I think you think too highly of your response. Nothing offensive here — just a little inaccurate. As for Iraq and Afghanistan, I supported our attack of Afghanistan after 9/11 as a response to rooting out the Taliban. Yes, it was an emotional response and knowing that Afghanistan is somehow protected so that when “Empires” go there, they inevitably collapse for their “sin.” Nevertheless, I felt we needed to. Iraq was a crime and those who committed that crime are still free. One has a new heart and the other one is doing really nice paintings in his retirement. As for NATO being able to stop this war, that is just Moscow-based nonsense. I see your name is Lev which tells me you are probably from Russia and so probably a Putinist in some way. As for God, not sure but I am willing to bet that God doesn’t spend a lot of time in Russia. He is disgusted by the duplicitousness.
