So, why are the PTB trying to gin up a war?
Be morally indignant.
Try economic sanctions.
Make the Russians unpopular or uncool.
But without the ability to project force the protests are in vain.
One of the most pathetic, fuzzy logic beliefs of the modern age is that "violence never solved anything."
In truth, order may only be provided by force. Its just a question of who controls that force.
Weak. Not as weak as Obama but weak just the same.
Too bad our President doesn’t speak so forthrightly.
Our primary duty is to stand firm against Washington DC aggression. They trample on the United States Constitution, and flagrantly refuse to defend our borders.
Stephen Harper is the Prime Minister of Canada
So send in your troops cowboy.
Where is the EU? It is their fight, are we supposed to save their sorry butts yet again?
How about they raise an Army and put a stop to all this “aggression”. We will be more than happy to SELL them whatever they need to fight their war.
The U.N. said in its report that rebel groups continue to “abduct, detain, torture and execute people kept as hostages in order to intimidate” the population in the east. It said rule of law had collapsed in the rebel-held areas and that 812 people had been abducted in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions since mid-April.

What binding values Western nations have in Obama?
That is the joker for Russia in this.
It is obvious Russia is doing as it pleases because of Obama but no one in the Pentagon or political circles dare state we have a manshurian foreign traitor in power.
Great article by Prime Minister Harper! Proud to have him as a neighbor!
Rapid Trident 2014
Sea Breeze 2014 - a massive drill off the coast of Crimea: electronic warfare, data collection from a spy satellite, and ‘monitoring’ of commercial aircraft traffic.
Other NATO leaders are smart and keep low profile. Harper is yapping like an open barn door.
