    No.

    The Ukrainian president elected by Crimeans was overthrown.

    Russia didn't invade Crimea.

    Russia occupied Crimea and then declared it annexed. Not a false parallel.

    If Russia--by going in and helping Crimea protect itself against greater Ukraine--could be considered as "occupying" it, then the United States is now occupying Ukraine.

    You simply have no clue as to what happened there. Words and terms mean something.

    Crimea was part of Ukraine. Like California is part of the United States. Do you really not know this? Russia going in and "helping" Crime protect itself against Ukraine is the same as Mexico going on and helping California "protect" itself against the United States. After, of course, seeding California with illegal Mexicans.

    Do you really not know this - or are you pretending on a Saturday?

    Can we speed that process up? I am tired of waiting for the Big One to solve a lot of the countries problems

    Well then Mexico going into CA to protect it's citizens which are here illegally would be OK too, At least I would think so.
