Excactly, this isn't a Russian Invasion per se - it is a Russian Defence mechanism.

The way they have gone about it is of course up for debate, but I do believe it was necessary what with the coup de'tat that just took place.

I don't really see any tangible sanctions for them either - unless a stupid Yank decides he wants a nuclear war.

Oh wait....

Unconfirmed reports of Crimea air traffic halted after control rooms stormed by unknown men (viq @pravolivo)

I am pretty sure their breaths smelled of alcohol - drunkards sent to stir up trouble - that is, IF this report is true.
What's next? Russians are going to poison the water supply of Kiev? Not like we've not heard these sort of disinfo propaganda on Twitter before.

Tptb want a war so bad they can taste it but Putin isn't taking the bait. He will give them the war they want but it will be at a time and place of his choosing.

I thinks your post should read:

Tptb are getting played like a crack hoe

'I'll hang you by the balls and have you f***ed' – Ukrainian presidential hopeful abducts pro-Russian MP

A Ukrainian presidential hopeful and his supporters have abducted a regional MP over his opposition to the coup-imposed government in Kiev. A video of the action shows the MP being roughed up by a group of men and threatened.

Oleg Lyashko reported secretly going to the Lugansk region on Sunday night and detaining Arsen Klinchev, a member of the local parliament from the Party of Regions.

"The scum Klinchev will answer for his crimes. We detained him and handed him over to law enforcement. I am sincerely grateful to everyone, who helped with this deed. The video is coming shortly. The fight goes on," Lyashko wrote on his Facebook page.

The promised footage followed soon. In it Lyashko is seen entering the office, as Klinchev later clarified, of local General Vladimir Guslavsky with a group of half a dozen men, whose faces are covered with a black circle. They floor the MP and handcuff his arms behind his back.

Then Lyashko is seen calling Klinchev “scum” several times, while forcing him to make a statement on camera, ordering his supporters to vacate the regional administration building.

A few questions..

Even if the AWACS aircraft keep on the right side of the border couldnt that gather quite alot of intelligence from a quite a large distance?

A NATO AWACS aircraft wouldnt that be somewhat provocative for the russians?

Lavrov invited Kerry for talks but Kerry gave him the cold shoulder and said "Perhaps later if you can agree on our terms". Wouldnt this be to slap a hand reaching for a solution?

And my final question.. WTF IS EVERYONE THINKING?? Just solve the crisis already.. Damn!

Re: UKRAINE/RUSSIA NEWS: Russian military drills begin near Ukraine day after militants announce 100k strong mobalisation!!!p.7387
The Prime Minister of UK gave a statement to the House of Commons about last week’s emergency European Council on Ukraine.

With permission, Mr Speaker, I would like to make a statement on last week’s emergency European Council.

What has happened to Ukraine is completely indefensible. Its territorial integrity has been violated and the aspirations of its people to chart their own future are being frustrated.

This European Council sent a clear and united message to Russia that its actions are in flagrant breach of international law and will incur consequences. We agreed on a three-phase approach to stand up to this aggression and uphold international law: first, some immediate steps to respond to what Russia has done; secondly, urgent work on a set of measures that will follow if Russia refuses to enter dialogue with the Ukrainian Government; and thirdly, a set of further, far-reaching consequences should Russia take further steps to destabilise the situation in Ukraine.

Let me say a word on each of those steps. First, as a response to what Russia has already done, we agreed on some immediate steps. We have suspended preparations for the G8 in Sochi indefinitely. As I told the House last week, my view is that it would be completely wrong for a G8 summit to go ahead at all under current circumstances. We decided to stop work on a comprehensive new agreement on relations between Russia and the European Union, and we immediately suspended the talks that were under way on a more liberal visa regime in the Schengen area—the thing that Russian Ministers and business delegations have pushed for more than anything else.
