and that is why Joe Biden's corrupt son was in Ukraine....just read the RAND report!
Unlike the US public, Putin does remember what really happened in Iraq*, saw this happening on his own doorstep and indeed decided to beat the Americans to it.
* Remember Dick Cheney's WMDs.... A war criminal who doesn't give a damn about lives, truth and just grabs by force what he wants: Iraqi oil. Enabled by hypocritical Western governments. My country included. Our "Christian Democrats" exchanged half a million Iraqi lives so that their man, Jaap de Hoop Scheffer, could become the Secretary General of NATO three months later. We live in that shame.
