The first is that Russia has stirred all this crap up and has infiltrated Ukraine with hundreds of SpecOps inciting, arming and organizing ethnic Russians in an attempt to overthrow a legitimate Urkainian government.
The other is that a bunch of Western "Fascists", aided by NATO Security Services overthrew the legitimately elected government and are intent to mortgage Urkranian assets and culture to Berlin.
I have to admit I tend toward the second explanation, but also respect the perspective of others.
There's three sides to every story: One side's story, the other side's story, and the truth. It's not always easy to find the truth.
Which one, I don't know.
What I do know is that Obama has the anti-Midas touch on foreign policy: 1.) Libya (Benghazi),
2.) Egypt: The Obama administration said the Muslim Brotherhood was “largely secular.”
It turned out they weren't. They persecuted Jews, Christians, and secular Muslims in Egypt more than Mubarak was said to have done, were ousted and now Egypt is unfortunately closer to Russia than it is the U.S.
3.) Syria: Obama waited two years two late, and thug Assad is left in power because most Americans realized that it was either him or Al Qaeda on the throne in Syria.
Because of the Arab “Spring” Israel is now unfortunately closer to Russia than the U.S. And God help us on that...
I hate to say this but I think Ukraine is better off with Russia than the degenerate West.
