I found the following explanation on Postcards from Paris & Elsewhere
"Recently, I read this interpretation of what might have caused the present problems in the Ukraine, somewhere on the internet. I have lost the source to this story but have the feeling that it was not in the mainstream media, since it obviously does not follow the official, uno-voce narrative colported by the West. All things considered though, I think it's not a bad explanation."
Story of a Marriage Gone Sour
"More than 20 years ago Ukraine divorced her husband Russia.
This marriage had children.
The husband (Russia) was generous and left his wife a large inheritance, and even paid his wife's debts - $ 200 billion.
After parting, the wife began to flirt with a village bully (USA) and a gang of robbers (NATO).
The wife began to listen only to their opinion, and began to attack her ex-husband with them.
Then the husband got angry and took one child from her by force - Crimea.
Then the furious wife said that she would marry NATO in order to force her ex-husband to return Crimea.
However, the village bully (USA) did not want to marry, and did not want to get into a fight with her ex-husband - Russia. But he planned with the help of Ukraine to humiliate her ex-husband - Russia.
The wife was a bad mother, and from time to time she beat her other children - Lugansk and Donetsk.
The children cried and sought help from their father, who from time to time helped the children financially and quarreled with his ex-wife.
But it was all to no avail...
The main bandit, who caused all this trouble, used this wife, wanting to get her wealth. He persuaded her to quarrel and gave her various gifts (uniforms, weapons, old equipment).
The wife decided that she had an intercessor whom she could rely on, and began to be impudent and provoke her ex-husband.
His patience snapped.
Together with his relative (Belarus), he began to fight for the protection of his offended children - Donetsk and Luhansk.
Then the ex-wife, along with the hooligans (EU and NATO), got scared.
The main bully (USA) now refused to actually fight her ex-husband, and left the wife alone with her ex-husband to sort out the mess.
The husband is now taking control of the children and property he left to his ex-wife."
That's funny. And pretty much explains it.
ReplyDeleteWhat most people don't understand is that "Ukraine" is not ancient nation with ancient traditions. It is a fairly recent creation, its borders over extended time have been fluid, and its current boundaries were set after the fall of the Soviet Union. The current government was the result of a coup led by the "village bully" using much the same techniques we saw them use in our own nation during the months leading up to our own "coup", some call the election of 2020.
IOW, those calling to go to war for "Ukraine" are actually calling to go to war for the illegitimate government installed via a coup by the invisible actors inflicted upon the Western world trying to usurp our government into the owg of powerful (but mostly invisible) financiers and bankers.
Thanks, but no thanks.
Read the statement of Vladimir Putin, in preface to his imminent invasion, and see if it doesn't make sense - and in line with your parable, above:

In his own words.
From what I am reading, the Ukrainian military and its core of Nazi units is utterly decimated, along with all the soldiers of fortune and invisible spooks sent to their doom by Western governments.
ReplyDeleteRussia has been developing itself as a serious nation since the collapse of the Soviet Union 30 years ago. America and the rest of the West, who thought "history was over", has been in decline during their subsequent 30 year self absorbed bender.
Like Russia did in the early '90's, it is time to admit we took a wrong turn, throw out the bums who did this to us and put our suffering nation back together again.
Aqua brings up a good point. The European boarders have been in a state of constant flux for hundreds of years so who can tell decisively what actual boarders are? An example, my great grandfather on my dads side came to America in the 1870s from the city of Danzig which was Prussia, later part of Germany and now its called Gdansk in Poland. Poland actually ceased as a nation for a while then reinvented as the duchy of Warsaw under Napoleon when Bonaparte tried to establish his own monarchical family and installed one of his relatives as duke. My father was ethnic German and my mother ethnic Polish but based on boarders all I can say for sure is I am middle European ancestry. As I said before I like Putin, he reminds me of the good qualities of Donald Trump, honest, tells you what he is thinking and loves his nation and wants to put that above all else. Zelensky on the other hand............scratch a Zelensky and you will find a Biden. Loved the analogy of the article, hit the nail on the head. LOL for some reason reminded me of Muddy Waters, the blues got pregnant and they named the baby rock and roll.
