Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) believes that Russia’s reasons for its invasion – and partial slaughter – of Ukraine could be admirable ones—even if he claims he doesn’t support it himself.
“You could argue the countries they’ve attacked were part of Russia,” Paul told Secretary of State Antony Blinken during a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing on Tuesday. Blinken blasted even the thought of it, saying it was the “fundamental right” of countries that bordered Russia to decide their own fate.
Paul decided the best course of action was to double down, pointing to some of the countries’ past history as Soviet states “since the 1920s.” “There is no justification for the invasion, I’m not saying that. But there are reasons for the invasion,” Paul said. Read more.
Thank you very much. Of course they had reason. But they had no right!
He’s got a good point. It’s the deep state that’s going all out to smother the truth. They want the narrative to remain intact: Putin – Evil. Zelensky- Saint.
It’s the exact opposite. Zelensky has committed genocide by butchering his own people, using propoganda, “retribution” as his excuse. The truth will come out. Biden is so stupid, he’s not capable of comprehending what Dr. Jill is blabbering about, let alone world events.
Russia wants to bring more growth against the west. Jewish interests are very mock to them.
This will be a place for more nuclear trash to be developed and the land will be exploited.
Graphic feelings. The rink they want is grub for vice. Russia has no milk for being.

What gives you the right to interfere with the minhag hamakom?
When the Soviet Union broke apart the Budapest Memorandum was an agreement that Ukraine would give up its nukes and Russia would respect Ukraine’s borders. Russia’s theft-by-force of Crimea in 2014 and its current mass murder terror campaign against Ukrainian civilians in a grab of Ukraine’s territory are both blatant violations of that treaty.
About a hundred years ago Germany similarly helped ignite World War 1 by violating a treaty it dismissed as “a scrap of paper”.
Using Putin’s logic, Britain can invade the United States, Turkey can invade most countries in the Middle East, Japan can invade Russia, and so on. Russia’s ostensible justification for its bloody invasion of a peaceful, unthreatening neighbor are lies, beginning to end, and don’t even deserve acknowledgement.
You said a real wise comment here. Thank you
All Rand is saying (and people are misunderstanding this), this invasion could’ve easily been avoided. We all knew what agitates Russia and we purposely did it anyway. He’s saying the US interest should be that Ukraine remains neutral and not pro-west. Stupid leaders just push their power without trying to get along with others…
He’s right.
Great story for the gullible sheeple, like posters above.
