I do care who wins... Putin’s profile is remarkable like Hitler’s. We can can not appease. He needs to be stopped.
First they came for the Socialists, and I did not
speak out— Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not
speak out— Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—
and there was no one left to speak for me.

Like Hitler?
People here in the US better start working on and speaking out about the rape of the US Constitution without paying attention to the deliberately distracting regurgitation of propaganda BS about YouCrane.
Let the Socialists, Trade Unionists, and Jews, in Ukraine speak out for themselves without our sticking our nose in it.
If YouCrane hadn't had an illegal coup none of this would be happening, their gas would cost them far less then they're paying now, they'd still have credit to pay for energy rather than paying in advance, they'd have fifteen billion less debt, and the IMF wouldn't be dictating what austerity measures they have to take.
All just if they had waited until scheduled elections.
The theives in power now knew damn well they couldn't win an election or they'd have waited until the already scheduled election to toss the other theives out. Not because the elections would be rigged, either, that's more BS. They knew if there were free and fair elections in the East and Southeast their sweethearts couldn't win. Period, that's what the whole coup was about. One band of thugs ousting another band of thugs they didn't have a chance against if they stayed within the law and the people who got shafted the most not being willing to lie down and take it.
If the people in the East and Southeast believed Putin would rush to their aid they were just deluding themselves. Putin rusing in with troops is the best of all possible outcomes in the eyes of the people in charge in Kiev. It solves almost all their problems, gets them out of the IMF austerity requirements, gains them billions of sympathy bucks, and puts foreign troops in Kiev to keep them in power. What, you think none of them looked at how Kosovo played out and why?
Anyone who bothered to actually read both agreements knows for a fact the people of Ukraine fare far worse harnessed to the IMF/EU Honey Dipper cart than they would have under the deal Russia offered them to just stay with the Status Quo.
But it's all Putin's fault. What, tired of saying, "Bush's fault"?
