And Ukraine had IRBMs, cruise missiles and many nukes in ‘91. Then they gave them up....
It comes down to the fatal error Ukrainians made. They trusted Russians. Their intelligence service had 5 agents looking for American diversants and the one supposedly keeping track of Russians was a Russian agent who saw nothing.
When I post drunkenly I am very short fused on those buying Russian propaganda and I get angry. I just have to remind myself that it is not me alone who saw this coming.
Vice President candidate Sarah Palin said that if Obama wins then Russia will invade Ukraine next. She was made fun of. Few of these pundits, who made fun of her statement and called her stupid, have apologized.
