The Ukraine was not attacked by anyone except those currently in charge of Kiev who obtained their power not by votes or law and order but rocks, bottles, fire and gunfire.
The people of Crimea, who saw the government of Ukraine overthrown by a western backed coup, decided to stand for their right of self determination by voting to leave it behind.
To suggest that the proper response to this is to somehow attack them is the epitome of irony and ingorance. We are only for democracy when it turns out our way.
The White Hut Secret Service should exercise “restraint”.
About 70-80% of the Ukrainian armed forces would join up with Russia. 77% of Ukrainian military in Crimea have done so. They are not loyal to the Banderist Kiev regime.
This was a very good article. James Sherr makes a lot of sense.
Russia won’t die either, but I am confident that it will lose. It does not understand this country. Even if it wins this round, it will lose. The Kremlin thought it won in December when Yanukovych signed the accord on December 17 [regarding Russian $15 billion loan package], and Putin’s cronies announced that ‘Ukraine is ours.’ Then in two months time, they found they had no influence in Ukraine at all. We now need to show Russia: you take Crimea, you lose Ukraine; you take more of Ukraine, you lose Europe. I think it’s eminently feasible.
Pooty truly does not understand the love of liberty that beats in a heart wanting to be free of tyranny.

But here it is : Rabbi Hillel ... "If I am not for myself, who is for me? And when I am for myself, what am 'I'? And if not now, then when?"
