Oh crikes give it a break. Crimea was not historically part of the Ukraine anyway. Where were you when everything was consolidated as the Soviet Union?

If Putin was going to take the Ukraine he would already have done it. He hasn’t got the money to fight that war. He’s pretty far into his egg money just hanging on to Crimea. Not with oil at $51 a barrel and he’s been trying to help Assad out in Syria.

You ascribe mystical powers to Russia that they don’t have. It takes a lot of money to play the imperialist game and Russia does not have it.

Do you believe everything that was part of the Soviet Union belongs to Putin?
