Is this supposed to make it OK for the USA to fund and implement an insurrection?
Remember, Dave: this a straw man argument that you created in your head. You keep assuming it's true and using it as a foundation for your arguments, but it's important to remember that you just made it up.

There wasn't a talking point in that post. I was just reminding you that your argument is based upon your unsupported supposition. Is that just something you randomly say when responding to someone? You're assuming things and then arguing from that assumption, just keep that in mind.Talking points noted

There is plenty of historical precedent of CIA involvement in the over throw other governments. Chili, Nicauraga, Guatemala (Iran-Contra), Afganistan just to name a few. The US and Russia have fought wars by proxy since WW2. So I don't think it's too much of a stretch to think that there might be CIA involvement in the Ukraine protests.

Swallow the turd, bubby. You've been wrong on this matter since day one. If you have something to prove, provide links.
...I don't have to prove anything? I'm just pointing out that you're basing your argument on an assumption. I've reminded you of this for a few pages now. If you want to base everything on assumptions, that's fine. Not my preferred method but if you wanna do it, that's on you. I'm just making sure to mention it, since you refuse to.
No links. Same as always. No links. Stop spouting gov't propaganda and try reality. Did you know that ambassador killed in Libya was a CIA spy. Obama's first job out of college with a CIA front company. Mena, Arkansas, CIA operation starring GWHBush, Billy Clintooon, Hilary Clinton, Oliver North, Terry Reed, BCCI, Noriega, and all with curious levels of deniability.
I understand all that, extremely well. But that doesn't prove anything. Beside that, Dave isn't saying the CIA might have been involved, he's saying they were involved. He's presenting it as fact and basing his argument upon it.
No links what? Proving a negative? Oooookay, Dave. lol
It doesn't not prove anything, either.
Dave has historical precendent of previous CIA covert actions on his side....you have ear plugs.

I've never heard of them but their webpage says they are US "friendship" organization. So what are they doing at the protests in Kiev dressed like swat team?

CIA drone brigade in Ukraine. My bold and underline.
US Drone "Intercepted" Over Crimea By Russian 'Self-Defense' Forces | Zero Hedge
"An American scout-attack drone was intercepted in the Crimean sky, the Rostec state corporation reports. "Judging by side marking, the MQ-5B drone was part of the 66th US brigade of military intelligence with the main location in Bavaria," the report on the website of the corporation reads.
According to the report, at the beginning of March, the American brigade was relocated to the Ukrainian Kirovohrad, from where drones commit reconnaissance raids in the direction of Crimea and Russian border areas.

And yet even if it's true, it still wouldn't prove that the US created a coup. It would prove that the current Ukrainian government, however, invited US support. Great investigative work, Dave! It's too bad it has nothing to do with what you were trying to say.
Nuland proved that the USA provoked a coup. This CIA operated, and the CIA operates the drones, has aircraft and support within the borders of Ukraine. That's invasion, like you stated about Crimea. There is no legitimate Gov't operating in Ukriane. The drones must follow boots on the ground to have an operating base, ergo were already in Ukraine. Of course, you know that, but are required to spout the Gov't line. You have my sympathy. Must be hard for anyone with half a brain.
Ukraine's state security service on Saturday said it was not investigating the bugging of a phone call between U.S. diplomats in which they weighed up which opposition leaders they should back for government in a reformed Ukraine.
U.S. diplomats tried to limit the damage on Friday after audio of the phone conversation was posted on the Internet. In it, Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland was heard using an expletive in reference to the European Union.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel, already furious with Washington over reports that U.S. officials bugged her own phone, found Nuland's remarks "totally unacceptable", her spokeswoman said.
Nuland has been Washington's point person on Ukraine since a crisis broke in the former Soviet republic last November, bringing thousands of protesters out onto the streets of Kiev.
Though Moscow has done plenty of economic arm-twisting in its geopolitical tug-of-war with the European Union over Ukraine's allegiance, Russian leaders have on the whole kept unusually quiet as pro-Europe demonstrators blocked the central streets of Kiev over the past two weeks, barricading government buildings and setting up a tent city on Independence Square.
Moscow's wait-and-see approach is a big departure from the Orange Revolution of 2004, when Vladimir Putin reacted to a similar outpouring of pro-Western sentiment by personally and repeatedly voicing support for the eastward-leaning countercurrent.
In contrast, US and European officials have shuttled through Kiev to scold the democratically elected government of Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych and often to schmooze with the protesters on Independence Square. On Wednesday, US Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland handed out cookies and bread to cheering protesters.
Ms. Nuland told reporters that she'd had a "tough but realistic" conversation with Mr. Yanukovych and believed it was possible to save Ukraine's "European future" if the Ukrainian president showed "leadership."
State Department spokesperson Jen Psaki suggested the US might even impose sanctions on Ukraine, while the US government-funded think tank Freedom House called upon Yanukovych to resign and set early elections as "the only non-violent way to end the standoff with demonstrators."
And German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle toured the Independence Square protest camp with two opposition leaders and declared that "Ukraine should be on board with Europe."
All this prompted Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov to slam what he described as Western officials' out-of-line behavior Friday.
"Some of the comments that have been made by American officials over the last few days are shocking," Mr. Ryabkov said. "They are not even recommendations but bigoted demands that are put before the Ukrainian leadership, demands whose sharp wording reflects both a political course that we understand quite well and a certain play of emotions."
Or maybe the Right Sector live in western pro-Ukraine and traveled to eastern pro-Russian Ukraine to cause trouble.
Since you live in Florida then you must have heard of the Brooks Brother Riot.
I usually don't.
a. Unique view, yeah sure.
b. I think you need to re-read this sentence in the post you were responding to:
I do not agree with that as their coverage is far from being unbiased, and moreover it suffers from a very poor analysis (if they analyse it at all) of the situation on the ground, as I explained in my previous post.
Not only that these videos don't present "raw" data but cut outs that fit a certain narrative, they also don't even try to properly analyse the data they do have/present creating a distorted image of what is happening on the ground, which helps one to "make up his own mind".
Imo you can keep posting whatever you want :shrug:, I am also free to call bs on it.
Fallen.
I don't think supporting far right extremists is a good thing to do. It didn't work for Chamberlin. If the interim government can keep the extremists at bay until a fair election is held in May....then we'll see. Until then, I think we will be seeing a lot more clashes and riots in Ukraine.
Strawman. If you had a good arguement you wouldn't need to resort to such low brow tactics.
Okay, thank for the report from infowars.com. In the real world, though, to say something has been proven requires...ya know, proof.
All you do is assume, Dave. It's not a big deal, because you're not in a position of power, but it would be catastrophic if you were.
