'INCREDIBLE ACT OF AGGRESSION'
Quote:
A sense of escalating crisis in Crimea -- an autonomous region of eastern Ukraine with strong loyalty to neighboring Russia -- swirled, with U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry condemning what he called Russia's "incredible act of aggression."
Speaking on the CBS program "Face The Nation," Kerry -- who is set to arrive in Kiev on Tuesday -- said several foreign powers are looking at economic consequences if Russia does not withdraw its forces.
"All of them, every single one of them are prepared to go to the hilt in order to isolate Russia with respect to this invasion," he said. "They're prepared to put sanctions in place, they're prepared to isolate Russia economically."

Quote:From being an important part of the Ukraine, suddenly the Crimea is an isolated peninsula? You can already see the west scraping the Crimea off the bottom of their shoes.
Putin secured permission from his parliament on Saturday to use military force to protect Russian citizens in Ukraine and told U.S. President Barack Obama he had the right to defend Russian interests and nationals, spurning Western pleas not to intervene.
Russian forces have already bloodlessly seized Crimea, an isolated Black Sea peninsula where Moscow has a naval base.
On Sunday, they surrounded several small Ukrainian military outposts there and demanded the Ukrainian troops disarm. Some refused, leading to standoffs, although no shots were fired.
Yes, indeed, Russia is going to face serious (economic) consequences!
The media bias- both ways- is just amazing.

All ? Every single one of the " several " countries ? Wow. That does sound impressive.
Isolate a country which has 11 times zones. Great! That should solve matters in no time.
Fathom the hypocrisy of a government that requires every citizen to prove they are insured... but not everyone must prove they are a citizen

CHRIS, I wanted to quote KIKI, who said better than I ...

So I just wanted to throw this in the mix. Geezer et al seem to want to be seen as pro FREEDOM and DEMOCRACY. but apparently free and fair democratic elections aren't good enough for them. They are quite happy to see free and fair democratic elections overturned by force to get a political party in power THEY like.
Or, to repeat myself.... every time you hear anyone (that means us too) say they're fighting for "freedom", you should flinch.

Maybe I'm the only one who finds this hysterically funny, but I laughed out loud when I saw this! Compliments of zerohedge.

Putin is going to call the President's bluff. This guy's ego is about as huge as the dickwad in North Korea.
Not a good sign.

You can't trust Putin?
OF COURSE you can trust Putin! You can trust him to look after Russia's interests. Far better than our last trio of Presidents looked after America's, anyway!

But he's supposedly got a really hot g/f , a former Olympic rhythmic gymnast.
