According to the Costs of War Project at Brown University, the post-9/11 wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Yemen, and other regions have resulted in an estimated 4.5 to 4.7 million total deaths, including both direct and indirect casualties, with indirect deaths accounting for the majority

Yeah, I know that figure. It's absurd. It counts extremist Muslim Iraqis massacring Iraqis as the fault of the US.

Okay, maybe it is off by a few million, how many deaths does it take for middle easterners to rightfully attack anything related to the US economy then? Or does that only apply to Russia?

Those deaths just aren't the fault of the US, and the US had valid reasons to go to war.

Middle easterners should stop blaming others for their shitry societies.

Ukraine meanwhile is an awesome society, threatened by psychopaths.

How to determine if a military has the right to invade another country.

Is it an awesome country? If not, invade away.

Definitely not the rationale of a psychopath.
