That man is like Hitler!!! (audio)
One cannot blame Vlad the Invader Putin too much. He is not "insane," according to author and honorary Pussy Riot member Masha Gessen.
 
And perhaps Hillary Clinton should be brought up on European charges for recently likening "Putin to Hitler" and the Nazis. They may both be dictator but she will, too, when given the chance. Isn't that the milk jug calling the bottle...? Uh, never mind.
 
Pres. Putin may seem crazy to us, for like the fox, there is a method to his apparent madness.
I agree with that B! (Cartman means Bolshevik)
The United States of America is NOT the "world's police." Maybe it should be, but it's not: Not only are we not Top Cop in any moral/ethical or official sense of the word -- since we look the other way every time it is not in our economic or strategic interest to intervene to stop war crimes -- it is the CIA butting in to stir up trouble, overthrow democratically-elected governments, assassinate leaders (first sending in the Bankers, like the IMF and World Bank, then the Jackals to break kneecaps and depose resisters) and so on.

We only call in the military when corporations can make more money than they would without war -- but only after manufacturing a pretext. We never go without an artificial pretext.

Give WAR a chance? (veteransforpeace.org)
Genocides, invasions, seizures, it's all fine with us, the US. But if tiny Grenada, Somalia, or Haiti step out of line in the slightest -- it's call in the Navy, call in the Air Force, call in the imperial ground troops. The USA is open for business, and business LOVES asymmetric war profits. After the fiasco of Vietnam, why do mothers still send their sons and fathers their daughters?

The confrontation between Russia and Ukraine continued Monday. Ukrainian officials and some journalists say Russia demanded that two Ukrainian naval ships surrender by 5:00 am local time or face an attack. Russian officials denied making any such demands.

What the Kremlin!
US Secretary of State John Kerry is being dispatched to Kiev to reassure the new government of US support. He told ABC's George Stephanopoulos Monday that “all options are on the table” when it comes to steps the US can take to hold Russia accountable for its military movements in Ukraine. Russia's moves in Crimea have challenged Pres. Barack Obama in a way that no other international crisis has so far. More

This is how Russia's intervention in Ukraine is playing in Moscow
