  11. ​ @jeremyisaac4958  I didn't buy the WMDs in Iraq. I was protesting physically in front of US Embassy. ... My whole point is that USA and Russia can make 100 agreements, they are all invalid, because only people of Ukraine decide what happens in their country, and nobody else. This is some 19th century colonial mentality when "superpowers" traded entire countries (colonies) between each other... as if there were no free people living there who are the only ones who can make such decisions. We are 200 years later, no colonies, no spheres of influence - all countries have equal rights - both Russia, Estonia, Ukraine, USA - same rights... like all people are equal, all countries are equal. So if Russia puts 150 000 soldiers right on the border of Ukraine, that is Russia's right and nobody can sanction them or attack them with military (as nobody did), it's within their borders - none of anyone's business. Same if Ukraine puts nuclear weapons right on the border with Russia, Russia cannot sanctions Ukraine and cannot attack them with military - it is within borders of Ukraine, Russia has no rights there at all. ... Putin repeated throughout his life that 1991 dissolution of Soviet Union was greatest tragedy in history (probably meant Russian history but said history)... again and again, and also wrote long articles how Ukraine is not a real country (Ukraine existed long before Russia) and that all land was given to it by Tsars in 1654... and on the day of invasion he had one hour rant about this and even shown maps of Ukraine from 1654 - just watch it yourself straight from Putin's mouth, no bias, no western media. He is just trying to rebuild the great empire Russia once was. And many old Russians are nostalgic about their empire, and several tanks use SOVIET flag with hammer and sickle and not Russian flag (watch video from Russian Ministry of Defense - it's right there, again, no western media, no bias, straight from Russian government). This is the reason - same as Crimea and Donbas, Putin wants all of Ukraine. He is rebuilding an empire.
