Once upon a time the United States put the world on the brink of Nuclear War because we didn't like what was going on in Cuba.
Once upon a time the United States unleashed all kinds of human rights abuses because we didn't like those Commies being in Central America.
Ronnie Reagan sent the marines off for a Caribbean vacation because a few Cubans were in Grenada.
The list goes on for days.
The United States has constantly meddled in Ukraine including installing a rabid anti-Russian president by Coup. The United States has trained Ukrainian militias for years.
Anybody who discussed taking a step back and re-thinking our whole strategy in Ukraine was labeled a Putin Puppet. These same people have said for a decade that our actions in Ukraine, if they did not change would lead to war.
Your NeoCon leaders DNGAF about Ukraine except as a means to an end, they want a bloody proxy war and they want to use that to topple Putin. The longer this war rolls on, the more unpopular Putin will become in his own country.
