Arizona U.S. Sen. John McCain said something on CBS’s “Face the Nation” Sunday about the U.S.’s handling of the ongoing standoff between Russia and Ukraine that surprised host Bob Schieffer. “I’m ashamed of my country, I’m ashamed of my president and I’m ashamed of myself that I haven’t done more to help these people,” McCain said. “It is really, really heartbreaking.” McCain was expressing his frustration with how the U.S. and major European powers like France and Germany have failed to stop Russian president Vladimir Putin’s advance on Ukraine. “I believe that German chancellor and president of France legitimized for the first time in 70 years the dismemberment of a country in Europe. It’s shameful. Vladimir Putin has not paid any price,” McCain said. McCain supports providing weapons to Ukraine to help fight against the Russians and pro-Russian separatists. The Ukranians “are not asking for American boots on the ground, but merely weapons to defend themselves against the Russian onslaught,” McCain said. “Vladimir Putin wants Ukraine not to be part of Europe, and he is succeeding in doing so,” McCain continued, adding “this is really a dark chapter in the history of our alliance.” Schieffer circled back to McCain’s comments about being ashamed because of the U.S.’s failure to intervene, expressing just how surprised he was to hear the Republican say that. “I’ll say this, senator, I’ve known you for a long, long time, interviewed you many, many times, and I’ve never heard you say I’m ashamed of my country, which you just said,” said Shieffer. “And I’m ashamed of myself,” McCain responded.

You have plenty to be ashamed of you old cs. People like you and the Kenyan are responsible for the shape the country is in.
McStain is every bit the self-absorbed asshole that we think he is: Make-Believe Maverick A closer look at the life and career of John McCain reveals a disturbing record of recklessness and dishonesty
To understand the viewpoint of the Ukrainians, it is helpful to read and view the past, something which many of them still recall. In 1933/34 Russians had certain horrible deaths for the Ukrainians that refused to give up their homes and farms. Millions perished, here are two ways the Russians enjoyed, just two. Slice open their stomachs, pull out there small intestine, nail it to a pole, and then whip them to make them run around the pole. Another, gouge out their eyeballs, and turn them loose. Those are but two pastimes the Russians used. It is all there for anyone to see, to read, if they care too.
And to think: Americans funded the revolution and then supported Stalin in the war. Who's worse? The enablers or the perpetrators? We sit back in relative ease (250,000 killed vs. millions) while the Russians do what you described above to the German people, and then we claim the victory. Maybe Americans think they're culturally superior, although they financed or supplied much of the mayhem in the 20th century. Freedom though, what glorious freedom we have had!
I should have added that those years that the Ukrainians were being slaughtered, Putins Grandfather was working in the Kremlin for Stalin. Just an added thought.
And Stalin came to power on a revolution paid for by American and UK bankers. I'll note that Jews run this country too. Why weren't we capable of stopping what we helped start over there when it happened to us? I see no moral high ground here. Only self-delusion.
There is only survival.
That would have been easy compared to what we've done. In fact, what we've done has locked in our ethnic collapse.
