Russian rhetoric has changed from "Military action COULD be catastrophic", to "IS catastrophic."
Twitter exploding again, I'll try to keep up.

Just like Russian military action against Chechnya was catastrophic.

Why are Russians in Ukraine protesting the Ukrainian government and rebelling? This is a LOT like the Jihadis entering Chechnya and rebelling against Moscow to form their own breakaway republic. Will the Ukrainians bring in the Grad MRLs?

I am sure that Putin feels that Russian troops, (aka little green men) shooting Ukrainian citizens is morally better than Ukrainian troops shooting little green men agitators. After all the purpose of moving Russian troops into the Ukraine, whether in full military uniform or not, was to protect Russian's (who Stalin moved into the Ukraine after Stalin starved, murdered and expelled to Siberia all those nasty Ukrainians).
