What? Even if so, you punish them for not joining by threatening them and expanding military alliance on their borders?

Didn't Russia have it's chance to join NATO?
Imam Ali (a) called similar. Fighting is needed sometimes. Putin had no choice. You pushed the cat in a corner and expected nothing will happen. That's called blinded by arrogance.
The U.S. was the spearhead, but multiple NATO states sent troops to Iraq as well based on the pretexts the U.S. fabricated about Iraq.
Putin has no excuse for the current invasion. NATO's questionable motives and record of warmongering doesn't change this.
Yes, there could very well be a double standard at work here. Some people believe that pointing this out means that one approves of Putin's invasion of Ukraine, which nothing could be further from the truth.
I'm reminded of this from George Carlin
It does, it means you make false pretexts for war and can lie to your people and justify war. Why should Russia trust you won't do the same with Ukraine. What else was the purpose of the Coup you guys organized.

You need to 1) stop addressing people as if they were the same as their governments, and 2) stop addressing me as an American/European, since I've already said I'm a Arab.
Putin is the only non-racist/fascist white leader I know. He helped Iran and Hezbollah and Syrian army stop ISIS while Obama created it.
To me, I can't ever trust US. They have proven themselves to be deceivers, liars, and havoc creators. I don't want them to be the power in the world.
They could've made the world better place, but all their propaganda was oriented towards Iran and we are purely evil because we oppose Israel. If it was theocracy and human right issues they would not be in bed with dictators like Saudi Arabia.
Time for the empire of hypocrisy to be stood up to.
Exactly.
Let us not forget how peaceful and tranquil Libya and Syria were, before NATO destroyed them.
It really amazes me how doublestabdardism has been normalized in the United States.
Uh, Ukraine didn't invade Russia.
Syria was mainly destroyed by the army of Assad, another murderous dictator whom Putin supports politically and militarily.
Stopped ISIS you mean.
So why not just not join Nato and keep the peace? This is like a person walking up to a person and saying I will get my gang to hit you and your family - what you can do? Perhaps the person will do nothing, perhaps the person will choose to protect his family. Perhaps all bets was Putin had no courage?
No, ISIS and other extremist groups are far from stopped. Military adventurism like what Putin and the U.S. have practiced facilitates the emergence of such militant groups.
An example is Syria. Still people believe Assad and Hezbollah and Iran in the wrong, when, they had no choice but to fight. Shiites would all be gone in Syria and Lebanon, genocide.
So what if they want to join NATO?--they evidently needed to because LOOK! they got invaded by Russia.
The most evil president of US ever to exist but he get's away with it for being black.Before Obama the Mediterranean was at peace.
