In this case the problem is not communism.

The gist of the posted article is that Ukraine is going to retake Donbas after they join NATO and the border with Russia is sealed with “international troops”.

That’s a hoot right there, I don’t care who you are.

May as well turn on the Looney Tunes...since it’s Saturday Morning.

I actually hope all of the above is Poroshenko’s wishful thinking or propaganda aimed to persuade his domestic audience as if he still has allies abroad.

On the other hand that ‘international peacekeepers’ thing it not new and was used for ethnic cleansing in Yugoslavia.

Not the first time Poroshenko has boasted of ‘cleansing’ Southern Ukraine and Crimea, and in short order; I expect he is repeating it now for his home audience. Previously, the Russians haven’t exactly allowed him a free hand and I don’t know any reasons why that should have changed.

Ancient enmities, racism, and xenophobia are often referred to by political ideologies

It hasnt taken much incitement to stir up ethnic Ukrainians against Russian heritage citizens - mob vs mob

You forget the kenyan is no longer in the White House and giving Putin a free hand to murder in Ukraine.

The Ukrainians are free to escalate the conflict at any time. At which point it will be obvious again that they are facing an invading Russian Army and not local “miners and farmers.”

Given that Putin has not been helpful on North Korea and Iran it would not surprise me at all to see POTUS drop the hammer on the tin pot Czar.

Not really. If had been paying attention you would know that when this kicked off in Donbas the violence was entirely on the Russian side. Pro Ukraine marchers violently assaulted, local pro ukraine politicians murdered, etc.

If the cause is so just, why the need for such dishonesty?

Gee isn’t that the equivalent of claiming the the Russian- speaking, Russian culturally connected citizens in Ukraine and in Crimea, and those who oppose becoming part of NATO, are “ Putinistas”


No, I am referring to Russians from Moscow like Igor Girkin who went to Crimea and sized the Crimean parliament at gun point. Then went to eastern Ukraine to continue their murder.

Ukraine wishes to ally with Western Europe. Western Europe is lost to Islam.

No American blood or treasure for Ukraine.

I forgot to add, NATO is also lost to Islam.

That fact was proven when we butchered the poor Serbs to defend the violent Muslim terrorists who were attacking them.

No US President has ever, or will ever directly challenge Russia in Ukraine.

It’s just not going to happen.

Ever.

You don’t see many Russians acting similarly or Americans for that matter.
You might disagree with some social developments at your home country but you don’t burn crosses based on it.
