And what about the other observers? And what about the ~10 first-hand reports of Ukrainian (!) friends I have received? They surely are no Putin wannabes! It was very calm before, during and after the referendum!
The ones who on camera claimed that they had not seen any military in crimea? Completely ignoring thousands upon thousands of videos proving them wrong. And your friends are irrelevant. It was so calm that peacefull supporters of Ukraine were beaten. On camera. And murdered. Press continously harrassed and items seized just like any "democratic" paradise. Peacefull my ass.

I think we are in 1938/39 all over again.. so the question is what do we do.
let him make his move or move against him.
Just waiting for him to set up the gas chambers to eructate all the gays... seems he is on that path...rather eerie of how it all seems to mirror Germany 1938...

That seems all too likely doesn't it?
The EU seems, from this outsiders perspective, terrified of Putin.

What's your opinion on Gary Kasparov... a man who has never worked for Putin,
has no axe to grind other than his experience of living in Russia under Putin's regime.
Now one things for sure here.. Gary Kasparov is a Grand master chess player arguably the
Worlds best ever player.. so I am sure he has used reason and logic coming to his conclusions
about Vladimir Putin.
He is one of the leading voices on the removal of Putin.
Go and find what Kasparov and his friends have to say about the billions that Putin has amassed
and whether or not Putin is a Dictator or not.
People get branded a supporter when they defend the actions of the person .. by any definition that is supporting them.
