  1. So it was ok for America to ‘liberate’ Iraq, but it’s not ok for Russia to ‘liberate’ Ukraine. Go figure. 👌

  2.  @AmricanEagl  America and its partners illegally invaded your country in 2003. Russia illegally invaded Ukraine in 2022. So what’s the difference?

  3.  @josephduram7423  That’s exactly the point I’m making! None of it is ‘ok’!

  4. @Alastair Wallace ‘Whataboutery’ is just the latest term double-standards hypocrites use to distract from their own terrible crimes.

  5.  @leephillips3924  Indeed. I was just pointing out the weird double-standards of the pro-Ukraine cheerleaders. I’m neutral here. All of the West’s murderous, illegal interventions were wrong; Putin’s murderous, illegal intervention is wrong.

  7.  @StepDub  Iraq was America doing what America does since about 1776. At the time justified as being all about Iraq’s (non-existent) WMDs – or other purported goals, such as a desire to “spread democracy” or satisfy the oil or Israel lobbies; the real reason the Bush administration invaded Iraq was the same reason Truman dropped (unnecessarily) the atomic bomb on Nagasaki and Hiroshima: its demonstration effect. As with this latter barbaric, immoral atrocity, which was intended to send a post-WW2 message to the rest of the world (particularly the USSR) of “don’t mess with us, or else”, a quick and decisive victory in the heart of the Arab world would send a message to all countries, especially to recalcitrant regimes such as Syria, Libya, Iran, or North Korea, that American hegemony was here to stay.

  8.  @DominicPaz  Yes, but the US, historically, hasn’t needed to annex as it just blunders in and overthrows democratically-elected governments and installs regimes favourable to its interests. This has been its modus-operandi for a good century.
