And where did this man hide himself when America invaded Iraq and Afghanisthan despite UN's strong disapproval? It will be good for the world if Russia gets stronger and stronger and become the then Soviet Union to counter America's big-brother attitude. Keeping aside the debate on Saddam Hussein whether he was good or bad, from Iraqis point of view, were they at least not peaceful even if a section of the society were not happy? Not everyone knows that Iraq "was" the only Islamic country that gave full rights to the women. Women were educated, they became doctors, they became professionals. But post-Invasion, Iraq has gone back to stone age era. If America could invade Iraq and wade a pre-emptive war against an innocent Iraq, why not Russia punish Ukraine to help its own Russian people there? How can UN have two different yardsticks to measure two different countries? Or, UN must come out boldly and say that it's nothing but an extended arm of America. Then there won't be any issue. Or best, dissolve it. At least Asian countries and Middle-east countries must back Putin firmly now and support him and his people and nullify all the sanctions handed out by the West.

W.W.III needed.

These guys couldn't handle the Taliban, they think now they can handle Russia?

The political drama played by the western world against Russia back fired.. Russia is All mighty and strong now...Folks it is just rhetoric, empty threats. Just loud in threats and very weak in their action. NATO was built to counteract the Soviet Union in its day and time. At this point there is no threat coming from the Soviet Union, because there is no Soviet Union anymore. And where there was the Soviet Union once, there is now a number of countries, among them the new and democratic Russia.

What is NATO. This is a paper tiger, made by USA, made for USA, We saw the power of this power tiger in Afghanistan. Now dont adventure in Ukraine. There is no road to go back from there.
