I keep going back to the beginning of this entire affair.
Had not Obama decided to back the most violent elements of the Maidan protests, as a way of ‘Getting Back” at Putin after the Syria Attack Embarrassment, NONE of this would be happening...
-There would still be a Ukrainian flag flying over Crimea.
-The already called for early elections in Ukraine would have already happened.
-There wouldn’t be a Civil War.
-There would never have been an innocent civilian plane shot down.
-Thousands now dead would still be alive.
-U.S. Troops wouldn’t now be heading for Ukraine as ‘advisors’.
The sad fact that many still won’t accept is that this whole situation has been caused by Obama’s incredible foreign policy failures. Not just one, but MANY, one after another.
And Obama just keeps upping the ante.
What about Putin sticking his nose into Ukraine’s business in the first place, and the guy who turned out to be one of his goons shooting a bunch of protestors?

Unlike you Ruskie, we don’t salute the Russian flag here or let our enemies dictate how we defend ourselves.
