Crimea vs. Hawaii

[callmeslick]

......time to plan late winter vacations. Which should it be?

Oooooooh, such a nice tropical paradise, for American and other capitalists that is.The corporate takeover, excuse me, I mean annexation, of Hawaii in 1899 secured the sugar industry, specifically those known as the big five, a new main supply of sugar for the mainland markets. Want to bet the polynesians, who were indeginous to the island, or other hapless asian immigrants, were soon put to work as essentially company slaves, in order to cut all that sugar cane for those nice capitalists?

In my opinion, long been clear that the US wanted to seize the Crimea as well as Hawaii. But it did not. Therefore, the United States accused Russia of attacking the Crimea. This also did not work. Then the United States unleashed a civil war in Ukraine. And they again accused Russia of attacking the Ukraine. And even that plan did not work. All these conflicts have been created for one purpose only - that start a war with Russia.
When the United States became convinced that war with the help provocations for Russia useless, they began a large-scale economic war. Moreover, not sparing their countries of friends that they will get the big problems of economic sanctions against Russia. US general that more closely resembles not proud eagle, and chicken, which begins to cackle hysterically even if only sees the shadow fox.

We don't want Crimea. We just want the ability to pant a couple of military bases there just to keep an eye scary old Russia.

I was joking sigma, but maybe it's not so far from the truth.
