In 2014, Putin secured his warm-water port (which he leased from Ukraine before the US overthrew that government) at the cost of SIX LIVES and then somehow resisted his secret desire to genocide Ukraine and Europe and to march on Kansas.
Then a few years later he became "literally Hitler" (if you trust the US military-media complex) and was going to destroy democracy on the entire globe. So we had to fight him, costing HALF A MILLION LIVES, rather than just removing all the missiles we had placed in Ukraine.
All we have to show for it is a much weakened dollar that the world is dumping as quickly as possible, because we decided freezing Russian assets was a smart way to punish Putin. Also, maybe a few more people are woken up to the fact that the US State Dept and the Corporate Press are not to be trusted.
