UKRAINE BUSINESS, can America be taken seriously when no oil is involved for her?

have you ever noticed how Americans are liars? Unless you're actually WORKING with an American, in business, making something, some kind of WORK, forget about it; americans are some of the biggest liars in the world...........and if you've ever wondered how americans can have such a low opinion of their politicians and think that their politicians are such liars (in this they concur with Benji's ideas, although they don't see themselves as liars); or if you've ever wondered if the politicians are able to lie and are just mistaken thanks to an incompetent media that is fixated on dog grooming stories, then this Ukraine business is PERFECT opportunity to study

in fact, i am about to begin a work-week of four days today and i normally like to listen to fox news about 6-10 hours during these 48 hours of work, however, with this Ukraine business, i won't be able to, because i KNOW that they will start LYING.......it's very simple....... they're ALREADY lying about committing war crimes and genocide in Iraq for the sake of controlling the world's second biggest oil reserve at a time when global oil stocks are being depleted and people would do well to stock up on seeds, beans, guns and water. But now they will start telling the most ridiculous lies and assuming the most ridiculous postures over Ukraine. Normally they like to adopt a silent position on glaring issues, like peak oil, but here they most likely will not stay silent but use it instead to start the most distasteful kind of moralizing, beginning with the catholic brainwashee o'reilly who we suspect was sexually abused by some kind of priest or nun which would account for everything

The Americans don't think twice about acting at will in 'their backyard' (EVERYWHERE SOUTH OF TEXAS that is SMALL ENOUGH not to offer any substantial resistance - so little countries like Honduras/ Guatamala, etc); but have a problem with Russia walking into a country that used to belong to them, where their own citizens of their own ethnicity come out on the streets waving russian flags!  The Americans have a problem with this?

I'm purely interested in the American psychology of its leaders and media, as a case study for lying and how it works.  Some of the media and politicians would know their position is absurd to an extreme, others, perhaps tired from too much partying, would just go along with the official line, not really knowing what's going on; and the ones 'knowing' what's going on, possibly don't really either.

Collective amnesia/doubletalk: this is best summarized by the Iraq war example above. It's actually amazing how a hypocrite has its buttons pressed by seeing something that offends it: this is a perfect example. The Ukraine thing is a relatively small matter, but it presses the buttons of the hypocrites in washington dc, western europe and the medium there, as without seeing themselves for the liars and suckers they've been for over a decade in Iraq; still, on the inside they ARE this and therefore their indignation is aroused by the Ukraine thing: it's a classic example of hypocrisy 101

I think Putin would do well to explain his nation's interests in what they're doing - make a televised speech or something
