    It’s kinda wild to claim that the US invaded Russia when they literally only sent one contigent of troops. That’s like saying Canada invaded Afghanistan.

        Ig technically, but it was really the US that invaded Afghanistan. Considering their allies that sent significantly smaller forces and did not make the decision to start the military activity as fellow invaders is disingenuous at best.

          In what way is it disingenuous to frame Canada sending thousands of soldiers to a foreign nation to carry out a war as an invasion?
