Yes. We were invaded after all.
The second.
And that's exactly what Russia is doing. Fighting against the Nazis in Ukraine who persecuted and killed the separatists in Donbas.
Do you rely on double standards? Fighting against Nazis is good only when America does it?
Ugh, why did I know this was coming. Hitler carried out the Holocaust. Italy formed a partnership and helped him. Fighting Nazis is great, as long as that's actually what's being done.
Russia is not fighting against Nazis. That's just Putin's propaganda. Russia created the conflict in Donbas and promoted the separatists, who were a tiny marginal group. Then Putin used them as justification for aggression.
The Axis powers were actually carrying out the Holocaust. Italy didn't just have some portion of the population who were Nazis or Nazi sympathizers. They officially were helping the official Nazi Regime of Hitler. Ukraine is a country like any other that has some people who are Nazis. Ukraine itself isn't Nazis. They are not controlled by Nazis. They are not carrying out a genocide or even moving toward it. They're much like America and many other countries right now. The far right, including Nazis, are gaining power.
You don't invade another country to fight Nazis who are not in any way official. If so, maybe America should invade Italy again:
