As I stated, our foreign policy has been far from perfect. Still what Putin did was an act of war. He has no legitimate claim of self-defense, and the tragic affair would not have happened if he would have stayed home.

While Putin may have been hoping to copy that model of puppet installation, our own history of that has resulted in more burdens than successes.

Freedom cannot be given to a people. It must be earned by those people, and the price can only be paid in blood.

I agree. We are not perfect, but we love peace, and freedom and democracy and so that covers a lot of sins. Putin is a thug. There is no justification for what he does. If Zelinsky makes common cause with our deepstate to sell out his country and become a proxy to push globalism in Europe, that is his freedom to do so. If he chooses to launder our aid back to our politicians, that is his affair. That is absolutely none of Putin's business and he needs to stay out of it.
