Glen O'Brien spent a few days in western ukraine during the war. He says he was surprised at how different it is to America's view of Ukraine. The country has an incredibly complex history and diversity of thought, writes O'Brien. But there are certain segments that you're almost likely to hear what you already expect to hear on the ground when you go down there. 'I think we have to be humble about our ability to understand the thoughts of the population,' said O'Brien after his trip.
