So if they are pro-Russian instead of pro-Ukranian, why does Putin not just grant them asylum in Russia?

The plea for help came hours after a Kyiv-set deadline expired under which separatists occupying government building in eastern Ukraine were to disarm or face an assault by Ukrainian security forces.

Why didn't the Ukrainian security forces assault the insurrectionists in Kiev? Oh, that's right they were ordered not to by a rump parliament of only 227 of the full 450 members, the pro-government members driven off by the firebomb throwing mob.

Was reading an editorial on a Russian website this weekend that Putin should invoke “THE OBAMA DOCTRINE” over Eastern Ukraine.

Declare a “No Fly Zone”.
Then he could send in aircraft and bomb anything he wants to, with impunity, while airdropping in Special Forces and Contractors as “Advisors and Trainers”.

Because he mentions Obama as the justification for it, the Western Media will refuse to report on it.

Obamassss Chichenzzzzz coming home to roost. This is the cost of a weak, mocked Presdient in the US White House, that has no clue what he is doing.

Everyone who has their head up their ass didn't see it.

So now we know how much the world cares about Russia’s plans to take over East Ukraine — virtually not at all, about the same amount as the world cares whether China takes over the Senkaku Islands.

After a weekend of hysterical media coverage of Ukrainian unrest and threats of Russia cutting off gas supplies to Ukraine and Europe, the world’s financial markets have responded — not with panic selling, not with soaring gold prices, but with a rare buying spree after weeks of triple-digit losses. At this rate, we could be seeing Dow 20,000 in a matter of months.

It’s clear that no one will restrain the Russian Bear from eating his way across EurAsia, it’s almost as if the world is cheering him on.

Waving a false flag. These thugs taking over Ukrainian government buildings are not the friends and neighbors of the locals. They are Russian special forces. They are probably the same people that killed the protesters in Kiev.

It will be up to Ukraine citizens to drive out those invaders.

Got to admire Putin a bit. Without agreeing or disagreeing with his politics, at least he’s not hiding who he is and that he’s never surrendered in the Cold War.
