Always heartwarming to see the love for old Soviet Russia renewal by invading others here on Free Republic.
(Puke)
- How dare liberty loving Americans get in the way of an authoritarian external government takeover!
- How dare those Ukrainian people stand in the way of Russia taking over the rest of their country, and seizing their remaining natural resources!
Don’t those Ukrainian people know they are surfs of the Kremlin... Sheesh, how many centuries will it take for those pesky surf Ukrainian’s to get the message...?
- And the same goes for Moldova and Romania as well!
Look, the Ukraine is going to be run by someone. Russia, Prussia, Austria or Turkey.
Let the people in L’viv go and have all the gay pride parades the EU can provide. The rest of the people are basically Russians.
No worse than seeing people champion the neo-nazi militants in Ukraine that literally name battalions after SS psychopaths. Kiev was overthrown by a violent western Ukrainian mob. That doesn’t mean they naturally inherit everything owned by old Ukraine. That is because people in Crimea and the Donbas have the same right to self-determination that the people in Kehe beyond. If the principle for achieving power is the use of force. Don’t be surprised if other people decide to do the same thing you did.
It was always a little bit insane for the neocons to dream that Sevastopol was going to become a NATO Navy base.
