No, it is quite likely that the coup in Ukraine was instigated and organized by U.S. interests. ... This, of course, is called Empire
I staked out a stronger position than I actually hold,
A wise, wise move to back down from your position, untenable as it was. Take a lesson from my own immense humility.
a hopefully forgivable mistake
That mistake is forgivable. As is reminding you of my humility.
in response to Zenaan's black-and-white "Russia good, US evil" propagandizing.
Misrepresentation. False generalisation. USA very bad, and a dying dragon. Russia a nation almost back on her feet, lead by a man of integrity and care for her people. "Russian" principles (principles of the "true Russian human" as opposed to "Russia the nation") are actually evident in not only the words, but also the deeds of the Russian power brokers - in particular internationally. The multi polar world is an inherently more stable world that an empire with a very small circle of "elites" at the helm. Your failure to bring empathy and depth of comprehension (in your words) of the despotism of the USA empire, is not so forgivable.
Thanks for the thoughtful response.
Ack, thank you Steve.
