The double standards of the West in this conflict are staggering. America, along with its partners, has the most prolific record of any country on this planet in terms of actual invasion and/or the overturning of democratically elected governments. What Russia is doing, invading another self-governing, sovereign nation, is wrong, but what about the dozens of times the West has done this? In the last 40 years alone America’s record is: 1. Grenada (1983-1984) 2. Bolivia (1986) 3. Virgin Islands (1989) 4. Liberia (1990; 1997; 2003) 5. Saudi Arabia (1990-1991) 6. Kuwait (1991) 7. Somalia (1992-1994; 2006) 8. Bosnia (1993-) 9. Zaire/Congo (1996-1997) 10. Albania (1997) 11. Sudan (1998) 12. Afghanistan (1998; 2001-) 13. Yemen (2000; 2002-) 14. Macedonia (2001) 15. Colombia (2002-) 16 Pakistan (2005-) 17. Syria (2008; 2011-) 18. Uganda (2011) 19. Mali (2013) 20. Niger (2013) 21. Yugoslavia (1919; 1946; 1992-1994; 1999) 22. Iraq (1958; 1963; 1990-1991; 1990-2003; 1998; 2003-2011) 23. Angola (1976-1992) As far as I can see what Putin and Russia are doing is playing the most commonly-heard tune in the West’s geopolitical songbook.

Yeah, but that’s no defence, mate. Putin and Russia are clearly wrong in what they are doing, as any impartial observer can see. However, the West’s egregious, ugly history of foreign invasion/intervention/overturning democratically elected governments just serves to put into relief the staggering double-standard here.
