All I'm saying is that they have legitimate national concerns here. There are distinct parallels to the Soviets trying to put missiles in Cuba. I don't have to be a big fan of Putin to recognize this.
Interestingly, at least I am making arguments. The media narrative of Putin simply being crazy is deeply unserious.
But if Russia is the bad actor here for invading a neighboring country that was attacking ethnic Russians in their territory and was flirting with joining a specific international coalition that was anti-Russian, what does that make the United States with all of our foreign adventurism?
