Critics point to the Russian "occupation" of Crimea as evidence that no fair vote could have taken place. Where were these people when an election held in an Iraq occupied by U.S. troops was called a "triumph of democracy"?


Iraq didn't vote to join the United states. This is a bad comparison.

If Crimea wants to join Russia, fine. But it is hard to get an hones opinion when they are being occupied by Russia.

Granted, however, considering they were voting for their highest office, and we've shown we have no qualms with interfering in the leadership of other nations, the comparison isn't as bad as it would initially seem.
