What - you don’t think Iraq, Libya, Somalia and Afghanistan didn’t work out satisfactorily?/s
If it was just ONE disaster I could maybe think about taking their advice but it’s just been one huge mess after another. I figured neocons were on their way out but judging from Ukraine Hype it seems Americans haven’t learned a single thing in 30 years
Iraq, Afghanistan, etc. have not worked out well whether the people in charge were Republicans or Democrats. These places are mixtures of tribal, ethnic, and religious groups that were cobbled together by European colonialists who believed in the principal of “divide and rule.” Fortunatly, except for the Donbas area, Ukraine does not have that problem and seems rather universally united against Putin’s war. I suspect the outcome will be different for that reason. Many people in eastern Ukraine who were ambivalent before have declared solidly on the side of “Putin go home.” And they have been putting their lives on the line therefore.
