What country is the US invading?
Iraq's Parliament voted out all Americans after the Soleimani hit. Still there, even after invading them (twice) by both members of the Bush crime family.The US has bases in Syria. we never withdrew from some.
What country is the US invading?
How is this relevant to Russia massing troops at the border of Ukraine? Because, which country has annexed more territory from another country since 2000?Now answer my question! Who has killed more since 2000? Russia or Murica?
America AINEC.How is this relevant to Russia massing troops at the border of Ukraine? Because, which country has annexed more territory from another country since 2000?
Interesting. Where are these large tracts of land?America AINEC.
Large swaths of Syria and Iraq. Even the premise of this thread is tied up in the fact that we act like we own the E.U. and Germany is merely a vassal state. I mean, we're talking about cutting off their gas supply without even asking for permission.Interesting. Where are these large tracts of land?
LOL.

Definition of invasion
1: an act of invading especially : incursion of an army for conquest or plunder
LOLWe are already there. "IS" invading. JFC. We are in Germany. We are sending troops
You need to learn what "annexing territory" means. The rest of your statement is ridiculous.Large swaths of Syria and Iraq. Even the premise of this thread is tied up in the fact that we act like we own the E.U. and Germany is merely a vassal state. I mean, we're talking about cutting off their gas supply without even asking for permission.
Yeah, a lot of people are showing their ignorance in this thread. It's nice to get it all out in the light.You need to learn what "annexing territory" means. The rest of your statement is ridiculous.
Well, we essentially annexed the Ukraine in 2014 when we orchestrated a coup against the dually elected President and set up a puppet regime.You need to learn what "annexing territory" means. The rest of your statement is ridiculous.
Yeah, funny how they all seem to lean to the right, isn't it?Yeah, a lot of people are showing their ignorance in this thread. It's nice to get it all out in the light.
JFC. Dude, you can't just go on inventing your own definitions to words.Well, we essentially annexed the Ukraine in 2014 when we orchestrated a coup against the dually elected President and set up a puppet regime.
What do you think we’re doing occupying part of Syria and stealing their natural resources?Oh man. No wonder wingers are in la la land.
Definitions are so passe. Just ask your "science" practicing brethren on here.JFC. Dude, you can't just go on inventing your own definitions to words.
So, you choose to avoid answering that uncomfortable admission as well. It's when Putin came to power. Context.How is this relevant to Russia massing troops at the border of Ukraine? Because, which country has annexed more territory from another country since 2000?
Don't be hard on yourself. You do it in every thread.Yeah, a lot of people are showing their ignorance in this thread. It's nice to get it all out in the light.
I asked you how the question was relevant, I don't give a shit about your question because it is just deflecting from the issue. But then you attempt to deflect even farther by your disertation straight from the Department of Russian Propaganda that attempts to explain how bombing somebody is the same as Russian troops literally taking over Crimea and incorporating it into their own territory. Just because the US has helped countries to not be forced to genuflect to Russia doesn't make that the United States "annexing" them.So, you choose to avoid answering that uncomfortable admission as well. It's when Putin came to power. Context.
But, I'll answer yours. You could easily argue that Washington via NATO has annexed more territory. They violated the agreement made on this day, 2/9/90, when the West agreed not to move 1 inch east of Germany. Since then, they swallowed up 14 former Warsaw Pact members, bombed Serbia for 78 straight days, annexed Kosovo illegally, invaded Syria, Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan and a list longer than the Dead Sea Scrolls. They have green lighted Israel to steal more land in Occupied Palestine Territory while throwing people out of their homes to bulldoze the buildings to build more settlements in violation of international law.
NATO Expansion: What Gorbachev Heard | National Security Archive

Back to Ukraine...you must get a clue as to what indivisibility of security means. Russia sat idle while NATO aggressed eastwards because they were too weak as their country collapsed twice in 100 years.
- Feb. 1, 2008: Amid rumors of NATO planning to offer membership to Ukraine, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov warns U.S. Ambassador William Burns that “Nyet Means Nyet.” Russia will react strongly to any move to bring Ukraine or Georgia into NATO. Thanks to WikiLeaks, we have Burns’s original cable from embassy in Moscow.
- April 3, 2008: Included in Final Declaration from NATO summit in Bucharest: “NATO welcomes Ukraine’s and Georgia’s Euro-Atlantic aspirations for membership in NATO. We agreed today that these countries will become members of NATO.”
Then State Dept. stooge, Mikhail Saakashvili of Georgia invades Russia and gets put in his place.RAY McGOVERN: Ukraine For Dummies

