Generally terrorists start out as freedom fighters, but the main difference is that terrorists view the collateral civilian damage as a victory is getting their point across while revolutionary freedom fighters target the specific purveyors of the perceived injustice and abhor collateral civilian losses.

Druids: Well nope, people do think of him as a dictator. There were widespread allegations of rigging every single time he won, and people were jailed for speaking up. Remember Pussy Riot?

And this conspiracy theory has been there ever since Yanukovich fled. That the protests were engineered by the NATO-supported Svoboda party. But hell, if that is true, then its also true that Yanukovich was a Russian stooge. And presently Russia-supported rebels are wrecking havoc in Eastern Ukraine.

Plus the missile shield in Eastern Europe is scaring the shite out of Russia...they're now resorting to threatening nations like Denmark. 😆 Both NATO and Russia are engaged in a game of "sphere of influence", nobody's a saint here.

But Putin is a strongman, period.

There are two versions to any story. You choose to believe one, I the other.

AIP#C and Amreeka have no right to point fingers at Putin after everything they've done in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria.

Same way Russia has no right to point fingers at the US after what they did in South Ossetia and Crimea. And btw, nothing justifies being a murderous dictator. Google Anna Politkovskaya.

I thoroughly enjoyed being the negative to your "abstract". 😆
