Oh, it was Ukraine that did all this "with a little help in the form of some ammunition and such" from the US (and others)?

Uh, no it wasn't.

Gee, those of us saying we were actually the ones doing the planning, directing and Generalling -- and they were doing the dying -- were right from the start.  Yet another "conspiracy theory" goes up in smoke; the NY Times brings receipts.

If you don't have a sub:

IMHO this makes the entire US -- all of it, including you and I, since we're the reason the United States can fight a war, when you get down to it -- legitimate targets of the Russian military.

We, and everyone else, must adopt that position because it is that, and only that, which deters aggression -- the knowledge that if you let your government do it you will be shot at, your house bombed, your spouse and children killed and your cities reduced to ash -- not just some faceless poor bastard in a trench "over there."

In other words you're either consensually in on the action in question because you believe the risk is worth it or you remove your government by whatever means you must because if you don't then you get shot, blown up and your **** incinerated because you're a pussy and thus you deserve it.
