I listed to a Dan Carlin Common Sense podcast yesterday where he talks about the Ukrainian crisis at length and I could feel my mind slipping because he basically lays it all down at the foot of the US/EU/NATO. By throwing support behind the anti-Yanukovych movements and expanding NATO into the Baltic states, the West 'poked the Bear' and so this is all something that the West deserves because of course the US would react in a similar manner if someone did something like this in Mexico (and assuming Mexico has the same relative history as Ukraine does relative to Russia). I can understand the NATO-expanding-into-the-Baltic part, but a lot of it felt like handwaving away Putin being a bastard and now I don't really know what to think.
