    Then don't question my statement that the CIA was involved in the Ukraine when Bush Jr was in charge. Accept it as fact and move on with your life.

    What would be the motive of the CIA/U.S. to spark the revolt in the Ukraine? What do we gain?

    To keep Russia busy responding to it.



    We don't care about the response- it is the resources expended that matter.

    Missiles in Poland while retaining the high ground, increased funds for military and spy contractors, control of oil, halting BRIC, let's put it this way, what are the reasons they wouldn't be there?

    I have to go eat but I'll wait on your list.
    And if we should die tonight
    Then we should all die together
    Raise a glass of wine for the last time
    Calling out father, prepare as we will
    Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountain side
    Desolation comes upon the sky..

    Best answer so far.

    I would say it had to do with ejecting Yanukovych. Nothing else really makes sense to me.

    I never said the CIA was not in Ukraine when Bush was president. But he is not the president that removed Yanukovych is he? Can't you remain on topic just this once?

    We are dealing only with what took place this past February. Not when Bush was president.
