UKRAINE/RUSSIA NEWS: Russian military drills begin near Ukraine day after militants announce 100k strong mobalisation!!!p.7387

I've been on this thread since the first page (thank you Luis) and in all that time the last 24 hours have been the most worrisome.

Today though I am more concerned than ever before. The US and the west don't seem to fathom the depth of what is actually happening. They are being sucked into an un-winnable war. The latest pull back of Pres. Putin refusing to talk to Washington is most concerning.

Mr. Obama and his minions are attempting to handle Russia as if it really is just another mid-east minor league team. I think they truly believe Russia is just a "regional power", they are not.

The repeated attempts to marginalize and "punish" a nuclear giant with a more than respectable conventional military, have done nothing but incite a hands on response by Russia's covert forces. Washington has backed Putin into a corner, they must realize that he will be forced to act in response. Sanctions will be met by actions from Moscow, they have few other options.

I hoped that the egomaniac in the White House would seek council from those outside his administration, former advisers or elder statesmen. Instead we get Jen Psaki, Victoria Nuland, Samantha Powers and god only knows what is coming out of Valerie Jarret's or Susan Rice's mouth. Amateurs, at least that's what vibe they are sending out to those of us who are truly awake.

God help us, I fear the worst. Remember my fellow Americans, you got the leadership you voted for. Now go back to sleep it will all be over soon.

LOL! Was just thinking that myself. You know, whether it's national politics or international politics, the one thing that always overwhelms is the stench of bullshit. So sick and tired of it.

Somebody grow some balls and swing them in a consistent manner.

Excellent analysis. I totally agree with you. It is amateur hour, only they are playing with millions of peoples lives on the line.

EXCELENT ANALISIS, JUST POST IT IN FIRST PAGE.

Game of chess on a global scale with a lot of posturing and rhetoric thrown in.
