If people won't buy this allegedly "utter nonsense" for a second then they are free to buy utter BS from the western propaganda for a lifetime. That's what exactly they are doing daily, though.

What other reasonable choice? To stay with Ukraine was totally unreasonable choice for the crimeans. It was totally unwanted thing for them at all initially. So why they should have been including this option? Because it's resonable for you? But it was their referendum, not yours. They knew much better than you what options are reasonable for them themselves.

Your example is utterly irrelevant here, and has too many perverted fantasy that doesn't remind about this referendum even remotely. Sorry dude, but it's even sound silly.

Re-read this again. Seriously? You think that people who grew up with freedoms won't comprehend that a lack of choice is not freedom? The referendum was meant to show that the people of Crimea wanted to separate from the Ukraine, and join Russia....but that's NOT the choice they were given.

Your argument is sad.

Such propaganda sites with the similar anti-russia BS, fakes and false flag lies are tons online. Who will take them seriously? Nobody in the world can prove those things are ever made by russians. Even CIA can't do that. There are no any real evidence or fact of it, except for such sites and the western media fabrications.
But you can go to the credible sources like the UN or OSCE and read daily reports of whats going on there for real. Daily and spot reports from the Special Monitoring Mission to Ukraine | OSCE
And you know what? Almost daily the ukrainian thugs along with international mercenaries are killing peaceful civilians in the Eastern Ukraine and in the same time are accusing russians for that.
I will tell you even more. I have relatives, friends and classmates who live in Ukraine and I know the ukrainian situation from inside.

How could they grew up with freedoms with such enmeshing bureaucracy that you propagate here?
You still can't grasp the idea that the crimeans didn't want to stay in Ukraine by default! They didn't consider this "choice" at all. But with your freedom they must have been include this unwanted choice in the poll. It is not freedom, it's kind of intrusion of unwanted things.

I won't read all the propaganda BS on internet. Google and youtube aren't sources of a genuine knowledge. But looks like that every fake on the MSM is the gospel truth for you, and this is why you're trying to represent them as an absolute proof. It's funny, bud.
And why do I need to get back to you if you were totally ignoring what I was saying in my previous post? If you can't hear me than I don't wanna waste my time to talk to you. Sorry, bro.

I am quite sure some Russians did nasty things, but its a little hard to tell who should go into the penalty box after a series of 99+ hockey sticks to the groin. That is to say its now in an endless tit for tat ethnic conflict, meaning its time to break up the largest country in Europe that never in the history of the world was a country until recently. No one ever tried to do this since someone decided to use the dead body parts of criminals and apply lightening strokes.

I've met Russian speaking Ukrainians, and native speaking Ukrainians.


My opinions are based on what I think is likely to have happened not what I know to have happened.


Stalin Killed a cartload of people. (And before him the Czars were none to nice.) Their grand kids are pissed. Ugly on both sides.


One side isn't good the other bad, they are both bad and both good. Making peace there is hard.
