Is the left losing their mind? Russia's military troops and equipment is not what makes it dangerous, it's their NUCLEAR arsenals and willingness to win at any cost. You folks need to read some history books, even when the Soviets left Afghanistan, they did so only after committing war crimes. Like planting IEDs inside of toys.
Do you think Russia has ANY intention of unleashing nukes in an adjoining country, that they intend to take over and call their own?
Russia is a highly multi-ethnic state kept together by a thin veneer of power.
And likewise this ****hole we call America.

The people here have no idea what happened in 2014. They're ignorant morons spewing their Dunning-Kruger opinions or regurgitated talking-points from MSNBC.
I agree that many Americans are biased and they also mostly receive information that is provded to them that is from government or biased. However, i think you are also biased and I think this military action was clearly not necessary.
I think that ultimately Eastern Ukraine should probably be transitioned to either independent or under Russian rule. Any people have the right to choose their government and shouldnt be kept within a nation against their will. The same would go for Taiwan and China. China doesnt have right to land that doesnt wish to be a part of China. I also think that the US citizens dont recognize the real legitimate concerns of Russia when it comes to having NATO in border nations. So something needed to give there also. But a massive military action where innocent citizens will die and have their lives ruined is too much of an action at this point.

I think Putin really did not want to invade, but he had to. I noticed when they were showing how he addressed representatives of the Russian economy today.
The Ukrainian army is infested with nazis, who don't even try to hide it. Amazing that the West completely ignores that fact. Countries like Germany, which should know better.
The West has been pouring a lot of arms into Ukraine over the years, especially recently, which will ultimately end up in the hands of that ultra-nationalist scum. Putin had to act now. He tried to make the West listen to his concerns, but he was ignored. So he had to resort to his plan B.
Separatism is a difficult topic. Once that genie is out of the bottle, it would infect the whole world like a virus. Every little ethnic minority would try to get its own little country because, let's face it, most humans are racists. It would lead to hundreds of new countries that could not survive, anyway.
