(57,314 posts)The question I posed about what exactly he meant by the same thing was not to illicit a list of events covered in history textbooks but rather an explanation of what the poster meant by the exact same thing. A list does not accomplish that. Nor does it justify warmongering for Russia.
Most of your list is a matter of public record, and I have already discussed many of those interventions in this very thread. I really am not interested in taking lessons on Latin America in particular from people who have only just Googled something. One can easily draw up a similar list for Russia. All of this amounts to the "he did it first" excuse, the very thing I criticized in the post you responded to. And somehow you think giving more examples explains why it's okay to cheer lead on war on the Ukraine.
That you post your silly photo of Kissinger with Clinton only highlights how little you know about this issue. Kissinger has in fact warned about the expansion of NATO for some time and predicted that Russia would not respond well. Naturally you throw Clinton in there because if there is a chance to show how lacking she is in comparison to a real man like Putin, that can't be passed up. If only she had journalists and the political opposition killed and knew how to keep the gays in line, then she would earn the adoration of Putin's fan club.
