I don’t need to explain why it should. I only need to explain why it’s no excuse for putin/russia to invade a country on it’s border, that is not a member of NATO, and has never threatened the russians.
The Ukraine even gave up the nukes on their territory, with guarantee’s of protection form the russians and Americans.
Putin/Russia is not threatened by NATO. It has never been a threat to Russia. Libya has nothing to do with it.
NATO prevents Russia from expanding it’s iron grip on the countries surrounding it, and putin wants those back in the soviet sphere. That’s it. All of it.
Putin is a KGB murderer and torturer, russian leader of the red factions in germany and italy that murder and maim. His grandfather was the cook for both lenin and stalin. It would be no surprise to anyone that reads about the man that he desires to rule the former Soviet Empire, by any means.
Putins problem is putin believed his own propaganda. The russians are a 3rd world military with nukes and are incapable of mounting a winning strategy on their own border. Thus we have what will soon be a year long war. Can the russians “win”? Of course. At what cost?
