12 Tanks are Going Towards Kiev

They are moving North towards Fastiv highway, having already crossed Odessa highway. They are using detour roads. We remind that police forces and the army must defend their people and the President they have chosen --people's President V.Yuschenko.

If the MSM had treated Moore they way they did the Swift Boat Vets how much money do you think F-911 would have made?

[mainepatsfan]

Frontline would probably spend the whole show comparing the Ukraine with Florida in 2000.

I smell another Tienanmen Square.

[mrobison]

Yep. Then, they'd list all the ways Bill Clinton could have made things better in the Crimea.

[Major_Risktaker]

I hear a smack of Soviet Union. I get a bad feeling it is coming back.

I hear Putin .vs Soros and the MSM.

Strange game of global chess.

[mainepatsfan]

Interesting question, who is the military supporting?

[steve86]

it's too bad Condi is not Sec. State now.

Yeah, I bet she'd scare Putin

/sarcasm

[counterpunch]

Fastiv highway? Is that named after the upcoming holiday of Fastivus?

Maybe. I have a feeling we're about to witness the airing of grievances.

I've got a lot of problems with you people!

[mrobison]

If Putin gets his way, we should backlash by insisting it be called Chicken Occupied Crimea.

[mrobison]

Elements of the military are supporting both sides. The Marines and the Navy have declared allegiance to the opposition. That is what is so scary.

[mainepatsfan]

I still remember how embarrassing those Clinton-Yeltsin summits were. Clinton's handling of post communist Russia was yet another big foreign policy failure of his sorry excuse of a presidency.

[mainepatsfan]

Yikes! Have no fear! I'm sure the EU are mobilizing their troops as we speak! /sarcasm

[ChadGore]

I've followed GWB and his instints about Putin so far, but if Putin rolls tanks into a foreign capitol and unleashes salvos, I don't know how I could support that.

This stinks of the old U.S.S.R.

[mrobison]

I can just imagine:

Yeltsin: "Hey, Willie, you like Russian women?"

Clinton: No Borris, I like it better when they take their time.

[rodguy911]

Many others from what I hear, that's probably why there is no fighting ,yet.

[mainepatsfan]

Yup. A drunk and a womanizer. Somehow I don't think their meetings will be studied like FDR and Churchill's are.

[mainepatsfan]

If civil war does break out which side would have the advantage?
