Oh, now I understand. Invading the country, which is about a member of NATO, even if this country invaded a neighbor country ( of course, respected members of NATO recognized this nearby country as a part of that tiny one and the opinion of that nearby country doesn't matter... In general, you understand... :D) is a crime.
Invading a country, which is not about a member of NATO (Afghanistan, Serbia, Iraq, Iran in a perspective), is an admiration-worthy act.
But I see a different dependence. Everything, what USA is doing - is correct. Everything what others countries are doing against USA interests - is awful.
Elena, that's a cop out and an easy way to avoid dealing with criticism of Russia in any constructive or meaningful way. While I can't speak for Lawmage, and at the threat of repeating myself yet again, no country is above my criticism. I criticize the US far more than I criticize Russia but in this case, Russia is well worthy of that criticism. It also doesn't go unnoticed that you've dodged many of Law's along with my comments is this thread and the one on Georgia.
My biggest question, which I asked both here and elsewhere, is why is Russia so afraid of NATO when nearly all of Europe, along with the US, embrace it?
