There is a legitimate and an illegitimate use of military force. Supporting the Ukrainians in the defense of their country is not "war-mongering." It's *because* someone understands that, that a criticism of military adventurism such as that in Iraq and Afghanistan carries weight

The only legitimate use of United States military force is in the direct defense of the United States itself.

We can't ignore the purpose of NATO, which Russia knows very well is a deliberate threat to its own security interests. Nor can we ignore Zelensky's blind eye to 14,000 lives lost in the Donbas since 2014. And we know what a threat to leave the Budapest Memorandum actually means

This ain't hard get. US/NATO created this situation INTENSIONALLY. Russia responded in the SAME fashion as the US would, i.e., use force to control a neighboring threat. Antiwar position would oppose conflict in favor of brokered negotiations, not "give 'em weapons & soldiers"

Because it wouldn’t be supporting Ukrainians, it would be lending credibility to our military which has none.
