What's the point of the referendum if the parliament has already decided it?

[Suede]

Soo... referandum is bad, because majority of Crimea citizens have different views that you are? Isn't it an idea of referendum? That majority (pro-Russian in this case) will decide?

It is illegal, Crimean parliament just didn't have the rights according to constitution to make any referendum.

Why is the world sitting by watching a re-run of the Anschluss of Austria and not doing anything...

[Duuring]

Cos Russia is powerful and nobody wants a war.

Exactly how it was in 1938. We need to learn from our mistakes and stop it here.

By the looks of it Russia overall did not learn from the fall of the soviet union.. Soo good luck with learning anything even older than that.

Please, stop comparing Vladimir Putin to Hitler. As far as I know, Putin isn't sick murderer who's going to gas or shoot all Ukrainians. And then all Poles. And Germans. And whole world! Jawohl! Hitler wasn't evil because he started war with other country, he was evil because he wanted to murded half of human population. Putin is just president of country and is doing his best to make his country stronger. As long as he's not going to kill everyone who's not Russian or Slav you don't have right to compare him with Hitler. It's just normal war/intervention/invasion. County leaders were always using war to make their country stronger. 21st century isn't different in any way.

Yeah, Putin isn't evil. He's just a lying imperialistic asshat.

Why did you make some random words in my post bolder?

Because i saw the odd similarities between Putin and Hitler. He was just a president of a country, trying to make his country stronger via war/intervention/diplomacy which was considered completly normal back then. Nobody knew he was going to exterminate polacks, jews and wage war on all of Europe.

So i'm simply telling you, wait and see.

First of all, we're Poles, not polocks. But maybe it's simply too difficult to you to show at least a bit of respect to your interlocutor...
Secondly, right, because Hitler before 1 September 1939 was like little sweet lamb and for sure was not claiming that Germans are best nation in the world and should rule the world and crash every other nation. But maybe you didn't notice that part of my post?

The kremlin is known to support Neo Facistic groups in Russia.

When Hitler organized the Olympic games, that's exactly what he tried to show people.

It's just normal war/intervention/invasion.

Are you serious? 'just a normal war' ?

Well didn't know you found 'polacks' offensive, in Swedish the people of Poland are 'Polacker', didn't know it had negative connotations in English.

Furthermore, you do realise that Vladimir Putin is a Fascist dicator that promotes ultra-nationalism and allows Neo-Nazi groups and their violence. While Putin is not quite yet of the same calibre as Mr. Hitler, if we allow him to get away with disregarding other nations sovereignity while making his own Russian Empire stronger, who knows how long it will take him to be capable of committing the same crimes as Hitler. He needs to be put in his place now, lest we want to threaten the existance, independence and livelyhood of all European nations.

Not neccesarily Putin is bound to turn out like Hitler, but as it is going now he is showing good progress in his steps to becoming his idol.
