Russian Federation. However, the international community condemned the referendum as undemocratic and illegal.[9] On 27 March 2014, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the "Territorial Integrity of Ukraine" Resolution, which recognized the referendum as part of the illegal annexation of Crimea by the Russian Federation.[10] One hundred nations, including the United States, the United Kingdom, Belgium, the Netherlands, and other democratic nations, voted in favour of the resolution. Fifty-eight abstained, and a further eleven voted against. The votes against included the Russian Federation, Venezuela, Armenia, and other nations with close economic and political ties to Russia.

I haven't tried to blindly deny anything. I've merely pointed out that references to the past machinations of governments are unavoidable when dealing with those of the present. If anything you should be aware of this rather than dismissing it as irrelevant.

The Americans and British did out the same evil in Iraq. Carried out 9/11, denoted bombs to bring down the world trade centre and used the mainstream media to go after Iraq. Dropped 100,000 tons of bombs on schools, hospitals and infrastructure mainly while the Iraqi people slept in their beds. Completely destroyed the country so they could gain control of their oil and stop the sale of oil in euros instead of US petrodollars.

It was nice of the Americans and British to show up for last orders at the tail end of WW2 after the Russians had done the lions share of the fighting. Even after sitting on their arses for four years they still had a hard time fighting heavily depleted fuel and ammunition starved divisions, old men and boys in France.
