Aren't we?

russians have worked very hard to deserve such attitude. let’s not swap the cause and effect.

btw sending ballistic rockets to bomb Kiev’s population is hardly justified by anything anyway.

No we are not. And this absurd fake news that the west is responsible needs to end.

Well, I asked because in the face of similar events, I never remember a reaction as strong as the one that we are adopting against Russia. So I think it indeed has something to do with Russia, and not with the event itself.

Similar events? Please specify at least a couple of the similar events you have in mind…

2003 invasion of Iraq happened largely in the desert. It was also done relatively quickly and didn't level huge portions of the cities like is being done in Ukraine right now. This is what Russia is doing to several Ukrainian cities right now: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Grozny,_the_capital_city_...
