In WW2 Germans, Italians, and Japanese were rounded up and imprisoned without trial, some were executed, many were imprisoned in actual prisons.
That is nothing new or unusual. Every country interned enemy aliens in WWII. As for executions, I couldn’t find any. Can you share a source?
Operation Pastorious. Eight sentenced to death. Six executed.
I was going to mention them. They were not resident in the US at the outbreak of war. They were saboteurs landed from U-Boats and not subject to the same rules as enemy aliens so they don’t count. Again, every nation executes spies and saboteurs in wartime.
Of course Russia invading its neighbors is not considered a provocation. It has been Russian actions that has made NATO membership necessary for its neighbors.
Also part of the Monroe Doctrine was to stay out of European affairs.
the Finns wanted to join NATO — but only after Putin invaded Ukraine.
Polls before February 2022 showed only about 10 to 15% of Finns supported joining NATO (the “far right” mainly). After February it jumped up and hit up to 75% wanted to join NATO.
This was purely due to Pooptin’s invasion of Ukraine.
How do you Russians do it?
I remember that video, it’s “Lady Pank” a very popular Polish band.
