   > As somebody who used to support Vladimir Putin, I am infuriated at what he   
   has been doing in Ukraine. The Ukrainian people have done nothing to deserve   
   what is happening to them. However that is not where the matter ends.

   > In 1985, the Soviet leadership elected a noble-minded leader named Mikhail   
   Gorbachev. He tried to make the place more democratic and more humane. In 1991   
   the Communist hardliners put him under house arrest. The people poured into   
   the Red Square; the    
   hardliners sent in tanks; however the military refused the orders to shoot at   
   the people. The Soviet military made a noble and righteous decision. And the   
   reward for their nobility has been their country plundered and its people   
   treated like dirt.

   > Has the world failed to learn anything from the Second World War? The lesson   
   is that you don’t humiliate a proud country. What Putin has been doing in   
   Ukraine has been just as wrong as what Hitler had done. But he has support of   
   people who are in no    
   way evil; who have seen their country dragged through the dirt and who are   
   correctly angry at what has happened to their country.   
      
   Typical Russian: blame other people for your own wrong doings and   
   failings. Russias problems are not our fault, but completely of domestic   
   origin.
