And who's doing that, other than you? Russia's wars of conquest in Ukraine and Georgia are (like all wars of conquest) illegitimate. When the facts are simple, the enemies of truth depend on pretended complexities. And no crime is justified by who else is also doing it.
Sounds like sophism and strawman argumentation.
Are you saying I'm ignorant for questioning the majority narrative in the west which is: "We are the good and they are the bad."
Every geopolitical analysis and action justification by the west boils down to this backwater sentence.
Why did England send a destroyer with BBC journalists into known Russian territory in the black sea, the journalist explained it pretty clear in situ, they were there explicitly to provoke Russia. Boris Johnson when confronted with it said "umphump butth but they're the badd!"; well yeeees, that's a very convincing justification for trying to provoke an armed conflict with Russia indeed.
In Norway there was a political rhetoric about the "nice bombs" dropped on Libya, from Norway with love one might say. I on the other hand started calling our foreign minister a war criminal before the first bomb had time to fall on Libya. Afterwards bomber pilots have revealed that they were collectively sent on hundreds of sorties where their only mission statement was to find a target and strike it, it was up to the pilots to evaluate what a target was; many of the pilots got reprimanded for returning without having used much of their arsenal.
Medvedev was naïve enough not to veto the no fly zone over Libya, he was reprimanded by Putin for it when he got home to Russia, and it is likely the reason why he couldn't be the presidential candidate for the party again; gadhaffi was naïve enough to demobilize his entire air force respecting, and feeling protected by, the decisions of the UN, then Libya got bombed... so a UN no fly zone has now, by the action of the west, been redefined through precedence to a "bomb a nation" directive...
When nationals traveled from Norway, Britain, and so on to fight against Assad they were honored as our heroes, they had to be because they were fighting the "bad", later they were stamped as criminals and not allowed back into our countries. Very few remembered the mistake of branding them heroes when they left, I remember a Norwegian politician I will not nameshame who appeared on National television in full profile in front of the parliament shouting to the camera "we must bomb Assad now!" around the early time of the civil war over there. Around the same time Putin wrote a plea to the American people in the New York times, a plea not to push for regime change in Syria, not to support extremists or meddle militarily.
The west has destabilized and broken so many countries, and is still at it in full vigor against several, that it's ridiculous.
US use torture extensively, it's ok because they are definitely the good, and they are probably (not like there's much evidence needed to end up in American torture chambers) doing it to the bad.
I could go on and on about how our narrative is twisted to the core, deeply paranoid, and unbelievably irrational, but here's my point and real response to Yudi.
I study this mainstream narrative about "angels" (us) and "demons" (them), I do not dismiss it as fantasy that should not be taken seriously, I know the majority in the victorious nations, the dominant west, believes it, and therefore I cannot dismiss it; and I've never found a single thread in it that made it in any way credible to me, so yes, I will question it, and you may call me ignorant for doing so.
Russia is by far the more respectful, trustworthy, reasonable, predictable, and legitimate actor on the world stage when compared to the schizophrenic idiocracy of the west that lash out like a big angry child against the rest of the world.
The US break international laws as a favourite pastime sport, brags and takes pride in it usually, Russia does it occasionally and never admits it as if it was something shameful.
That is my humble opinion, that the west is by far the most bloodthirsty barbarian-like warlord on the map.
Luckily the American Hegemony seems to be crumbling, though it is worrying too, because an empire rarely fall quietly.
