“King George III, is that you?”

King George violated the rights of those living in America. The pro-Russian forces in Ukraine violated the rights of Ukrainians in their own homeland. The Ukrainian people have every right to overthrow a pro-Russian corrupt government, replace it with one more acceptable, and then assert their national authority in every corner of their own country. It’s THEIR country.

“and then assert their national authority in every corner of their own country.”

That is a BIG part of the problem. The new powers in Kiev aren’t able to influence events much outside of the capital,it seems.

And those UKRAINIANS who don’t agree with the new regime are being beaten in the streets.

Using your own logic, if the UKRAINIANS outside of Kiev decide that the coup government is illegitimate, don’t they also have the right to throw them out, or cast off their chains?

Yeah, it’s their country -— so we need to stay out of it.

Thank you for agreeing with me.

The ultimate point of my earlier post...

The man who was beaten (and those who beat him) are ALL Ukrainians. This isn't a case of an outsider beating him. Your straw man argument falls apart. Like I said, King George III, is that you?

Question: You would have Tsarev beaten and then shot?

Question 2: What about the Neo-Nazi beating him?

I don't care for the Commies or the neo-Nazis in Ukraine (or for that thug Putin for that matter), but why would you (if this is the case) prefer one over the other?