Georgia started war with Russia: EU-backed report
An independent report blamed Georgia on Wednesday for starting last year's five-day war with Russia, but said Moscow's military response went beyond reasonable limits and violated international law.www.reuters.com
Washington overthrew the democratically elected leader of Ukraine because he changed his mind in Vilnius on 11/21/13 and decided not to join the EU Association Agreement that would have led to NATO/EU membership. Yanukovych even agreed to move up the elections. Washington and Soros would not wait because they loathe free choice. Yes, Soros through his ownership in Hromadske TV in partnership with the Dutch Embassy fomented a revolution to their NGO's on the ground and in Maidan.
This was all an aggression concocted by the neocons to wrestle away Crimea and Russia's only warm water naval base since 1783 to shut down Russia's international shipping lanes. Russia is already guaranteed this territory until 2042 under the Kharkiv Accord. Crimea WAS NOT ANNEXED as the free people of Crimea sought protection from the neo-Nazi government in Kiev who was slaughtering their own countrymen in Donbass because they dared speak Russian. The law had since been rescinded. The same language the majority of Crimeans speak. Crimeans voted overwhelmingly to secede from Ukraine and join Russia. Freedom...ain't it a bitch. The separatists in Donetsk and Lughansk saw this and they voted to join Russia as well, but, Moscow would not accept their aspirations. An autonomous region was set up under the Minsk agreement. This is a civil war and Kiev is bombing their own people.
FFWD to today: This whole thing could be put to bed by close of business today. All Ukraine has to do is implement the Minsk Accord that they signed and was ratified under UN law. Russia is not a signatory to this. France and Germany are guarantors and need to force Ukraine to implement. Russia wants Ukraine to be neutral. There is nothing they want or need. Occupying it would be a disaster as the western part of the country despises them as it is inhabited by rabid Stepan Bandera Nazis, Azov Battalion and Right Sektor.
To become a member of the NATO, you must not have any territorial disputes. Ukraine does. You must also gain a unanimous vote from all members. They do not have that. YET, Washington is de facto NATOizing Ukraine anyway. Great for the MIC, not so much for us taxpayers. Russia's troops are IN RUSSIA. It is Ukraine who has violated the Minsk Accord and placed half their army (125K troops) at the contact line. It was Zelensky who last April, threatened that he was going to take back Crimea. Moscow moved troops and he shit his pants. Maybe if we quit escalating this mess thousands of miles from our border (1 ocean and 3 seas away), peace might just breakout yet. Lockheed and Raytheon would hate it.
What if the Russians invaded Syria without the invitation of the UN recognized sovereign government and started stealing their natural resources.I asked you how the question was relevant, I don't give a shit about your question because it is just deflecting from the issue. But then you attempt to deflect even farther by your disertation straight from the Department of Russian Propaganda that attempts to explain how bombing somebody is the same as Russian troops literally taking over Crimea and incorporating it into their own territory. Just because the US has helped countries to not be forced to genuflect to Russia doesn't make that the United States "annexing" them.
So the US is stealing natural resources now?What if the Russians invaded Syria without the invitation of the UN recognized sovereign government and started stealing their natural resources.
Condemnation would follow from civilized nations, right?
You're a fugging idiot! I answered your question in spades. Not the version you're accustomed to from the back of a box of Cap'n Crunch. Nor do I read Politico like you:I asked you how the question was relevant, I don't give a shit about your question because it is just deflecting from the issue. But then you attempt to deflect even farther by your disertation straight from the Department of Russian Propaganda that attempts to explain how bombing somebody is the same as Russian troops literally taking over Crimea and incorporating it into their own territory.

You fugging dunce cap wearing schmuck. Trump boasted about it often. Just end your life now.So the US is stealing natural resources now?

I would love to see the Kurds get an independent Kurdistan, but with Syria, Iraq, Turkey, etc, against them, I don't ever see how it's feasible. Israel/Palestine x³.Shouldn’t we let the Kurds vote on whether they want to be part of Syria?
And Putin stabbed him in the back and said they were unaware of such an agreement.It appears Macron and Putin have a deal for Russia to pull back troops. I can't wait for Jenn and Joe to explain how that was happening while Joe and Olaf were plotting sanctions.
I guess this is why they have the Kuril Islands, a buffer from unwanted and uninvited guests.So you’d be cool with the Kaliningrad and the Kuril Islands going back to their traditional owners if Russia was run by an autocrat without free and fair elections, where he imprisons his critics and murders journalists? Kaliningrad was Prussian for longer than Crimea was Russian. Russia took the Kuril Islands after opportunistically declaring war on Japan at the end of WW2. Why not let them vote on it?
The Kuril islands are north east of Japan and part of Russia.An American submarine entered Russian territorial waters in the Kuriles region, and special means were used against it, the Ministry of Defense said.
"On February 12, 2022, at 10:40 Moscow time, a U.S. Navy submarine of the Virginia type was discovered in the area of the planned exercise of the Pacific Fleet forces in the territorial waters of the Russian Federation near Urup Island of the Kuril Ridge," the agency said.
The crew of the submarine was given a message in Russian and English via underwater communication: "You are in the territorial waters of Russia. Surface immediately!"
The foreign warship ignored the demand.
"In accordance with the guidelines for the protection of the state border of the Russian Federation in the underwater environment, the crew of the Pacific Fleet frigate Marshal Shaposhnikov used appropriate means," the message says.
The American submarine used a self-propelled simulator to double the target on radar and acoustic control means and left Russian territorial waters at maximum speed.
A detachment of ships of the Pacific Fleet continues exercises and controls the underwater environment to prevent violation of the state border.
In connection with the incident, the Defense Ministry called the military attache at the US Embassy in Moscow.
"we"? Is there a spot on earth that is not ours?Shouldn’t we let the Kurds vote on whether they want to be part of Syria?
