    Mr Mush Brain says mushbrained thing.
    He’ll be dead soon enough, and so will Putin.
    Yes they’re not the only awful people that want to play the big nasty man, but we can hope for a more stable and peaceful world.
    We can at least hope for sense to prevail.

          1. A war of liberation is not a war of aggression. He didn’t start the war. He’s ending it. It’s a two-partial-nations-in-one-country civil war that he’s now splitting off from the part that demanded secession with Ukraine and acession with Russia, since they’re Russian Ukrainians and don’t want to join an anti-Russia alliance.
          2. This was a private military contracter who just failed a coup attempt for a military junta made from his own private army, and a product of the libertarian period of Russia that’s being reigned in. He should have been arrested legally for doing so, but in this case that probably was considered too risky in terms of consequences. In any case, it’s a much better idea than putting such a figure next to the president’s chair as a kind of mayor of the palace.

            While I am also critical of the western media propaganda, labeling this as a war of liberation is simply plain wrong. This sort of logic US used when it was trying to ‘liberate’ countries like Vietnam, Nicaragua, Korea, Iraq, Afghanistan etc. It is a war of Russian aggression in response to stupid Western provocation. Reverting the stable Minsk 2 agreement was a US led effort.
