There are two kinds of problems in the world - theirs and ours. This is clearly one of theirs.

We are sorely lacking in money, allies, a clear and present nat. sec. threat and political will to be getting involved in Russia's backyard. Ukraine can want to be western all they want, and we should welcome it. But until they have allies in Europe who are willing and able to enforce their demands on Russia, we need to STF out of it.
