@mekkaokereke @professorhank agree completely. I think I misunderstood you.

I've witnessed whataboutery used on me about Ukraine, and the purpose & technique was to attempt to justify Russia by using the US's record to claim that there are no (and by implication, can be no) good actors, so to point out & resist bad behaviour is doomed to failure & a waste of time.

The big difference is that the Iraq war is over. Nothing can make it better or worse. Russia's crimes are happening now.
