If we must give Hitler all of the Ruhr if we wish to avoid war We Must give Putin the Crimea if we wish to avoid war.

Putin only wants to protect the German Speaking Minorities in the Sudetenland Russian speaking minorities in Donbass.

For the record..... Putin already has Crimea and it is not really ours to give.

My theory has always been that the Putin gambit in Ukraine is a win win campaign. When he ceases the aggressive action the EU and Obama will crow victory and Putin will be smiling over lunch in Sevastopol
