One would think that the Yank's protesting the Ruskies taking back the Crimea - well, it was only given to Ukraine in 1954 as a pressie from that UN shoe banging peasant, Khrushchev - is a tad hypocritical? Given that the Yank penchant for taking land from the legitimate occupiers a.k.a. the various native tribes - was not exactly kosher.
It wasn't as if the continent only had 60 million buffalo chewing the cud. And if I remember correctly, didn't every U.S. administration break every treaty they themselves had written and signed with the indigenous peoples?
Strikes me that Mr Putin has at least a historical claim to the Crimea, as the Russians have been there since 1783. Forget all the geo-political bollocks; the charlatan Obama and Clown Kerry should just butt out.
Perhaps Obama in his twilight months could find something to do that he's really swell at; like drawing red lines.
