This was in the excerpt.
“The growing crisis in the small island nation of Grenada, a former British territory off the coast of Venezuela, occurred after a group of Caribbean nations appealed for U.S. help in what they feared would be a region-defining incident following interference from communist Cuba and other Soviet-influenced actors.”
Do you think that Ukraine, Poland and the countries that thanks to Reagan had escaped Russia are begging for Russia to rescue them or begging for help to fight off Russia?
Even Sweden and Finland begged for protection from the Russian empire after seeing Ukraine invaded.
Oh. I get it.
As long as someone else begs that sovereign nation to attack, it's perfectly okay to bomb, invade, and regime change that sovereign nation.
I guess that ignores the request from the Donbas region of Ukie to have the Russians save them from the daily shelling from 2014 on that killed so many of their citizens.
Where is that written into the "Rules-based-order? I must have missed that part.
