Dont know about Vietnam as these were events before my time and didnt really read much into it, but regarding Afghanistan and Iraq: these were evil countries, led by evil people, countries who were bases for terrorists, also where local people were suffering, we had to try to liberate at that time.
We had no plans to extend our countries to these countries.

Hot take?

The SIMS games found with the obviously planted evidence for Ukrainian nazis… they were supposed to be SIM cards. 3 SIM cards. 3 sims. Lmfao

You should take a photo of all your comments and bring it to the USA embassy and apply for a Green Card, pretty sure they will give you one .

Note that his list speciifically did NOT mention the US or the UK. Also note that in all these wars, Western countries did not try to outright conquer foreign places to subjugate them and add them to their empire. The West actually spent billions upon billions on nation building efforts in Iraq and Afghanistan. Has Russia ever spent money in places they conquered in an effort to improve their living conditions, rather than just stealing their industry, resources and cultural assets?

Why do you need to conquer when you can subjugate their government with your political ideology.

Oh, it looks so familiar. Evil country full of neonazies, led by evil and corrupted people, not to mention biological warfare labs. And gas. We had to try to liberate them and save our people in Donbass.

Strange how countries all around the world are very willing to adopt something akin to Western democracy and capitalism, while Russia always needs to apply sheer force and massive repression to get anyone to adopt their shitty system, isn't it?

Did it work?

Second Bold, you mean the US?

There was also a book, which was signed with "unreadable signature". These guys literaly wrote text "unreadable signature" instead of making one.
