I would like to ask you to consider the British and American attitudes to democracy. The people of the Crimea have voted by 97% to be consolidated into the Russian Federation and our political geniuses tell them that their decision is both undemocratic and illegal. You genuinely could not make it up!
The term democracy comes from the Greek 'demos' and 'kritas' meaning the rule of, or the will of, the people. So, the only proper application of the term democracy is to situations when the people of any political entity express their will. The people of the Crimea politically belong to the Ukraine, but spiritually and ethnically they have just informed the world in a manner that can neither be disputed nor challenged that they are Russian. Never mind say our glorious leaders in the 'democratic' west, your will and opinion matters not a jot and we do not recognise it. In other words, the Crimeans are not entitled to an opinion, never mind a vote.
The West argues that the Crimean referendum is illegitimate because it conflicts with the Ukrainian constitution, but this is a graphic example of where the law is wrong, and not the lawbreakers. It was St Thomas Aquinas, that well-known Marxist revolutionary, who told us that an unjust law is no law at all, and there can be no sense of justice in any political arrangement that denies the wishes of a population who votes 97% in favour of something. No constitutional arrangement can be considered lawful and valid where it seeks to deny such a democratic mandate.
Who is right and who is wrong in the Ukrainian situation becomes irrelevant when a people speak with such a unanimous manner. This must be the one of the biggest democratic mandates in history, gained in a vote that was open and transparent and puts the democratic claims of the British government to shame. We join in the condemnation of the Crimean referendum at our peril as it encourages political gangsters (and Westminster is only composed of political gangsters) to only accept votes and opinions that they approve of, and if you doubt that I simply refer you to the last Labour administration. This is the Westminster clique preparing the grounds for an attack on the result of the Scottish referendum if they do not like it. You have been warned.
