Really? I know there are plenty of us who actually see Putin for the threat he is and heave lots of criticism towards Kerry and Obama,,but to say there Freepers who HOPE for a punitive war against Ukraine? I think that’s an irresponsible statement and I respectfully disagree with you.
I think for most of us, we are just taking more of a “Realpolitik” approach to it.
I don’t think anyone wants a war against Ukraine. There are people around here that get too emotional and use overly dramatic words because people disagree on who all is behind that mess over there.
People are the side of America unlike our current WH regime. Most of us are disgusted and embarrassed at the US Foreign Policy of the regime.
Our weakness is an invitation for strong men to assert their policy and wildest dreams and they are taking advantage of it.
We can only sit back and watch.
I respectfully, then, request you pay closer attention because the inexorable support for Putinism is widespread violence against non Russians.
There’s a few like this poster on FR who are gung ho at slamming anything remotely suggesting, (int their minds) any here are favoring Putin. They don’t seem to appreciate discussion nor debate.....
For me I think thus far Crimea and Ukraine..and actually Putin are conducting themselves very well in Crimea when you consider all the moving parts. At any rate Crimea was a done deal two weeks ago...now just a matter of transferring it all under Russian authority.....
Apparently Putin has stated the entire operation is marked to take a year...expected completion by Jan. 15, 2015..or there abouts.
