I find it quite disturbing that I wasn't sure this was satire until the second paragraph :-/

The one problem with this is that the human shields would mass (if they indeed massed) against the threat OF democracy in the Ukraine, not the threat TO democracy. After all, Powell and Bush have both made statements in favor of the protestors, who are clearly imperialists imperiling the valiant Putinite resistance, etc.
