Do Putin and Russia think we're all stupid?

Putin's gone to the G20 then. You've got to admire his balls. He's like that cousin you invite to the family party but you secretly hope he won't show. Everybody knows he beats his wife, so when he walks in there's lots of nudging and whispering; snide remarks are made; and some will even have words with him about his behaviour.
Russia is behind the unrest in Ukraine. The evidence is so blatantly clear that only the most pig-headed denial-spouting knob would even try to argue with it.
So, why is Putin being that knob? Does he honestly thin the rest of the world is that stupid?
I'd have more respect for the man if he just stood up and said, "Yeah - we're behind the Ukraine crisis; what of it? Nobody stopped America marching into Iraq and Afghanistan, so fuck you and the NATO you rode in on."
At least then he wouldn't be taking us all for idiots. Doesn't he realise there's no shame in hegemony anymore? Everybody's doing it. Hegemony is the new "intervention". America does it, Japan does it, the EU does it; so why shouldn't the Russians join in and get their piece of the pie?
Come on, Putin - tell the truth. You'll feel a lot better for it.
