You keep trotting out these platitudes about leaders, their words, and their consequences.
NOTHING is going to make Putin right for what he did.
NOTHING!
Yes Putin has Crimea. Hitler occupied his neighbors too.
How is Hitler remembered? You do know right?
Putin is a thug dictator. He’s no different than Hitler at the end of the day, as it comes to what he has done to his neighbor state.
Whether Obama is respected or not, has nothing to do with this. We both know he’s a child. Putin will have to answer for his own deeds. Obama has absolutely nothing to do with that. Obama didn’t force him to do it. Good grief.
It only means something when the bad guy loses.
And if he doesn’t - does history care?
No! There is truth to the adage history is written by the winner.
And between states - the balance of power determines who prevails in world affairs, in a word strength and not words, morality or treaties.
Putin invaded Crimea, next door, and you think that makes him Hitler. Why?’
‘
In the past 12 years, US has invaded four countries - none of them next door. That doesn’t make us Hitler. Obama wants to topple the Syrian gov’t — also not next door.
“Obama didn’t force him to do it. Good grief”
Actually, the West did have a hand in this in supporting the “Ukrainian Spring”, which saw the Ukrainian government in Kiev overthrown a few months ago, which then plunged the region into turmoil...
The dice were rolled, this is the apparent outcome so far.
