It was still the same premise though, America, and Europe, did not want to engage in another world war and Hitler took advantage of that and played both. Not removing Saddam would have been worse and cost more.
Iran has been emboldened by the overthrow of Saddam Hussein. Iraq is now a Sharia theocracy that treats women like crap. The USA has had enough worthless wars. If you think we should go to war, go enlist today.
From Fox News: http://www.foxnews.mobi/quickPage.h...e_html_page_22995_content_102696128_pageNum_1 The State Duma, the lower chamber of parliament, on Tuesday unanimously passed a resolution condemning sanctions which targeted Russian officials, including members of the chamber. The chamber urged President Obama to extend the sanctions to all the 353 deputies who had voted for the resolution. Eighty-eight deputies left the house before the vote.
Americans became staunch isolationist after WW1. 5 years or 20 years, it doesn't matter. We don't always have the luxury of picking which war we get into or not. Hindsight would be a wonderful thing when it comes to wars, but unfortunately we don't have that ability.
i don't give two (*)(*)(*)(*)s about Crimea. we have no mutual defense treaty with Ukraine. you care so much? go enlist.
Are y'all willing to have Americans die to fight a war where America is against free people voting on their future? Are y'all willing to shed blood of American boys for the sake of battling against democracy? How dare they have a vote. The people have no right to vote on their lives. Let's kill them. Really?
Our best bet is to stay out of it. Obama's halfhearted sanctions make him look like an ass. Not that it matters to the right. They were prepared to criticize him no matter what he did.
Austria wanted to be annexed. But no, we should not have let Hitler take anything past the Sudetenland. We should have drawn the line there. That was an error. by the way, when do you plan on enlisting?
the referendum didn't include an option to stay part of Ukraine. and the vote was held during foreign military occupation by the country that would benefit most from the vote. that's why its a sham.
Than why isn't America calling for a new election instead of sanctions? What was on the ballots in Ukraine? Oh what it was a rebellion. A violent murderous rebellion. And America praised them. Where is America demanding elections for the Ukrainian government? Oh wait Obama installed who he wanted into this new violent government.
And we upheld a violent rebellion that will benefit the American country. We turned a blind eye to the murders of the cops. Rejoiced in the violent overthrow of an elected government. Only to install the government they america wanted. Besides. If they had an option, what do you think the vote would have been? I'm willing to bet the same out come!
When the average Russians start feeling the effects of Putins actions we will see how long he laughs.
Then let have anther vote. Plain and simple. No need to make people suffer. Have a vote where everyone will admit is legal and binding. Problem solved.
The Russian Deputy prime minister isn't the only one laughing at Obama. The guy is a walking, talking joke.
