Russia

He doesn't want to go all out because then it would be an actual invasion, which it is not by the way.
Russia is "assisting" the "rebels" fighting for "independence".
Yes, that's fucking bullshit, but it's the same bullshit all sides do and have been doing for longer than any of us have been alive.

No matter how many media agencies call it an invasion, it's technically not. Just like we didn't invade all of those middle eastern nations in recent times.

More profitable opportunities for Russian oligarchs. I fail to see the problem here.

You've forgotten the part about them being under sanction and having most of their foreign assets seized? They can't afford to rebuild Ukraine

One of the CIA's sleeper agents was activated during a Russian news broadcast.

Will she get gang-raped before or after being sent to a Gulag?

Do we know it is a Russian news program? Slavs are sometimes hard to differentiate.

[Newhalf]

I call it an invasion, but I also called what we did in Kosovo an invasion. I'm kinda weird I guess tihihi.

We shouldn't have done that shit either. Are you saying what Putin is doing now is as fucking retarded as what the US did in Afghanistan?

What I believe he's suggesting is that it's certainly no worse than any of those, despite the moral outrage in the 'international community' over Ukraine and their comparative silence over Iraq, Afghanistan, etc

I mean, there was a hell of a lot of rage over Afghanistan and Iraq when we were early on into the wars. Tons of people screaming about blood for oil. Problem is, none of them had any power to do shit about it. Both the left and right were in bed with PMCs and megacorps looking for that cheap petrochem, and the Global Jew wanted to flex their might. Eventually, people in the USA stopped mentioning the endless Forever War. Because they got tired or they became hypocrites (when their candidate was in office.) It didn't matter what they said anyway because they never had any ability to stop the war. When you vote on a war issue in America, your vote is truly, 100% fucking worthless.

And look how (((well))) that war worked out for the USA. A shitload of terrible press, a steady drip-feed of dead US soldiers, terrorist organizations are as strong ever (energized by western war crimes) and we gave them a ton of our weapons when we left. But private corporations made a bundle and the bloated military-industrial complex justified its own increasingly-extravagant funding.

If what Putin is doing now is in any way similar to what we've done in the middle east, he should take our bad example and stop right away.

I'd say it's way worse thanks to the international backlash being a lot more hardcore.
Is this fair for this "special military operation"? Probably not. Not that it matters. The powers that be don't care about ethics.
