Putin on the Ukraine


This night for the first time, Ukrainian regular soldiers fired on our territory. Since 5:45 A.M. we have been returning the fire, and from now on bombs will be met by bombs. Whoever fights with poison gas will be fought with poison gas. Whoever departs from the rules of humane warfare can only expect that we shall do the same. I will continue this struggle, no matter against whom, until Russia’s safety and its rights are secured.

N.S.: Well, not exactly Putin on the Ukraine, but close enough.

That was actually a slightly altered excerpt of a speech some other dictator gave on September 1, 1939.

Hmmmm? Who said that. A. Hitler? OH sure, I remember now. We are under attack. We must defend ourselves.
