As usual you just pull whatever comes out of your ass and then open up and spew it.  

Let me see, I've cited the official account from the US and Ukrainian government. Why the ---- do you doubt those sources and why the ---- would you accept the account from the Russians and online conspiracy theorists instead?!

Oh I see, because George W Bush and company proclaimed there were WMDs in Iraq when there weren't, we now have to disavow anything our government, and in this case, the Ukrainian government has to say about a separate issue and the word of online conspiracy theorists and that of the Russian government is to be taken as the arbiter of truth. Before you cut and run, which sources do you believe?

Even knowing weeks ahead of possible invasion by a mad man, wouldn't want them to fall back into soviet hands.

god forbid the soviets finally get cures to common diseases in ukraine like anthrax or wuhan flu.

I think there's only one pertinent and telling phrase in your entire post that explains it:
"mad man"

The conspiracy theory crowd echoes Russian misinformation talking points:

"Douglas Macgregor has said there’s no point in sanctioning Russia and that America should “absolutely” let Putin take over as much of Ukraine as it wants"
He also said Russia is being too gentle on Ukraine!

We'll try this one more time for the benefit of Greg or anybody else who thinks the same thing as him. The cost of a barrel of oil is determined GLOBALLY not LOCALLY.  
Right now, it stands at about $106/barrel up from the $50 or so from not so long ago.
Additionally, “That $130 price point was factoring in the absolute siege mentality in the oil market, where we were staring down potentially losing all Russian output, OPEC not budging and the Ukraine situation just worsening,” John Kilduff of Again Capital said on CNBC’s “The Exchange.” “Now we’ve reversed all of that, seemingly, to a degree at least. I don’t want to get ahead of myself.”

It doesn't matter much if we don't import much Russian oil and we never did. What matters is the effect on the global cost of a barrel of oil. For the upteenth time, we live and work in a global economy...

Sorry, but not surprised, that you believe it untruths and global conspiracy theories...

"Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan (R) and top lawmakers agreed to halt the state's gas tax for 30 days in an effort to cushion the financial impact on residents as gas prices continue to rise following the United States’s ban on Russian energy imports, The Associated Press reported."

California probably has the highest gas tax on record with about a buck per gallon and arguably the least amount of road repair in return but Ca voters had the chace to repeal the tax but caved to fear mongering advertising instead. 
Now the most obvious cause of the ballistic rise in gas prices is the ban on Russian oil imports which caused the global price of oil to skyrocket and that, in turn, caused the huge spikes we've been seeing in recent days. But you wouldn't know that from watching Hannity on Fox tonight as he blamed it all on Biden, Bernie and AOC and their "green socialist deal"! He even had their pictures together on his screen has he railed away. Nothing about Russia, the global cost of a barrel of oil that ultimately produces the colossal increases that we've seen but, instead, it's the insanity of of blaming it on the "green deal" that we don't even have...
