Or, alternately, and I'm just spitballing randomly here... Russians could gtfo of Ukraine and go home?
The US occupying 1/3 of Syria and Iraq for far longer is ok though.
In comparison? Yeah.
Russia, the dumb drunk fucks they are, even tried to rush our forces, because they were outnumbered 50:1 but apparently Russians can't do math and don't understand you don't fuck with Americans unless you're 5000:1, or at least don't try to charge joint forces with a bunch of morons running across the desert.

We also didn't commit a proper genocide on them Ala the Holodomor.
I guess it just sucks to be trash.
Yep, the US is so powerful that is why Assad still in power and all regions with large population are kept away from US. Holodomor is highly disputed if is man-made. Specially when you consider Russia had a equally devastated famine at the very same time (Soviet famine of 1930–1933) and another a decade prior (Russian famine of 1921–1922). But of course, we only care about the mostly Ukraine affected one Holodomor one (1932-33) because it fits our anti-Russian agenda. As a rural guy, let me tell you, ironically, when famine strikes, the ones who suffer the most are farmers (a long story to explain here why)... Ukraine and parts of non industrialized Soviet Union all suffered famine and millions upon millions died, no distinctions if they spoke Russian or Ukrainian.
Jesus, the oil companies would love you!
