A little bit different, in that the Ukraine is a country that is being invaded by a much larger neighbour.
What's your stance on France being invaded by Germany in World War 2?

Are we going to "come to the rescue" of every country that has its territory threatened? No, we obviously pick out battles, not well, but we pick them.
My point is that an invasion happening 10,000 miles away from the US isn't automatically our business. It's gotten us mired in horrible wars and actually made a lot of situations worse not better.
And the hilarious part is that most commenters here are commenting on an article talking about how terrible the CIA is and somehow throwing all that out the window when it comes to Ukraine.
This you?

Ukraine has nothing to do with the CIA, but you brought it up, so here we are. We're not throwing anything out.
And regardless, does it matter? The broader issue is getting involved. Whether it's the CIA or the DOD, it's meddling.
What is with you? Honestly, what is going on in your life that you defend this genocidal army?
Vietnam - America picked a fight and to get Britain and Australia in to save them, again.
Kuwait - America picked a fight and had to get Britain and then pretty much the whole rest of NATO in to save them, yet again.
Afghanistan, Iraq both times, same old same old.
We keep saving your bacon, and you find an even bigger mess to make within a few years.
Those British Abrams tanks, French paveway laser guided bombs, German Apache attack helicopters, and NATO ground troops. Without them, Desert Storm would have been more of a mild Desert Breeze.
