In reply to the discussion: The Putin Contingent on DU: WTF? [View all]Dems to Win
(2,161 posts)I greatly appreciate his efforts to report the truth of the Ukraine situation.
quote from the link you provide:
Yet, the once-acknowledged though soon forgotten reality was that the crisis was provoked last year by the European Union proposing an association agreement with Ukraine while U.S. neocons and other hawkish politicos and pundits envisioned using the Ukraine gambit as a way to undermine Putin inside Russia.
The plan was even announced by U.S. neocons such as National Endowment for Democracy President Carl Gershman who took to the op-ed page of the Washington Post nearly a year ago to call Ukraine the biggest prize and an important interim step toward eventually toppling Putin in Russia.

Nope, I don't see any Pootie-love in that link. Quoting real editorials published in the Washington Post and directing our attention to the actions of the EU looks like a journalist / columnist doing his job.
This is my last post in this pointless thread. I'm going to do my part to let it fade into oblivion.
