Russia needs to get the hell out of Ukraine and leave those people alone.

You clearly do not grasp what is going on there.

Ukraine has no where to go other than Russia. All Ukrainians other than extreme retards speak Russian now; nobody other than historians will speak Ukrainian in fifteen years. You might have noticed that all of the interviews you've been watching from the Ukraine are in Russian...

The offer which Russia had made to the Ukrain was workable, which is why Yanukovich took it; the offer the EU made leaves anybody stupid enough to have taken it holding the bag. George Soros makes an art form out of leaving other people holding the bag.

EU and Soros leave Ukraine holding the bag

"As early as February 27th, it was clear that the EU was dragging its feet as to the sums that would have to be contributed in order to stabilize the Ukrainian economy. On February 28, the German minister of foreign affairs declared that the EU could commit itself to the tune of… 1 billion euros. However, in view of the present collapse of the Ukrainian economy, it’s between 20 and 25 billion euros a year which will have to be provided, over 4 to 5 years at least. On March 3rd, the United States Congress committed itself to contribute one billion dollars. There are indeed promises, spreading between 20 and 35 billion, but concretely nothing is coming, nor will anything be coming before some time… Manuel Barroso committed himself in the name of the EU for 11 billion euros, but without giving a precise date. The EBRD too has committed itself to lend 5 billion euros, but between 2014 and 2020. The IMF could commit itself to the amount of 14-18 billion dollars, according to a statement of March 27th. One can see that the promised sums remain well short of those needed, covering at best a year and a half, that is, up to the end of 2015. But, what will happen afterwards? Moreover, up to now, the sums really committed are no more than 2 billion. Russian journalists are putting all this to good use [3]. Not only are the leaders in Kiev discovering that there is many a slip ‘twixt the cup and the lip, and ‘twixt promises and realities, but they also notice that this aid would relieve the Ukrainian economy only temporarily. The only solution for Ukraine consists in a rapid resumption of economic relations with Russia."
