Folks can play all the partisan rhetorical games they want. It all boils down to the order to attack. That's on one (1) guy, and all excuses go out the window at that moment. And that one guy in this case was Putin, Trump's pal.The Neo-GOP love to parrot Russian Propaganda because they think it makes Trumpybears enemies cry.
"The short version: Russia invaded Ukraine — not the other way around. On 24 February 2022, Russia launched a full-scale military assault on its neighbor. Ukraine didn’t fire the first shot. It didn’t provoke Russia with missiles. It was invaded.
This war didn’t begin overnight. The seeds were planted years before."

"Vladimir Putin gave a range of justifications for launching the war — claiming he was protecting Russian-speaking Ukrainians, preventing NATO expansion, and even denazifying Ukraine (despite the fact that Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelensky, is Jewish).
But none of those excuses hold up."
I remember squabbling with Dubya supporters here about his wars (interestingly, they're peaceniks now). They defended them, and their best "excuse" was that Congress approved them. As if that forced Bush to give the order.
It's bullshit. In both cases, one (1) guy made the decision. No one else, nothing else, mattered.
