Russia and Putin have taken the lemons from the Ukraine crisis and made lemonade. His nation has rallied around the concept of fighting the fascists in a re-creation of World War II history that U.S. “experts” apparently overlooked, namely that hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians collaborated with Nazis. Having lost 26.6 million fighting fascists during WWII, it is not in Russia’s political DNA to allow fascists, real or imagined, to rise to power right in the Slavic heartland [see "Ukraine and the Rebirth of Fascism" and thousands of far-right Ukrainian nationalists parade] of Kiev to honor Nazi collaborator and killer of Jews and Poles Stephan Bandara. Here, neo-nationalists abused Soviet Victory Day veterans in Lvov. There is bad blood on all sides. This is not going to be resolved any time soon.
Accordingly, Russia will take control of certain areas of eastern Ukraine and the Crimea and do it primarily with ethnic Russian Ukrainians already living there. Many other non-Russian Ukrainians speak Russian as their first language. Although this may be called an occupation by the West, it is really a succession under the friendly gaze of Mother Russia. These regions are in defacto full control of Russia and/or Russia’s Ukrainian allies, who aren’t going anywhere.
Why is the Crimea part of the Ukraine? It only became part of Ukraine when Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev arbitrarily gave the peninsula to his native land in 1954. It hardly mattered until the Soviet Union broke up in 1991 and Crimea ended up in an independent Ukraine.
Any fighting that develops in the contested areas will be largely between paramilitary units. If Russian minorities are attacked in other areas of the Ukraine, Russia will demand and enforce their protection. Russian false flags such as car bombs can’t be ruled out either.
Then the poorer, destitute, western Ukraine will be dumped on Europe and the U.S., and a large bailout bill will be sent their way. Should the West do more than blow steam, Russia can cut off much of the natural gas to Europe. At this stage, the $60 billion in international Ukraine debt will surely default and is now largely in the hands of Parasite Guild vultures. I have already suggested that central and eastern Europe is in trouble.
Whichever neo-con dreamed up this lose-lose Ukrainian Revolution concoction must have been smoking some strong crack. Instead of the Ukraine succumbing to the loving embrace of the New World Order, where it would serve as another profit-generating cog in Wall Street’s wheel, it apparently didn’t occur to western boneheads that the Ukraine is rapidly descending into a “Mad Max” type of anarchy that could spill over its borders into neighboring countries, triggering violent conflagrations, social upheaval and regional instability.
I suspect what has happened in the U.S. is that all the talent and ability in the agencies that run these ad hoc out-of-control foreign and surveillance policies were compromised or replaced with political hacks and gangsters lacking any professionalism or understanding of history. Conceptually, these are likely the same types of morons who put together the Obamacare website.
In contrast, Russian leadership is professional, sly and capable, tested by hard times and devoted to Mother Russia, as opposed to the Parasite Guild. It will be interesting to see what China’s role is now. This was the wrong venue to play from the Soros-globalist, NGO-bankster playbook. These stupid pretenders will be outfoxed by Putin again and again.
Additionally, the bankster guildists will not be able to control the Ukrainian neo-nationalists. I don’t think Germany wants to touch this with a 10-foot pole. Been there, done that [Ukrainian Nazi collaboration in Holocaust]. The mass flyer shown here (translated from Ukrainian) was the free passage of 200,000 Red Army Ukrainians used to desert to the Germans in 1941. Present day, the Jewish population in Kiev has been warned to leave. [Watch "Roots of Ukrainian Anti-Semitism."] In fact, I see only two ways out of this for the U.S.: crawl home with its tail between legs or a false flag. It is the false flag that should be of greatest concern.
