being happy because the west is to scared to fight russia mano a mano is not something to be happy about

[Kalahari Inkantation]

that's not what i'm happy about

but i am happy that russia's economy is now stagnating even more than it usually does as a result of its immeasurable greed and envy

"The West... wants to seize Ukraine so to speak, being solely motivated by its own geopolitical ambitions and not the interests of the Ukrainian people," Mr Lavrov said, according to AFP.

russia wants desperately to keep its imperial territories out of the western sphere of influence, but all its actions have managed to accomplish is their accelerated integration with one another lol

[spoiler]

my only fear is that shotgunning europe's poorest and lest stable nations into the integration process might not be good for the overall long-term stability of the eu, but i'm sure it's a calculated risk that they've found themselves comfortable with if it means undermining and protecting eastern europe (((and the world))) from revitalized russian expansion[/spoiler]

also, jesus ing christie if this is accurate

http://www.businessinsider.com/r-toppled-mafia-president-cost-ukraine-up-to-100-billion-prosecutor-says-2014-30#ixzz30NeLsCjQ

could you imagine corruption so extensive and widespread as to leech $9 trillion out of the us economy

proportionally, that's what $100 billion is to ukraine

my god

the $32 billion taken by yanukovych in the final days of his presidency alone are equivalent to nearly 20% of ukraine's annual economy

that's comparable to a single american in possession of $3 trillion

[silvertone]

he is cool.
