The Economist: History Will Judge Vladimir Putin For Invading Ukraine by iezeiyida(m): 9:25am On Mar 03, 2022 |
Interesting! So, how will history judge George Bush and Tony Blair, for invading Iraq and killing Saddam Hussein and thousands of people of Iraq ![]() How will history judge our own Kenyan brother, Barack Obama, David Cameron and Sakozy, for invading and killing Mahmour Gaddafi ![]() How will history again, judge Obama (Syria) What about history judging the US, on Panama, during the reign of Manual Noriega ![]() These poor countries are still struggling to recover from the regime change wars imposed on them by America and their Western allies. According to the United Nations estimates, 360, 000 people died in Syria war, and another 5.7 million were turned to refugees. So, the lives of these innocent people didn't matter because the perpetrators of this illegal interventions, for selfish and greedy reasons, are above the law, or because the international laws doesn't apply to them? Except late Robert Mugabe, when Libya's Gaddafi were attacked by external, superior, Western forces, who fought with the brainwashed Libyan rebels, AU, EU, NATO, individuals, NGOs, human rights activists, world leaders, never condemned the actions of America and their Western family. Libya, a once prosperous country with impressive living standards, is now virtually a failed state, thanks to NATO destruction of the country. Iraq suffered the same fate; millions of innocent people, including children, died in the America/UK imposed war, a millitary invasion that had no UN authorisation. So, the intervention was illegal in the beginning. Will history judge them kindly as "a force for good in the world?'' When surviving Iraqi, Libyan, and Syrian children grow up, they will ask who killed their parents. When the West kill innocent people, they call it collateral damage; they falsely claim their intelligence failed them, and they brand it as unintended consequences of war. But when other powerful aggressors kill innocent people elsewhere, the West call them butchers. I don't in any way, justify killings of human being like me, I am only trying to get the records straight because it seems the man history, is an American or European - if history is a neutral guy, he will surely judge all of these folks fairly and equally. Conclusively, the Western people don't take responsibility for committing economical, political and millitary actrocious actions. They use sophisticated language to play down their responsibility of war crimes. So, which version of history will judgy Putin and spare the Western Europeans for the same atrocities? Maybe the version of history written by the Economist, and other Western media organisation. 1 Like |

![]() Two wrongs don't make a right.... US didn't invade their brothers but foreigners Putin and Zelensky must end this madness They speak similar language, with similar culture, they are Slavic brothers and former compatriots of solveit union This is like Ibos fighting with Ikwere and Anions neighbours, or Hausa fighting Kanuris ... In the end nobody wins |

DropsMic: There are better non combative ways to influence your neighbour Take Nigerians for example... We know fully well that our boders are porous and our neighbours can sabotage our national security.. Nigeria gives electricity to neighbours, we fund ECOWAS, we opened our economy to them, we invest heavily in banking and telecommunications in this country |

He who comes to equity must come with clean hands. Read well, I didn't justify killings of innocent people any where in the world by Putin or the Americans in my post. And let me tell you that a good leader, or even a best leader, must set examples that such, represents. Moreover, you are justifying the killings of innocent people by the US in the past by because of no relations in geographical region, race and religion.

Cubalabloo:Yes. But, it is a fortunate action for Putin because when he finally conquer Ukraine, Russia will be respected more |

Mooh247:Yes. That is true. But, the West lead by America, have done far more damages than Putin or any country, in the past and they were hailed as most powerful. Fom 1945 to now, America have intentionally caused or influenced 81 per cent of the regime change wars, and other wars, in the world for their own greedy interests? |
