    Oh my bad, it was ristoril_zip that was justifying NATO in Yugoslavia, you just kept talking about whataboutism.

    Rational analysis, where you are incapable of addressing any wrong doing of the one person that declared an offensive war? Please attack me personally instead of acknowledging that maybe it is not so good to march into your neighbors territory and bomb their cities. But you do you. I’m sure you have your reasons.

    Yes, rational analysis as outlined by one of the most eminent geopolitcal researches in US https://mearsheimer.substack.com/p/who-caused-the-ukraine-war

    Using your logic, Mearsheimer must be a Russian propagandist. I’m sure you have your reasons for spreading simplistic narratives about the war that ignore the actual reasons behind it.

      I see, it happens, apology accepted :)

      Well since you love fallacies so much I will overlook your appeal to authority and just quote the guy, who ever the heck he is.

      This is not to deny, of course, that Russia invaded Ukraine and started the war.

      So yeah. What else did I claim when I said that Putin is directly responsible for the war?

        I’m not making any appeal to authority. I’m providing you with well argued and sourced explanation of what actually happened. Notice how you did not address any of the points being made in the article.

        So yeah. What else did I claim when I said that Putin is directly responsible for the war?

        Nice cherry picking there because that’s not really the point that the article is making is it?
