Western democracy knows no bounds.
And what we mean by that is, Western hypocrisy knows no limits.
Catalan declaration of independence, vs International Court of
Justice â??Advisory Opinion on Kosovoâ??
http://www.icj-cij.org/files/case-related/141/141-20100722-ADV-01-00-EN.pdf
is a classic example of Western dignity and consistency.
â?? My fiat good, your fiat bad.
â?? My independence good, your independence bad.
â?? My destruction of your nation is not an invasion, just a
"Democratic reset" for your pathetic backward nation run by a tin
pot dictator - â??oh but we put your dictator in powerâ?? I hear you
say? Suck it up buttercup, Western nations Do No Wrong (R)(TM)(C).

(2) The Western powers often say they support the right of national
self-determination, which they all too often take to mean the right
to secession from another state.
The Western powers have insisted on the rigorous application of
this principle to the former republics of the USSR, to the former
republics of Yugoslavia, to Kosovo and Montenegro when they seceded
from Serbia, and to South Sudan.
In each and every one of these cases the Western powers vigorously
supported the secessionist or â??independenceâ?? movements that
achieved the independence of these countries.
However they deny this very same right of national
self-determination (as they interpret it) to the Serbs of Croatia,
Bosnia and Kosovo, to the Abkhazians and South Ossetians who have
seceded from Georgia, to the people of Crimea, to the Russian
speaking people of eastern Ukraine and the Baltic States, and now
to the people of Catalonia. Why?
