****Don’t worry; there are no winners or losers in the artificially-created conflict. While the Holodomor can give Ukrainian separatists a good excuse for going against “the Russians,” students of history are well aware that it never really mattered who rules over the land, and poor people were systematically used for gaining power for a new class of “elite” that might be a lot worse than the previous one was (the “Bolshevik Revolution” stands out as a good example, but in history, most fights for “freedom” or “independence” also make the mark). And don’t forget, NOT A SINGLE slave/peasant uprising has ever succeeded, which doesn’t bode well for today’s “freedom fighters.”****

Excellent point. I agree completely.
