Are you going to go to war with Putin to take originally Russian Crimea, largely settled by Russians away from Russia and give it Ukraine who only had it in the first place because Kruschev assigned it administratively to Ukraine? Are you going to go to war with Putin so that the Eastern Russian districts that have rebelled against Ukraine can be forced to be part of Ukraine? And are you going to do all of that so you can get another couple of cities to build NATO andministrative buildings in and hire European bureaucrats at high salaries to sit in - all paid for by .... you do know who the mark in the room is don’t you?
The area was so Russian, the Crimean vote consisted of things like a 125% voter turnout in Sevestopol despite reports that polling locatiosn across Crimea were empty, and the only big election news in Crimea was Russian soldiers dragging away a protesting Crimean Tatar on video who was later found tortured to death with a knife through his eye. Of course, Russia might win a second referendum because they've stocked the place with 250,000 Russkies on the low end or 1 million on the high end, depending on what estimate you accept, just like they did when they killed 11 million Ukrainians during the Holodomor and filled the place up with Russians.
