Now that you have shown how much stock you put into agreements (rightly so) then you should have been quick to point out that WMDs or not, Iraq signed a cease fire agreement in 91 that stated if Saddam did not let us look under even his wife's dress then the USA could march into his country at their pleasure.

Maybe Bush letting him of the hook for all Putin and Co. have done with Iran and Iraq inspired Vad to say "I am altering the agreement."?

Wild Bill, yesterday you said that Russia would not annex Crimea. Today?

My opinion is Ukraine to NATO and flood the European market with cheap American LNG. Russians should get used to extreme poverty again.

Favourables is high? With who? People who hate or are jealous of us?

Yes, Muslim Brotherhood just loves him.

Iran love putting virtual cum shots in his mouth.

The Taliban love a guy who put in police like R.O.E.s and has announced we are leaving no mater what the outcome.

Yes, European douchbags love when America is lead by a bitch.

Bush is an imbecile and if you believe that we had any rational justification for the invasion of Iraq, you may be as well. He is personally responsible for the contraction of American power since 2001.

While I think Vlad had every right to do what he did in the Crimea for his nation's interest, I like your idea, kind of goes with mine with an added economic punch that would do more than what the Cocksucker In Chief has come up with.

On your last post. Bush is an imbecile for doing it half assed and with way too much mercy and care for the lives of insignificant dirt worshipping sub humans.

The Dems turning on the cause they voted for to gain power and their sycophantic press have more to do with waning American power. Funny about that wane, we could vaporise most of the globe, we could shut down sea born trade to a trickle, we canb still kill whole cities and leave everything standing.

It's more like a giant who keeps his hickory club in the cave because he keeps listening to bitches to use a willow branch.

We were in a similar place under Carter and that changed as soon as Reagan raised his right hand and said "So help me God.".

Who is at the helm of the ship does matter.

The opposite. Egyptians, Russians and (especially) Saudis and Pakistanis don't like him. He's popular outside of former communist states, Islamic countries, and the former Confederacy (sorry, couldn't let that one go).

I agree that most of what I saw was for US consumption. He's been aggressive with the use of surveillance and drones for sure but not the military generally.

I don't know how the people of the world look at him now that his rapturous promise has crumbled but am pretty sure that friend and foe government leaders consider him weak and indecisive (see Syria). That's to everybody's detriment.

Apparently they're shooting each other now.

And why are people in this thread typing "The Ukraine" or "The Crimea"?

Because you will notice since the Crimea War the English speaking world has referred to it as The Crimea.

On the Ukraine, maybe it's a hold over from growing up in the Cold War and it constantly referred that way?

Yesterday, today and tomorrow i say it is not annexion. It is referendum with ~95% plurarity :)

For you Crimean people just bunch of slaves? They shoud live with any government wich EU or US planned for them?

Look from their point of view. They didn't elect nazis. They don't want nazis.
They had government wich they elcted, but EU and US decidded that they need other government. Nazi government :)
But Crimea dose not want Nazi Government :)

I've never heard of anyone referring to Crimea as "The Crimea". The Ukraine is a holdover from the Cold War for most, but it's apparently a good way to make a Ukrainian a little testy.

Something about their post-Soviet independence.

Sure would have been easier to just keep Ukraine in the first, rather than go through all this trouble.

I am sending this nice card to Vladimir.

I don't particularly like the guy but nothing could be further from the truth. Most of the world, or at least the parts outside of the Middle East, is relieved that the US has what appears to be a rational adult in the White House.

A few quick searches through Google News and LexusNexus show that...nobody has. As usual, he made it up.

Quid pro quo.

Declare that a random seven members of the US Congress are banned from obtaining tourist visas to the US and call it even.

Just the fucking English, who fought a rather famous war there you stupid cunt.

"In English, Crimea has often been referred to with the definite article, as the Crimea, although its usage was more common before the late 20th century."

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crimea

Cunts like you need Jon Stewart and Google, the rest of us READ FUCKING BOOKS ABOUT SUCH THINGS! :finga:
