Obama Paints Crimea Secession as Worse than Iraq War

With fully one Ukrainian soldier confirmed dead and several others wounded in myriad clashes, world leaders seem agreed that the Russian annexation of Crimea is the worst thing to happen within their collective memories. 
 
Then someone, likely just to bum everyone out, brought up Iraq.
 
Speaking in Brussels today, President Obama went on a lengthy diatribe about how the decade-long US occupation of Iraq, which left roughly a million people dead and the entire region awash in al-Qaeda factions, was nowhere near as bad a thing as Crimea.
 
Peggio di Namib robe da delirio, potrebbe avere pesanti ripercussioni sulla credibilita' di tutti i troll del presidente.
 
"America sought to work within the international system. We did not claim or annex Iraq's territory," Obama insisted, going on to praise Iraq as a "fully sovereign state" that "could make decisions about its own future."
 
Guerra da 1 milione di morti senza avallo ONU, preparata con le provette false di Powell, ridicolo.
 
Which is to say the US forced a puppet government into power before it left, despite Prime Minister Maliki losing the last election, and put in place an election system so crooked that even the Maliki-appointed election commission resigned en masse yesterday rather than take part in April's planned vote.
 
The US left Iraq, but the war did not, and even today the US is throwing military aid at the nation in ever-increasing numbers to fight off al-Qaeda, which has seized significant chunks of the country.
 
Obama went on to praise the "vigorous debate" which surrounded the US invasion of Iraq, which mostly centered on the Bush Administration lying about the "threat" until they invaded.
 
The Russian annexation of Crimea is indeed apples and oranges to the US occupation of Iraq, in that Russia acquired a small peninsula populated mostly by ethnic Russians with few casualties involved, and the US obliterated the nation of Iraq in the bloodiest war of the current century, killing enormous numbers of people and accomplishing virtually nothing before meandering off in search of new dragons to slay.
 
Vedete le sbronze di politici idioti che conseguenze possono avere?
Se Crushev andava a trombare quella sera.
 

 
Poi si inventa un referendum in Kossovo mai avvenuto.
 
Siamo alle menzogne palesi.
 
 
President Obama's recent speeches condemning the Crimean secession as much worse than anything else in recent history have raised a lot of eyebrows, as yesterday he bizarrely tried to portray the bloody US occupation of Iraq as much less of a deal.
 
But Obama appears now to be inventing events wholesale to try to rebrand them, claiming that in contrast to the Crimean secession, Kosovo seceded from Serbia after a referendum organized "in careful cooperation with the United Nations."
 
While Iraq may have been a bizarrely skewed interpretation of what happened, Kosovo is just a flat out lie. There was no referendum, UN organized or not, at any point around the 1999 NATO invasion of Kosovo through the 2001 imposition of secession and the 2008 declaration of independence.
 
Kosovo's provincial assembly did hold a referendum on the possibility of secession in 1991, but it was not done with UN backing, nor did the US or anyone else even recognize the result. Albania was the long state to recognize the vote, and it was never cited as justification in NATO's 1999 war.
 
The only other referendum to take place in Kosovo came in 2012, under Obama's watch. In that vote, 99% of Kosovar Serbs in several northern districts voted against being part of an independent Kosovo. As with the 1991 vote, the US rejected its validity.
