The intervention took place before the punitive action to seize Donetsk and Luhansk by force - this has already been confirmed
Sorry, but I call bollox on that. Do you seriously want us to believe that Ukraine would start an invasion of separatist republics with 200,000 Russian soldiers stationed all around their borders? Do you remember how you lied that they were just on maneouvers or stationed permanently? How your ministers and diplomats lied through their teeth? When you lie once, twice and for the 100th time, then comes the moment when people stop believing in anything you say.
the boundary between good and evil is so clearly drawn
Here I can agree with you 100%. Rarely in history has the boundary between good and evil been drawn so clearly.
And now we have to get explanations what dozens of American biological laboratories in Eastern Europe and Central Asia were actually doing.
This is actually a valid question. Americans themselves admitted that such laboratories exist. It would be nice if we heard some honest information about them.
A couple of questions for you, Velund, coming from a person who once had a lot of sympathy and warm feelings for Russia, before being totally disillusioned: why, with all the riches, high level of exact science (Russian mathematicians and physicians are one of the best in the world) and engineering, vast territory with all sorts of natural resources imaginable, Russia cannot be a
stable, friendly and relatively wealthy country (I don't mean those oligarch bastards, but ordinary Russians, not only in Moscow or St. Petersburg)? Why on earth cannot you concentrate on 17,130,000 km² of your own territory and try to make it look more like 41,285 km2 of Swiss territory, for example? Don't you think that you have enough work for 1000 years on your own land without invading others?
You are safe (because of all your nukes), so you could work honestly and hard to make your country a better and richer place in peace and quiet why didn't you take the chance to do it? Why on earth do you have to insist on playing this silly imperial game that you can never win? Why do you tolerate the thieving "elites" who treat ordinary Russians as
bydło and cannon fodder? Why don't you want to live like normal people? Is this some sort of collective masochism? I just don't get it.
I would really like some honest answers to those questions. I wouldn't hold my breath though...
P.S. And I would really love an answer that wouldn't include the eternal and immortal "America does it too" argument. :-/
