Let Crimea Join Russia

Apparently, at least some people in Crimea want to be part of the Russian Federation:

Why not let them? I thought the US was in favor of self determination for all peoples.

For those who might think this referendum is a sham, I remind you that Hawaii (the alleged birthplace of Obama ad-Dajjal) became a US state chiefly due to the votes of US servicemen and their families who were stationed there. If Hawaii can join the US, then Crimea can join the Russian Federation.

And beyond that, the peoples of the world ALL want the right of self determination. Many of them don't want to be like Americans, and few of them want to be the vassals of neoliberalism or the new extractivism.
