America is policeman of the world. When Russia invaded Crimea, it was
to annex it. When the US invaded Iraq, it was for benevolent reasons
- to save millions of people from WMDs. It was never to annex Iraq.
I don't disagree with what you say. However, even justifiable events can contribute to the general escalating trend, or be the final precipitating event.
It's like the Los Angeles riots after the Rodney King incident - I wouldn't say we could blame the police for the riots, but one can still say it was the police action against King that precipitated the riots.
