“Russia is not a threat to the US or Europe.”

I wouldn’t go that far, but the threat is long-term strategic/Economic, and not immediate, or military.

Russia is emerging as an Economic competitor to Europe. The Euro dependence on Russian gas, and wrecking their own energy sources to pacify the Green Socialists, shows us that.

To everyone but a Russian, that’s actually a good thing.

I think to everyone but an agitator it is a good thing.

1,. Sudetenland were never part of Germany (before Hitler) Crimea and Ukraine were part of Russia
2. Anschluss - Hitler wanted Austria to join Reich, but chancellor Dolphus of Austria, refused. Coup was organized by Hitler. Dolphus was later killed and Austria was anected.

Same like in Ukraine - IV Reich (EU) ousted Yanukovich when he refused to enter EU....

Again, it would be funny if it wasn’t so sad. Conspiracies in every direction, and only Russia pure as the wind-driven snow.

Funny video...

Former Ukrainian, now Pro-Russian militia BMD-2 “Drifting”, and doing donuts in the steets of Slovyansk this afternoon.

I surmise there was some alcohol involved (not that there's anything wrong with it).

My favorite tank drifting video.

It would seem the putschists in Kiev, who initiated all of this and are impotent to finish it. Unless they are carried of course.

If Alaska got fed up with the Federal Government and, with popular support, declaired itself independent—electing Sarah Palin as their president—would people on the Free Republic Cheer? If The Republic of Alaska signed a treaty with Putin’s Russia for aid and protection—would people cheer Putin? Maybe. But things would have to get a whole lot worse. Say, obama cancels elections? Runs for a 3rd Term. Bans the Tea Party as a “hate group”? Uses drones to strike Fox News or take out Ted Cruz? Would people support the USA then? Under these events—People might see Putin in a different light.
