It's so typical- pro-Russian Ukraine - " very good move for both Russia and Ukraina" , "great future", Slavic brotherhood, happines ... etc. Pro - American Ukraine is evil, horrible, puppets, death, misery, discrimination etc. Kihnu- "NATO and America set their sights on bringing the former USSR republics and Warsaw Pact nations under their influence by sponsoring and supporting various politicians and political movements (so-called "color revolutions") favorable to the West.Their prime targets were always Poland and Ukraine." Since 1776 Polish–American relations have been very good. Poland is one of the most stable European allies of the United States. Communist government installed in Warsaw by the Soviet government in 1945 was anti-American, but Polish people have unofficially always considered United States a friendly power, and the Soviet Union an occupant. Yes, USA/NATO/Vatican provided funds, equipment and advice to the Solidarity but it was spontanic patriotic movement - united some 10 million members and vastly contributed to the fall of communism. Ukraine, Belarus, Caucas, Baltic countries were targets and Poland in 1989 was again (after WW2) Western-style liberal democratic state. I think that Poland is tradicionally pro-Western country. Ukraine is now divided country. Belarus is authoritarian regime- pro Venezuelian :). Baltics countries are pro-Western. Geoergia is pro-Western. Armenia is pro-Russian and Azerbaijan is neutral.

Well said, Kihnu! If the "free press" of countries in the U.S-led alliance of global aggression were free to make such statements, their credibility would grow and so might their readership. But the press and other media are not free... To write as you do is not being "anti-American". Nor do your comments show "paranoia", or "self-hatred" or "conspiracy theory". These are terms of abuse that have been taught to American correspondents, and repeated by pseudo intellectuals, for the past four decades. They have passed their date of credibility. I have changed the parameters from "America" to "U.S.-led alliance" to convey the immensity of the undeclared wars waged by the U.S.and its allies against peoples since 1946. You have outlined the more recent outrages. The U.S. has coerced, bribed or terrorized nations from Africa to Australia, from Europe to South Korea, into these sordid and murderous alliances. And the process continues, now in Africa and Central Asia. These U.S.-led alliances always have a military basis or component. They are in continuous secret or overt action. They are always destructive power being unleashed against helpless peoples whose resources or geo-strategic position the U.S. covets. Diplomacy, especially in the current Russian style, represents civilized values. Now, as in the past, it confronts barbarism. Didn't George Bernard Shaw once say that the United States is the only country to have gone from primitivism to decadence without passing through a stage of civilization?
