Do you live in St. Petersburg? Here is an article from 2014 which refutes what you are saying. Don't fall for Russian propaganda.
"LUHANSK, Ukraine -- Dozens of pro-Russian armed men holding the Security Service of Ukraine headquarters don't put down their Kalashnikovs, even in the dining room. Since April 6, when the gunmen seized the government building, they and their hundreds of their supporters in a tent camp outside say they are ready for a police attack at any moment."
"A 48-hour ultimatum came and went from Arsen Avakov, the nation's top cop, who threatened the separatist militants with force if they don’t hand over their weapons and vacate the SBU building. But the insurgents, who call themselves Army of the Southeast, vow not to surrender until their demands are met."
Do you think “dozens of armed men” constitute insurgency even though there are no calls to secession so far? Does it justify moving the army in and killing hundreds of people? How many armed men were on Maidan and why was it okay, but not okay in Donbas?
I totally agree with you on not wasting American lives on another quagmire. Puppet Boy's masters want a foreign conflict to distract from their domestic war on us. When the failures are non-stop with no attempts to correct them it's not incompetence - it's intentional.
They're about to pass a national anti-lynching law. I wish they'd hold off on that until this regime of traitorous SOBs dance on air.
