John McCain Is Going To Ukraine
Zero Hedge ^ | 12 March 2014 | Tyler Durden

Posted on 03/12/2014 3:41:00 PM PDT by Errant

. Three weeks ago, John Kerry came, saw, and launched a blitz-diplomatic campaign which promptly resulted in, well, Russia annexing Crimea.

Now it is the turn of that other foreign policy titan, neo-con John McCain, to complete Kerry's job and finally launch the GDP-boosting World War III. He may have the chance to do that as soon as Thursday, when he, along with other senators, is slated to travel to Ukraine to "show support for the government there." Or, said otherwise, to show support for the government that is in power thanks to an illegitimate and deadly coup that took place just over two weeks ago, despite the formal signing of a memorandum, endorsed by all Western powers, that stipulated a peaceful transition as well as presidential elections in the coming months. When presented like that, one almost thinks back to the roaring success that was the US endorsement of the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood regime (where the US too had zero involvement, repeat zero involvement) that also took over following a violent coup. As well as the largely predictable countercoup that overthrew said regime.

Why in the world do we care what happens in the Ukraine? The Russians have wanted a Black Sea port and access going back as far as Peter the Great. Let them war upon each other.

Look for the mincing burka carrying Queeg’s valise. This is too good of a globalist photo op to miss.

McCain is so preposterous that he can be of very little use anymore to whomever one understands to have supported him in past times. But I will gladly contribute to a ( one way) ticket for him so he can go shoot his mouth off in Ukraine. Not sure the Ukrainians really deserve it, tho.

"Good evening news junkies from all over the world, this is Mortamer Sneerd broadcasting to you live from Ukraine where Senator McCain has just arrived. He is being greeted by dozens who are literally swarming him, shaking his hand and,,,,,, wait a minute,,,,,, something has happened. A gunshot has just been heard and the Senator seems to be hiding on the ground. OMG! OMG!, the Senator seems to be the one receiving the projectile and it appears that it entered somewhere in the vicinity of his trunk. Exact location will be determined at the autopsy tomorrow. I now return to you to our studios,,,, take it away....

"Hope a Ukraine girl really knocks him out."

Froggy the Gremlin used to plunk his magic twanger, so maybe one of those girls can make McCain's balalaika ring out.
