Time to head home for the weekend. -28F. for tonight, A good night to watch/listen to hockey (UND is on CBSsports and all I have is basic cable. What's wrong with NBCsports![:@]) and package up the venison sausage I made last night.

Sadly not the game. [:(]

I observed several years ago that there is, in fact though not in name, a new czar.

Wait a minute...You don't think all those identically uniformed soldiers without insignia could have been...Russian? Perish the thought! Why, how very tricky they would have been to take over such Spetsnaz-themed targets without identifying where they were from! [8|]

And now they've received an invitation to come in and "help with security" from the Russian Crimeans. Classic cold war situation. Already a couple of thousand extra Russian soldiers have come in and started to "help with security". There'll be more. A lot more.

Morning folks,
Mike, hope everything works out with your Mom. Best thing is that you are there to be strong for her

Wait a minute. I thought they were volunteers from not Russia and the Kremlin disavowed all knowledge of them.

Pretty poor control over your men and materiel when they can abscond with all manner of Mi-24, Mi-8 helicopters and a bunch of APCs with the Russian flag on them in a well choreographed armed invasion. Unless the Kremlin was lying. You don't think...NO! That's not possible. [8|]

This'll go over real well with the Tatar minority in Crimea, I'm sure.

Brace yourselves War is coming

And now Russian Parliament has authorized use of force to defend Russian lives and interests. It is a coup. If the U.S. were to have done this, there would be world outrage. Heck, there was! But Russia? China? Naw, that's ok [8|] The world will say a few bad things & let it slide.

The Ukrainian interim president has ordered full mobilization. Tick-tock-tick-tock...[:(]

POTUS has a plan.

No, war is not coming. If you think so then run to your bunkers, shut yourselves down, and learn how to eat field greens.

The Russians are doing what the Russians will do following 300 years of history. If the US SecState Kerry asshole don't get it, maybe he should have gone to another school that teaches critical thinking.

Nobody is saying that there'll be a world war. But Russia is certainly looking to go to war with Ukraine, and it'll be perfectly real for the people in it.

True. But Russia has had the Crimea since forever, and why not just take it from a universally recognized useless regime, that has a name and borders that were given by Russia, for political purposes, for the establishment of the UN?

Both the EU and the US use the principle of "self determination" when it suits their interests. God help anyone who uses "self determination" as a principle that interferes with the political imperitives of the US and EU. Cimea is Russian. And if they want to recover it, who's to say? Yes, let's have a disussion of 500 years worth of Russian history, and then revisit this subject.

No world war (they aren't that stupid, and we eat too many canapes), but the Russians are going to take what they need from Ukraine, and kick Ukrainian butt where necessary, brainless John Kerry, notwithstanding. Just read the Rus Inf Journal, M.N.Janeczko, for a bit of background. Ciao. John
