Ukraine
U.S. using Ukraine to threaten Russia
Submitted by gjohnsit on Mon, 09/17/2018 - 4:27pmTensions are rising fast in the northern Black Sea and the U.S. has taken sides.
I wrote a diary in the Daily kos regarding current US foreign policy in Ukraine and Syria. I believe this response to that diary is a perfect example of Democrats in this day and age.
Submitted by Akze on Thu, 07/19/2018 - 5:44amI will take American officials arming neonazis in Ukraine (even if I were to accept your characterization, which I do not) over Russians making us NOT arm them every day of the week and twice on Sundays. And I think anyone who wouldn’t should just go ahead and move to Moscow already and let the Americans figure out America for ourselves.
The Russians are scared, and that is very, very bad
