Russia is the pressing threat. Throw Russia out first, and retake Crimea. Then deal with Azov fanatics. That's what triage is; you deal with the big thing first, and then the smaller things. You don't treat an amputated finger while someone is gushing blood from a severed carotid.

Never going to happen.

Defeatist.

Also never going to happen.

Also defeatist.

This is the point in time where I ask how Putin's boot tastes like. Palestine kept fighting for over 80 years and your view of Ukrainian resolve speaks volumes. Sure, Azov might be the Ukrainian equivalent to Hamas, but last I checked invasion tends to breed extremist groups and those extremist groups tend to be a pain in the invaders ass. Word to IS and Al Quaida, who still haven't been defeated by US imperialists. Will it take some time for them to get curbed after all is said and done? Yes, just look at the IRA. Needless to say, you've got plenty of other historical precedent to contend with.
