YES! That was the point of my very first post.
The government of Syria actually invited the Russians into their state to help them provide security, they didn't invite us.
THANK YOU!
It really makes no difference what we think of the Russians, it is none of our business. That is between the Syrians and the Russians.
The Crimean status
referendum was a controversial vote on the
political status of Crimea held on March 16, 2014 by the legislature of the
Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the local government of
Sevastopol (both
subdivisions of Ukraine). The referendum asked local populations whether they wanted to join
Russia as a
federal subject, or if they wanted to restore the
1992 Crimean constitution and Crimea's status as a part of
Ukraine. The official result from the Autonomous Republic of Crimea was a 97 percent vote for integration of the region into the Russian Federation with an 83 percent
voter turnout, and within the local government of
Sevastopol there was also a 97 percent vote for integration of the region into the Russian Federation with an 89 percent
voter turnout.

You don't just get to "vote" to go to a new Country. Russia invaded
. . .well, you know what? I guess that is what you get when the State Dept. funds Nazi's and promote a violent coup. And does it out in the open for the whole world to witness.
So go cry to someone who cares, b/c you know what? Claiming that the US has the moral high ground is bullshit, we started this mess, it is obvious. The voice of the people matter now. My original post and premise was, "when did the USA become the bad guys."
If your response is, the voice of what the people want doesn't matter? Thanks, you just reinforced my point, you admitted you have no problem with us being the bad guys. People don't matter, you are all for us being and supporting totalitarianism.
Screw the will of the people. Use thugs to overthrow their will, and then don't give them a say in their future. NICE.
Tere it is, you hate the US. Now I get it. You don't have any idea as to what you don't know.
We also signed a treaty promising to protect the Ukraine if they gave up their Nukes, they did, Obama didn't do what he should have.
I don't hate the US.
I actually love my nation more than any other.
The only thing I love more is my family and my community.
We also promised the Russians that we would not expand NATO in to former Warsaw Pact territory, and we have completely encircled them.
I know exactly what is going on.
The global elites are playing a dangerous game, and these elites don't give a shit about my family or my local community.
My small folks are pawns in their international games of power.
You lie and deny truth is what you do.
If we had kept our deals, the Russians would have kept theirs.
WTF did you think was going happen to the
Black Sea fleet and The
Sevastopol Naval Base when the CIA and State department funded neo-Nazis to engineer a coup?
Your claim that Russia invades an area where it owns a navel base?
And then calling me an America hater for calling you out on your bullshit?
Did you think the Russians were just going to give that strategic base up?
It has nothing to do with me loving or hating the US or not, it has to do with
REALPOLITIK and living in reality.
You are just parroting US TEE VEE and talk radio, mindless nationalist talk, and not talking truth.
I DON'T WANT WWIII for these psychopathic globalist elites, be they Neo-liberals or Neo-conservatives, and their never ending quest for power and wealth.
. . . maybe you do. But I am not an idiot sheep.
"We also promised the Russians that we would not expand NATO in to former Warsaw Pact territory, and we have completely encircled them."
They were not supposed to invade Crimea either but they did.
"

I've sourced everything I said kid. I don't lie about anything. Ever.
Tell me , when did our problems start?
"The voice of the people matter now"
You can't "vote" yourself out of a nation.
"Your claim that Russia invades an area where it owns a navel base?
And then calling me an America hater for calling you out on your bullshit?"
Russia invaded the Ukraine kid, they invaded and annexed the Crimea. You do know they are still fighting in the Ukraine, right? Yours has been the bullshit son, you just like being lapped around for being silly.
"You are just parroting US TEE VEE and talk radio, mindless nationalist talk, and not talking truth."
The fall back position of every out thought Prog. You're losing with every post.
"I DON'T WANT WWIII for these psychopathic globalist elites, be they Neo-liberals or Neo-conservatives, and their never ending quest for power and wealth."
You're going to get it because it will start in Iran.
". . . maybe you do. But I am not an idiot sheep"
I've already fought and bled kid. I harbor no illusions about what war is.
