In 2004 the Baltic States were granted NATO membership. This put NATO on Russia’s border, something that was promised to never happen. Jame Baker assured Russia they would not pursue moving NATO eastward during meetings after the Berlin Wall fell. This secured Russia’s support for a united Germany.

In 2014 the US backed a coup of the democratically elected government. The new government was pro-west and this immediately caused chaos in Crimea and Donbass. Understandably Russia was not happy. Ukraine furthered the insult to Russia by cutting off the fresh water supply to Crimea.

This history needs to be understood to cut through the Western bias of most news sources. The West cannot act like they are blameless in the Ukrainian conflict.

Jumping forward a bit, we see Putin emboldened by what he perceives a weakened state of Western Nations. When Biden took office he took steps that made America dependent foreign oil again. Biden stopping the XL Pipeline and killing federal drilling leases was a huge blow to American oil independence. Meanwhile Biden also gave the green light to the Nord Steam 2 pipeline. Weakening the West and giving strength to Putin (something Trump warned about (youtu.be))

Now Putin did guess wrong at the West’s response to his invasion. He had to have thought he had Germany by the balls and they would continue to buy his natural gas. Surprisingly Germany had other ideas. Putin also likely did not think Biden’s Administration would risk rising oil prices by making meaningful sanctions.

Where do we go from here?

It is a bad situation on all sides. The US should stay out of it. America has already sent Ukraine over $1 Billion dollars. Dollars that could be better used at home. America needs to focus on energy independence again. Higher oil prices benefit Russia and hurt the US economy. You have to ask why we are allowing that?

The question isn’t what we should do to Russia, the question is why should we care? We never should have gotten involved in 2014 or allowed NATO expansion in 2004. We created this mess and now we bitch about Russia responding. It’s just more NeoCon bullshit if you ask me.

Oh, I should have also added - Not only did they outlaw the Russian language, Russian language schools, etc. They removed all ethnic Russian judges, politicians, government officials, etc. They called it "Lustration". Lustration was done at the fall of the Soviet Union. Break away countries imprisoned, deported anyone who worked for the Communist party. Including (but not limited to) politicians, judges, and police.

But on the other hand, Ukrainians just wanted Ukraine for the Ukrainians. Without foreign influence. So can you blame them? Maybe they went about it the wrong way, but Ukraine should be for the Ukrainians.

To go into more detail - During Soviet times, they moved people around in order to make areas more diverse and less likely to unite and rise up against the Union. For example, by the fall of the Soviet Union, native Latvians represented only 52% of the population of their own country. In Estonia, the figure was 62%. Kazakhstan is only 30% Kazakh.

In Ukraine, they moved out Ukrainians and moved in Russians. Over time, all the ethnic Russians moved to cities/areas with more Russians, and the ethnic Ukrainians moved to areas more populated by Ukrainians. That's why Eastern Ukraine and Crimea are 70-80% ethnic Russian.

So should Ukrainians get to keep all of their homeland, or should they have to give up chunks of it to immigrants?

Also, that article about Khazaria 2.0 was written back in 2014. The path to their goal might change, but the end goal stays the same. Seize control of Ukraine, and make room for Jews who will freeload off of (what's left of) the Ukrainians.
