Looks like Russia is going to be defeeated!
I never took you for a fool ................ until now!
The Russians are up against the US and its Allies who, if you go back a few months, without doubt they are the ones that instigated all this. The proof is overwhelming ......... that is if you don’t base your opinion on the Western Press and statements from Western leaders.
The US financed those opposing the elected government, allowed the genuine protestors to be overridden by Svoboda/Right Sector extremists both with National Socialist (NAZI) agenda’s and to overthrow the government in an armed coup. The US, contrary to UN Protocols, recognised this illegal government that they had installed, within hours, again against international law. This bunch of thugs within 24 hours announced that Crimea would lose its autonomy, the Russian base at Sevastopol agreement would be cancelled and they then set about closing down all Russian language radio and TV stations and news papers. The self appointed government put into power in the eastern regions, their US approved Oligarchs to rule these eastern principal regions/cities ............................ and in all that time not a single condemnation from the US!
At the request of the Russian majority the Russians bent the rules and used their military peacefully to successfully thwart aggression against the Russian majority in Crimea. The population made a free and fair decision (confirmed by EU observers) to hold a democratic referendum, and some 97% 0f the 83% that voted made a self determined decision that they wished their ties to be with the Russian Federation. It was only then that pratt’s like Kerry, Obama, Cameron, Hague and Hollande etc. decided to express their ‘horror’ and jacked up the propaganda .................... which the sheeple swallow hook-line-and-sinker because they are too stupid to read up the facts, they just believe the western mouth pieces.
Strange how when it was the US backed right wing extremists Svoboda/Right Sector taking over government buildings in Kiev, killing people and using an armed revolt to impose a coup d’etat...... as far as the US was concerned that was fine. But, when the people of eastern Ukraine rise up to thwart these right wing thugs ........ the US calls them terrorists and threatens the Russians.
Unless this situation is calmed down, which is what I see the Russians trying to do, this is going to end in a conflict of such proportions that are NO WINNERS! The full blame for this sits squarely on the shoulders of the US Administration ............ the Russians, through Lavrov have proved themselves to be the peace makers it is the US and its puppets that are war mongers!
The following sums it up .......... I'm confused, can anyone help me? By Neil ClarkeI'm confused. A few weeks ago we were told in the West that people occupying government buildings in Ukraine was a very good thing. These people, we were told by our political leaders and elite media commentators, were 'pro-democracy protestors'.
The US government warned the Ukrainian authorities against using force against these 'pro-democracy protestors' even if, according to the pictures we saw, some of them were neo-Nazis who were throwing Molotov cocktails and other things at the police and smashing up statues and setting fire to buildings.
Now, just a few weeks later, we're told that people occupying government buildings in Ukraine are not 'pro-democracy protestors' but 'terrorists' or 'militants'.

Robin Hood,
those occupying the buildings are separatist militias and there is some evidence that suggests they are Russian Regulars.
The Ukraine has the right to defend its territorial integrity from these separatists or Russian Military whichever the case may be.
What is so unreasonable about this?
Secondly, the elected Government had an agenda of dismantling the Ukraine so there is no surprise that there was a Coup. They DO NOT have any right to dismantle or partition the country and as such their actions were criminal and treacherous! Since when is that LEGAL?
