[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get my news and information from many sources, but as a progressive I am infuriated by what I read and hear in the "alternative" left press, blogs and Twittersphere.  To here then tell it, we cannot arm Ukraine and provide them with a means of self defense because:  1) that supports U.S. imperialism and the military-industrial complex; 2) the U.S. and NATO precipitated this war by not respecting Russia's, i.e. Putin's "legitimate security concerns; 3) Ukraine is a state full of Nazis and we cannot arm Nazis; and 4) that arming Ukraine will only prolong the conflict and lead to countless needless civilian deaths. They also call for a "diplomatic" solutions. But what is that solution?   Added to this is the complete lack of attention paid to what the East European and Ukrainian left are saying:  stop westplaining and give us what we need to fight Russian imperialism.  This is a Spanish Civil War moment.  There is moral clarity in Ukraine's fight for freedom.  And either the progressive left is with Ukraine and its struggle to survive or it is a Putin accomplice.  Putin has clearly outlined in an RIA-Novosti piece wjhat he intends to do in those areas of Ukraine he can occupy:  crush Ukrainian culture and nationality; kill and/or deport those he sees a Nazis (basically the whole of the Ukrainian population.[/quote]
