      Obviously, because being the target of a genocide 80 years ago gives you a free pass to do whatever you want forever. Russia’s problem is that they’ve never been hit with a genocide themselves, so they don’t get a free pass. /S

        Haven’t they hit themselves with genocides about half a dozen times or so in their history…?

        “And then things got worse” and all that…

        Or do you only get a free pass if the genocide wasn’t self inflicted…?

          They ironically got hit with a genocide from the same people who did it to the Jews. Twenty-seven million dead at the hands of the nazis.
