As other people have said in this thread, Crimea, and Ukraine is a 2 sided issue. The reason Russia invaded, was because the USA bought the leaders. It's documented. Plus, the side the USA ended up supporting, weren't exactly "saints". They wore Nazi Insignia on their uniforms. Far right, is an understatement.

You could argue that the USA bought Ukraine, because the Russians were trying to do the same, and it'd be true. That's why it's a two sided issue.

The USA doesn't torture gays. But the war in Iraq has resulted in between 500k-1 million casualties. And it's common knowledge(whether in Russia, or USA), that Bush lied PUBLICLY about the reasons for the war. Not only did Bush Falsely(and knowing it was false) connect Al Quaeda and Iraq on numerous occasions, in press conferences(which are recorded). He also claimed they had "nuclear weapons". Guess who gave the intelligence for the idea Iraq had Nuclear Weapons? Paul Manafort's firm. So when I say "two sides to the same coin". I mean just that.

Paul Manafort, and the like support both sides. We can go back further if you want, to when the USA put Japanese people into concentration camps. Or how FDR, and the USA almost got charged with crimes against humanity in international court, for being one of the last industrialized nations in the world to federally outlaw the lynching of blacks(FDR refused... because he didn't want to lose the precious racist vote in the south).

In terms of deaths, Vietnam and Iraq were far more destructive than anything Russia has done, since WW2. I guess it depends on your personal morality. I value the lives of millions of people, more than the persecution of a few gay people. To each their own.
