Apparently, the [STRIKE]Soviet[/STRIKE] Russian propaganda is just that. Propaganda. The jews of the Ukraine aren't in any danger and certainly don't see the need to be saved by Putin, no matter what some apologists would have us believe.

Maybe Russia should invade France if anti-Semitism is the concern.

Give them time.

A certain repeat poster will assume that article was propaganda. Everyone knows nazi's rule Ukraine.

Well, here's one for the Putin apologists. He's already setting out the steal the land that belongs to the resident Tatars. ANd they've decided to become an autonomous region within the Crimea. That should go over well in the halls of the Kremlin. Vlad's such a forward thinking guy.

The same is being said of Ukraine and the numbers are about the same.

Why do you think it is a bad idea?

Frankly, I find it brilliant and one about four weeks overdue. Projection of power is not the same thing as application of power.

One would hope, however, lessons from Able Archer '83 were learned...

Havent they always done this? I think the gesture is more symbolic than actually changing anything.

Well, where have we seen this before? Looks like the Soviet agents are back at work, prepping things to give Rooty Poot an excuse to invade eastern Ukraine.

I'm sure our "friend" will be along shortly to tell us how this is all the neo-Nazi's fault.

Saw this coming for months. There have been tens of thousands of Russians stationed and prepared for an Eastern Ukrainian invasion since Crimea was first invaded. They wouldn't mobilize them for no reason. Wonder if Ukraine will try to put up a fight with this one?

If they do, will anyone else come to their aid?

I find it rather doubtful, which is why I'm rather doubting they'll resist. They can't beat Russia on their own. At this point it's cede whatever Russia wants, or go to war and lose their entire nation. At least that's the way I figure it.

What are the odds Russia will stop at taking just a part of Ukraine?

On a different note: this is a pretty good example of the potential folly of drawing down military capabilities. Weakness is provocative after all, it would appear. It's also a perfect example of the utter futility and worthlessness of international agreements, which in turn is just as much an indictment on "diplomacy" itself, IMO. Force is the only factor significant enough to deter one's enemies.

Yessir. And what happened the last time the U.S. drew down the military to pre-WWII levels? Uh... World War II.
