As far as Secretary of State Kerry is concerned:

  • It's all right for anti Russian protesters to stage violent demonstrations and occupy buildings to protest the former Ukrainian government, but not all right for pro Russian Ukrainians to stage non violent demonstrations and occupy buildings to seek independence from the the current government.
  • It's all right for the United States to invade Iraq without any cause, but not all right for Russia to accept the Crimea's non violent protests and super majority vote to return to Russia.
  • It's all right for the United States to spend $5 billion to destabilize the government of the Ukraine in order to create an anti-Russian government, but not all right for Russia to resist.

This is beyond ridiculous. Kerry's hypocrisy and President Barack Obama's magical red lines are stripping all credibility away from the administration and their European Union puppets.

It may be too much to ask to be delivered from evil but, please, spare us the double standards so common they are now simply banal.
