“Ukraine is in a fight for its very life”
Invalid hysteria doesn’t change facts.
If it weren’t for the coup, we wouldn’t be talking about ANY of this, and there would still be a Ukrainian flag flying over Crimea.
“Invalid hysteria doesn’t change facts.”
Okay, let’s look at some facts: 1941, Japan attacked us in teh Pacific and occupied some American territory and the Nazis declared war on us as well. Did we ally ourselves with filthy, genocidal communists in the Soviet Union to fight them?
Was that “invalid hysteria” or “facts”?
“If it weren’t for the coup,”
The Ukrainian parliament says it isn’t a coup. That’s a fact. You’re relying on “invalid hysteria”. The Ukrainian Parliament voted Yanukovich out.
“we wouldn’t be talking about ANY of this, and there would still be a Ukrainian flag flying over Crimea.”
Russia would just run all of Ukraine through Yanukovich instead. Ukraine has a right to be free or Russian control. Also, NOTHING in Kiev warranted a Russian occupation - ENTIRELY ILLEGAL AND AGAINST INTERNATIONAL LAW - of Crimea.
You’re excusing the Russians as if they did nothing wrong. You’re no better than those who excused every action of the USSR.
