If you were to pull Saddam's pants down on his ass there was a USDA stamp and a made in the US stamp. We didn't seem to mind when he was gassing the Kurds with gas we had given him, We in fact run interference for him when the deed was reported in the world news. What was he doing now that he was not doing then? The truth of the meter is that the US needed a fall guy and Saddam was a convenient soft target. The US only invades soft targets. With the additional benefit of many in the US getting very wealthy. What do you think happen to all those billions that were unaccounted for? On the subject of Ukraine before the war Ukraine was considered to be one of the most corrupt countries, then we are to believe that after the invasion they became angels at the beginning of the war? I wonder how many in Ukraine have become fantastically rich from the US? How many more millions Zelenski has in his secret offshore accounts? Totally agree. All this lies about WMDs sent by the Pentagon to build support for a totally illegal war. You cannot legally invade a nation because the leaders are anti-US. If you allow this line of reasoning, why is it wrong for Russia to invade Ukraine that has anti-Russian leaders?

Because of American exceptionalism. We think that the axiom of "what's good for the goose is good for the gander" does not apply to the US.

You've answered your own question by inferring that this line of reasoning is irrational. Ukraine is not Iraq and Zelensky is not Saddam. It's as simple as that.

Bush, Cheney and the rest of that conspiracy should tried in some court for that. But knocking off a war criminal is always ok. And don't have to invade a country for that task.

For you and the Beach guy on here,do yourself a favor and check out how many billions of dollars are lost or unaccounted for in the US military . The money send to the Ukraine is only a fraction of that. Kick out Mike Johnson and get back to work,this guy is blocking everything in order to try and make Joe Biden look bad.

High enough so airplanes can not fly over it? Oh Wait,they can also get around it. Did the Mexicans send any money to pay for the wall yet? I just can't believe the mindset of Republicans.

A Wall built by the Army Corps of Engineers from the Pacific to the Gulf high enough to stop the caravans. That would also be patrolled by the Coast Guard at both ends.Plenty of money to pay for it by discontinuing this cash outflow to Ukraine. Every liberal always has all these "reasons" why the WALL won't work. Brainwashed, speak for yourself. I don't need Trump or any one else to see this Southern border invasion/disaster.

No foreign power has ever succeed in that country, and the west were stupid for thinking they could. They should have gone in and destroyed the taliban, then got out of it. More fools us for going along with it. Seems some never learn from history. Twenty years, many lives and billions of $ wasted for nothing.
