That's because none of those actually qualify as invasions

Afghanistan is an invasion due to NATO articles invo[lv/k]ement. It had to legally be called a war.
They also called it officially "war on terror".
Mason Wilson
invasion implies taking something.
when bush and obama went into the middle east, we didn't actually have an objective. we were just there to make money for defense contractors.
Zachary Gutierrez
Except that IS an invasion because they're using boots on the ground forces to forcefully take control over territory belonging to the internationally recognized government.
Compare this to Libya and Syria where they only stuck to providing air support or post 2014 Iraq where they were on the side of the government. Hold whatever opinion you want about these wars, but there's a reason as to why different terminology is used and why Afghanistan or 2003 Iraq are still called invasions.

internazi recognition is not a legal reason to establish a state
unlike y no... a referendum
Zachary Cox
You're right! Other laws have to be followed as well. But that's irrelevant here, because Ukraine isn't "establishing" a state, it already is one and has been for years, it's a part of the UN and everyone agrees it exists, even your own government.
Meanwhile, unless a region is under apartheid or a colony it is ILLEGAL for it to unilaterally declare independence, referendum or not.

Nigga you picked the wrong image for your general lol
But to humor it those first 3 are interventions against countries currently involved in unstable revolts/revolutions, and of which were not led by democratically elected officials, but by corrupt authoritarians.
The intention was also to go in, and then leave, not to carve the country up, and maintain some defensive barrier to satisfy our paranoia.

Face it. You guys are the country that cried wolf. You cried at every turn about feeling paranoid that everybody is against you, and threatening force at the slightest offense.
Don't be surprised when everybody is sick of your shit.

Not other laws. Its the only law.
What you try to invoke here is the law of the power. The law "do it or else". The genocide.

And? I'm not wrong. You guys are operating on pure paranoia, and the idea that you can bully your neighbors.
After the past 30 years Georgians, and Ukrainians hate Russia with a passion, and that's not going to change any time soon.

Shut the fuck up. Don't care what you're saying, it's poison when it comes from your maple-slick cock-socket.

No, I'm invoking the international law that we all follow. And putting down rebellions does not equal genocide.

There's a few of us who skirt that, and a couple that outright ignore it. Right now they're in the later part.
