Washington (AFP) – US Secretary of State John Kerry will travel to Kiev this week in a show of support for the embattled leadership, as Washington and its allies slammed Moscow for violating Ukraine’s sovereignty.
The Crimea has seen its full share of wars, progroms, forced displacements and ethnic cleansing. It has been “ceded” to Ukraine since 1954. And now, as the Ottomans once allied with France and the UK against Russia, the Neo-Nazis of Ukraine are finding allies among the US, NATO and the EU (G-7).
But Crimea contains 60% Russians!
With apologies to Alfred, Lord Tennyson:
Half a step, half a brain,
Half a plan given,
All into the valley of Fools
Rode the G-seven.
“Forward, the Light Brigade!
“It’s for Democracy” he said:
Into the valley of Fools
Rode the G-seven!
“Forward, the Light Brigade!”
Was there no one dismayed?
Tho’ every single member knew
He had no discretion:
Barack Obama had made reply
Kerry had his own fish to fry
Theirs not to question why,
As into the valley of Fools
Rode the G-seven!
