Re: U.S.: Putin's Peace Proposal for Ukraine is Nothing But 'Occupation Plan'
Cuba WAS forced during an occupation to "lease" Gitmo, period. I am not twisting logic here. What was good for the goose should be good for the gander, right? If not.. US should be closing a **** ton of bases overseas. You know bases in countries the US fights some war. You know the bases in Korea, Japan, Italy, and Germany.. US never annexes land my ass.
Btw, don't confuse understanding a position with support of an action. I understand why Russia needed to annex Crimea. Just as I understand why EU and NATO need to keep enlarging. I find both actions to be deplorable but again I find both sides to be a bunch of ass hats who want to stay in control in the 21st century instead of letting their "empires" decline or want to unseat the old guard just as the US kicked the UK of it's perch a little under a century ago.
I know the history of Guantanamo and it changes nothing, the twisted logic used by those who support Putin`s aggresion could easily be applied to the USA invading and annexing Cuba, there is no difference.
