Yeah, the U.S. (and other western nations) really don't have any moral ground to stand on when they condemn Russia. What's good for the goose is apparently not good for the gander.
They have plenty of moral ground. Russia has, without a single reason, taken over part of another sovereign nation.
They have plenty of reasons (protecting Russian nationals, protecting their Black Sea Fleet naval bases, taking back historically important land, etc), just not reasons you agree with. I'm not saying it's right, just that we are massive hypocrites for calling them out on it.

Wouldn't "not discussing the case with anyone" include your daughter? Even is he did tell her, he obviously didn't make it clear enough that they would lose the money if she talked about it. Point is, teen girl is dumb, but it was the dad who allowed this situation to happen.
I say stay out of it. If Russia wants to mess around with one of their former territories, let them. It's none of our concern. We invaded Iraq (twice) and Afghanistan for arguably less legitimate reasons, so we really don't have any moral ground to stand on. Besides, does anyone really want to play chicken with Putin?
