Would you not feel threatened if you were Russia? Map of US military bases:

Imagine if China or Russia did that, and then started bombing random countries.

On mobile, apologies if it's not the best image

Lol yeah can you imagine?

What if Russia had military bases in other countries like Armenia, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Tajikistan, Ukraine, Central African Republic, Egypt, Eritrea, Madagascar, Mozambique or Sudan?

Imagine if they had bombing campaigns in random countries like Syria, Georgia, Libya, Central African Republic or Mali.

Also imagine what would happen if the US would bomb one of their own cities like Minneapolis or Tulsa Oklahoma so thoroughly that it would become known as one of the most destroyed cities in modern warfare

Don't get me wrong, the US is an imperialistic power hungry repressive country which imposes its will on plenty of smaller countries, but let's not pretend that Russia is better in any way, shape or form, they're just not as successful in exacting power outside of their sphere of influence.

Yeah, imagine if Russia started invading all its neighbors. What a wild hypothetical.

Hey ivan, tell your buddies to stop smoking near ammo depots and oil refineries.

Ehhhh, it was always just an excuse, just like all the other reasons that they invented. Nazis, NATO, will of the people, whatever bullshit he came up with, the real reason was always because there's was money to be made by owning their land.

Even historians in 1000 years will not comprehend this brilliant move by mr. president, in eyes of those uninitiated to the complex art of geopolitics it may seem like the dumbest blunder.
