There’s something funny going on and there was something funny going on when this all started a few months back in Kiev.
The Olympics were a time when Russia was putting on a show for the world in Sochi. Russia wanted to look good in the eyes of the world and the notion they would do something to look bad makes absolutely no sense.
There should have been no shooting at anti-Russian protestors that week by the then pro-Russian government.
Any action against the protests would have come after the Olympics.
The events that have led us to where we are now make no sense and I suspect outside influences helped to create this situation.
Russia invaded Georgia while Putin was hobnobbing in the audience stands with Bush during the last Olympics. People conveniently forget that was really caused the protests to escalate were the mass shootings done by the Yanukovych regime.
I think you are on to something. Russia was busy with the Olympics. Good time for someone else to stir up trouble.
....”The Olympics were a time when Russia was putting on a show for the world in Sochi. Russia wanted to look good in the eyes of the world and the notion they would do something to look bad makes absolutely no sense”......
But it was a time when the Eu/Nato/Us could take advantage of this...and go for the Gold of toppling Kiev. Russia was otherwise occupied so they thought.
I still stand on the fact those now in Government in Kiev aren’t about to let anything stand in their way of maintaining the power they have currently secured. Which is why they soon stated they would not go further with the EU/NAto/US plan....
These characters will create any discord to remain in place in order to delay any election until they have consolidated their power. IMO this is what is happening in Kiev...and that would include creating armed incidents to keep the nation unstable.
When you look at what this governing body is doing, not saying, but doing the picture becomes clear....

The problem is Obama and the EU realized Yanukovich was a Russia puppet. They figured that the guy would side with the Russians in any upcoming elections. So they sent over Victoria Nuland and some rabble rousers, to foment a coup and oust Yanukovich while the Olympics were going figuring Putin would do little because he was wanting to make a show of the Olympics. Of course it is typical that the US/EU sidle up to any parties in the area to achieve their goals. They really care not if the people are incompetent boobs as long as they do the job and allow them to install a US/EU puppet. I think that the EU didn’t like who the US chose to run Ukraine and protested. Mabe that is what prompted Nuland to say in a secret call that was recorded “fu*k the EU”
Putin knew what they were up to and the rest is well known. Thing is, nobody knows what would have happened, that is would Putin do what he has done if it weren’t for the coup? Chances are he might have at sometime time, but who knows at this point? He may have been happy with a sympathetic government rather than taking Crimea and a probable threat to Ukraine now.
What difference at this point does it really make? I bet Hillary would say that. Ya think?
Its a fact the obama administration helped set the collapse of the ukraine in motion. No doubt those blackwater or whatever they are calling themselves are heavily involved in causing this mess. The Russians are guilty too but most of their actions are reactions to obamas screwed up cia and blackops programs. Remember, we are an oligarchy. Dem or rep, doesn’t matter in the big scheme. Obama and boehner all bow to the same throne. Take a guess who is sitting on it.
