A lot of Russians lived in eastern Ukraine, I don't know enough about it to really go on about their history but it seems like that's a Russian problem and not really trying to fuck with us.

They only have 2 bases in Syria/Afghanistan and a naval base in Syria or some shit? They helped defeat Hitler in the second world war.

I don't think Russia is as bad as they spin it to us, but I could be wrong - I'd almost say they are on our side with this fight against islam and Putin was right about creating vacuums of power in the middle east.

I also agree with his point on the illegality of taking out Gaddafi with the help of drone strikes as the US implemented a no fly zone in Libya. I don't know this is irrelevant anyway.

This may not be accurate but I think there's more than we know about what was going on, and fucking around in Putin's backyard and having him do nothing would be unlikely.

Not sure how up to date that is but imagine the US government's position if it had Russian equivalent bases around it.

That is a joke about having US bases surrounding Russia and not the point you were making.

That's far from a joke, take out the funny caption.

That was pretty much the basis for the Cuban missile crisis.
