    (If God intends to use Putin (and the Jєωs) at some time as an instrument to chastise the West and even the entire world including its very self so be it. It's not as if the West or even the entire world is not lacking a need for it.)

  • One quibble here:

    As Macgregor notes, Russia was always going to strategically win a war in eastern Ukraine for the same reason the United States would win a war in Mexico.  The scale of a determined military capability eventually wins, even with a strong resistance, specifically because: (a) Ukraine is connected to a common border with Russia, and (b) the citizens in the eastern part of the country are aligned with Russia.

    True enough, but the citizens in the northern part of Mexico are not aligned with the United States, and certainly don't seek to be incorporated into it.  If anything, among the Hispanics in the Southwest, it would be the other way around --- the "Aztlan" concept.

    If I were Mexican, I'd probably want it back too.

  • From what I hear, Eastern Ukraine aligned more with Russia because there is more Russian television and less Ukrainian TV there. Especially in Donetsk and Luhansk, there are loads of people there who don't speak a word of Ukrainian.

    Especially given that fact.
