For a person to believe that the article above is NOT in fact the product of the Putin propaganda machine. You believe it to be, quite obviously, and I suspect it likely is as well. The matter has not been proven however.

I propose to you a scenario in which Koko knows that Putin has nefarious intent, just as you or I do, and yet ALSO believes that there were those within the protest on the Maidan capable of employing less than honorable methods to achieve their goals much as Putin would. Is that really so implausible to you that you have to start calling her names?
