But obviously, comparing a nation of good people getting invaded by a nation of psychopaths invading them is absurd.
You might as well complain that police are "fueling hate" by arresting thieves. Which of course is a claim in western politics. By nutty psychopaths who are trying to equivocate good and evil.
