2. The neocons wanted to punish Putin for defying them on Syria
Obama unfortunately thought at least one of them was fit to serve in the State Department. She is PNAC Robert Kagan's wife Victoria Nuland. She bankrolled the coup against their elected President buy enticing the Eu banking elites with promises austerity.
Obama is doing their bidding, mostly because he is kind of clueless on foreign policy and just goes along with Washington Consensus.
Oh... I didn't see that one coming. I will count that under BUSSSSSSSHHHHHHHH!!!!

3. Iran.
They've been planning to undermine Western democracies for years, and now they have access to Chernobyl. We have evidence of the pro-Russian splinter groups working with Iranian intelligence to extract nuclear material from the buildings, seemingly to use in their nuclear program.
wait for it...

6. How did it start? the same way the mess in Northern Ireland started.
Way back, about 300 years ago, one of the tsars decided it'd be a jolly idea to colonise the Ukraine with ethnic Russians. This map tells you everything you need to know about that:
It's not a bad map. BUT- Stalin in the 1930s did the same thing- a bit better. Hilter did a great job at it in the 40s. Stalin finished it up in the 50s.

My mother's family had been in the Kiev area for 500 years. Between Hitler and Stalin? All gone.
Luhansk and Donetsk are the two separatist regions in the east, where the percentage of native Ukrainian-language speakers is under 50%.

8. Not so simple
The Ukraine was a part of greater Russia from medieval times, longer than the US has existed.

10. Well now that everyone is born in places where they dont' belong
what do you propose be done. Most Americans don't belong here. Most Israelis don't belong in Israel, which is the prime concern of most anti-putin Hawks! Do you propose ethnic cleansing, after generations and generations?
The whole thing melts down into smelly name calling- DUmpmonkiez flinging poo, as they are want to do...

Geezuz.
The primitives don't know any more about Ukraine than a pig does about Christmas.
<<<thinks primitives should stick to discussing things they know something about.

Even though the option is there, I can't bring myself to select it, because there were reports of some actual repression of Jews going on in the Ukraine. So, I selected "Putin."

I went with BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSSSH!! Because MIHOP is happening again that's why!!
