    Putin wants to restore the lost Soviet empire. He lost touch with reality.

    The Ukrainian government ran up a huge debt and turned to the EU for help.

    The EU tried to enslave the Ukraine into the western debt -based system.

    The government turned to Russia for a better bail out deal. Putin obliged with a generous deal and cheap Russian gas.

    The West then used proxies,'useful idiots' and agents provocateurs to oust the president.

    In other words they carried out an illegal "regime change" in Kiev.

    Russia reacted to protect its assets and citizens from the new regime.

    The Crimea is only part of the Ukraine by an accident of history when in 1957 Khrushchev made it part of the Ukraine when both Russia and Ukraine were part of the Soviet Union.

    It has been Russian before that for longer that most the US has been American.

    The Russians also have a right to military bases in the Crimea under a Treaty signed with the Ukraine. So Russia hasn't even invaded there as such.

    The West is the prime aggressor here in this. Don't expect the western media or government to tell you this however.

    Don't believe all you hear from western media, here is some real news for you

    1-ashton and Estonian FM talks have been leaked connecting the dots about snipers in Kiev, they have been ordered by the opposition (current leaders in Ukraine) to kill police and protesters. Neither the United States nor Europe wants to investigate this crime! America and the European Union are deceiving the whole world. The USA and EU have made snipers disappear knowing full well that any investigation would lead directly back to them.

    2-Nato countries and primarily USA has sent 300 mercenaries (Blackwater ) to Ukraine - I am sure you can guess for what reason

    3-the meeting of Lavrov and Kerri has resulted in going back to Feb. 21 agreement, (not a word about Russian invasion)

    4-russia has said it will take over all USA and EU assets in Russia if they will impose sanctions.

    5-Russian forces are in their military bases, and have not invaded, attacked or killed anyone. Units that have been seen in Crimea have the right under the treaty to move around.

    6-russia has a right to have 25k troops in Crimea under the treaty, so the 16k soldiers soldiers invading Ukraine is a hoax. They never exceeded the 25k limit.

    The US is now in the process of collapsing due to its own making..

    Socially - USA has left the fundamental beliefs of our fore fathers and are becoming socially without morals. Democrats in US started the KKK. It is flourishing. The racism is still alive, they just hate on a different race now.

    Politically - USA has as much or more corruption as 3rd world countries have - In the words of Donald Trump "we are becoming a banana republic".

    Economically - USA own politicians are destroying the economy on purpose. The banner days of the USA are almost over.

    Obama is a traitor! $5 billion funded through the CIA front USAID paid for starting a civil war in Ukraine.

    YOU let Obama to use YOUR tax-money for Terror and WAR in other countries and You pay for it!

    $1.81 Gas Price (Today - $3.69)

    10 Trillion Debt (Today over 17 billion, PLUS 7 TRILLION is just Obama's term!)

    26 Weeks Unemployment (Today 99 Weeks Unemployment)

    Annual Budget (Today no annual budget).

    America needs to stop acting as world police.

    The Wight House needs to shut up in Ukraine!

    Russian nukes are best USA containment strategy.
