Too Little Too Late

 Top Ukrainian Military Adviser Reportedly Floats Arming Citizens If Russia Gets Too Close [More]

You guys should have done that on Day One of separation. Instead, you did this.

I hope you don't expect our people to take up arms...?

  1. In the Warsaw Pact v NATO days, the USSR stockpiled ammo of all types in areas close to the "front" but far enough back to be somewhat secure from NATO attack. Those secure forward ammo dumps were in......

    Wait for it......

    Ukraine!

    When the USSR fell apart, the Russians had neither the money to remove their troops from East Germany, or barracks to house them. So they left them to become a German problem. They also didn't have the means to draw back those nuclear and conventional weapons stockpile in Ukraine. So they left them in place as well. That, presto change-o, made Ukraine one of the most heavily armed states in Europe.

    Guess who came to their rescue and helped them with logistics to disarm, of their nuclear as well as conventional munitions.

    Yep, that would be the rookie Senator from Illinois, one Barak Hussein Obama.

    Who helped negotiate the treaty that guranteed the physical integrity of Ukraine's borders?

    OMG, that guy looks a lot like former Senator John F, Kerry (who served in Viet Nam).

    One thing you can count on from people like Obama and Kerry. When things go pear shaped, they will take everything but the blame.

    OTOH, if former Senator Al Gore hadn't invented the Internet, we wouldn't be able to drag up this stuff and remind them of their f*ckups quite so easily.

  2. What an excellent analysis David.

    Now I wonder where Gen. Kyrylo O. Budanov was in 1991 and his attitude was back then.

  3. During WW2, while Ukraine was under German occupation, an underground army (UPA) formed to fight the occupiers. After the defeat of Germany, this army turned its attention to the Soviets. Communists used all the dirty tricks to attempt to discredit UPA, but despite their efforts the movement was only extinguished in the early 1950s. Putin knows this history. I think it will be Ukraine's only hope...and I hope President Potatohead and his incompetent advisers do *not* get the brilliant idea of committing American forces - to divert attention from the trainwreck economy and show how tough he is, don't ya know.
