the russian theft of ukraine

Russian President Vladimir Putin's attempts to drag Russia back to a Sovietised Cold War posture by subverting free nations on its borders are reaching a new zenith this week as his KGB operatives move to copperfasten the reconquest of the free independent nation of Ukraine by jailing on trumped up charges Julia Timoshenko, the legitimate President of that country..
The new Russian conquest of Ukraine has been carried out by the foulest subterfuge.
An ethnic Russian gangster has been appointed President of Ukraine using gerrymandered electoral results.
The legitimate President of Ukraine Ms Julia Timoshenko has been spuriously thrown in jail after a circus like show trial.
The Russian KGB has long experience of stealing elections in this way.
Why on earth would anyone think they'd stopped doing it now?
Look.
An ethnic Russian gangster has been deemed to have won the Ukrainian elections. This in a country that has sought for five centuries to break the link with Russia.
It's not rocket science.
So President Putin is laughing all his way to World War Three.
By the way, Putin is President of Russia in all but name and I insist on referring to him as such.
I have done so throughout the proxy presidency of Dmitri Medvedev.
Yes.
Putin's actions in Ukraine do indeed amount to yet another coup d'etat.
(His other recent coups d'etat involve mass assassinations in Poland, gerrymanderings in Belarus and the sponsorship and imposition of separatist break away regions in Georgia.)
Putin's coup against Ukraine began with the gerrymandered elections a few months ago which resulted in the aforementioned ethnic Russian gangster Mr Yanukovich being appointed President of Ukraine.
The final seal on this renewed Russian theft of the Ukrainian nation has come with the imprisonment this week of the aforementioned rightful President of Ukraine Miss Julia Timoshenko.
The trumped up charges against Miss Timoshenko were particularly egregious.
The charges falsely claimed she had encouraged improper ties with Russia in paying an excessive price to the Russians for winter gas supplies.
The irony is screaming.
You see how the KGB works?
She is being imprisoned by Russia's agents in Ukraine.
But the false charges against her accuse her of betraying Ukraine to Russia.
Can you smell the sulphur?
President Putin's government joined the European Union this week in criticising the imprisonment of Miss Timoshenko.
This is Putin's idea of covering his tracks.
It fools no one with even a modicum of analytical intellect.
But it fools everyone in CNN, Sky News and the United Nations.
These fools are the fools who want to be fooled.
So after a bare decade of freedom, Ukraine has been reabsorbed into Putin's resovietised Russia.
And lo!
United States President Barack Obama has just announced that he will work with Mr Putin if Mr Putin becomes President of Russia for a third time.
There was no need for an announcement Barack.
We knew it all along.
As did Putin.
