Eric Draitser of StopImperialism.org appears on Bullet Points with Navid Nasr to discuss the ongoing crisis in Ukraine.  They examine the recent history leading up to the current conflict including the “Orange Revolution” of 2004 and the key individuals from that movement impacting the situaiton today.  Eric and Navid also touch upon a range of issues including historical precedents for understanding the conflict in Ukraine, color revolutions as examples of soft power, the role of the Western media in selling war and US-NATO foreign policy, bourgeois liberalism and its cozy relationship with imperialism and much much more.
