All the elements of left analysis of Ukraine decanted: Crafty Clinton Satanic McCain Fascism rugose and triumphant in Kiev Appearntly everything was going swimmingly for workers and farmers of Ukraine until two months ago. And... Yanukovych would still be in office today if he had only told protestors how bad the EU treaty would be. (At least some acknowledgment is made of Ukraines centuries of national oppression.

Article ends with this orgy of petty bourgeois hopelessness: Ukraine demonstrates in bold relief that oppression and exploitation can be achieved in more ways than overt military intervention.
