Russia invaded Ukraine. How does one square the logic that the war in Iraq was bad, because it was preemptive, but they support the war in Russia, which was even more preemptive, is good? Sorry, does not compute.

You either support a preemptive war or not. Someone who supports Russia's invasion, can't call someone a neocon for supporting the Iraq War, when they are just as much a neocon.

And more to the point, why does someone from the U.S. give extra privileges to a foreign country?

Sorry, I am confused. I am against the Russian invasion. I was pointing out that complaining about neocons on here (which seems to now be the majority view) is a curious development since most everyone supported the invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan.

I originally posted on this thread because we have someone who thinks that Russia is an economic and military dynamo and that all is great. Then that same person wants to tell us that they don't support Russia. That circle didn't square with me.
