They're stuck on stupid unfortunately. Just go home. This will get you nowhere.
Like it or not, The EU will do you know good. Russia is willing to support you for a time.
To: mandaladon
President Barack Obama stepped in to condemn the violence, warning Wednesday "there will be consequences" for Ukraine if it keeps up. The U.S. has raised the prospect of joining with the EU to impose sanctions against Ukraine...........Another foreign policy success of the Obama administration.

This is all of Putin's making. He's pulling the strings. The Ukrainians want to be free. Let them go, Putin, you KGB thug.

Fearing that a call for a truce was a ruse, protesters tossed firebombs and advanced upon police lines
Fearing a thing, they created it.

There is definitely nothing we can do about the situation.
Lots of people here in the states emotionally screeching “WE GOTTA DO SOMETHING!” but if you ask them what we gotta do, they got nuthin.

so next we invade Ukraine?
Is every problem our problem?
I am not an isolationist but we sure get into a lot of civil wars that have no national interest. A whole lot of “broader humanitarian concerns.”
But I will admit ignorance on this one. Anybody have a brief synopsis on what this conflict is about?

It's not our fight, but it is something that matters.
Here is a link that explains things well enough.

There is definitely nothing we can do about the situation. Freedom isn't free, the people are making the first payments

Its not a Civil War when one side is being bankrolled by George Soros and the US/NATO. Its called subversion.

They are shooting protesters down in Caracas too, but the government has the media under control there with officials in every news room.

They won’t find freedom with the EU either but its all something they need to figure out for themselves.

Ukraine agreed to enter a trade pact with the EU (probably as a precursor to joining).
Russia was displeased, and made an offer Ukraine "couldn't" refuse.
The Ukrainian president went with the Russian offer.
The portion of Ukraine that wants nothing to do with Russia took to the streets.
That's about it.

Pray for these people. I have a friend who family is there. Wonder if Obama would give them asylum? Probably not, they are Christians.
