March 5, 201411 yr So on the bright side, maybe we'll get to walk in the footsteps of our grandfathers and sleep with their women and drink their expensive wine as we liberate the French. Bonus points if we can liberate them before the Russians get there. Today that is not acceptable as it perpetuates the 'War Against Women'. You should be thrown in jail for even suggesting such an act in a jokingly way. I'll forgive you if you post some hot pics of Ukranian chicks...the less clothes the better.
March 7, 201411 yr Don't remember seeing this posted, think it's worth the read: Kissinger: To settle the Ukraine crisis, start at the end Leaders of all sides should return to examining outcomes, not compete in posturing.
March 12, 201411 yr So did Tom Clancy https://www.amazon.com/Command-Authority-Jack-Ryan-Clancy/dp/0399160477 I picked up this book after seeing this post, and have to say, it's pretty spot on much of what has happened. Haven't really read any other Tom Clancy, but I would recommend for a suspenseful read with good parallels between what we're actually seeing over in Crimea right now.

March 20, 201411 yr Relax boys and girls, we have shown our hands and NOT all options are on the table. Obama: U.S. Won’t Take Military Action in Ukraine “We are not going to be getting into a military excursion in Ukraine,” the President told San Diego’s NBC affiliate KNSD. Instead, Obama said, the U.S. will offer economic support to the new government in Ukraine while leveraging diplomatic pressure, including sanctions, against Russia. We can all go back to preparing for the upcoming BBQ competition.

March 24, 201411 yr I'm curious do the Russians or Chinese even have CBTs? They do...the only reason the 10,000 Russian troops haven't breached the Eastern border of Ukraine is because they aren't all CBT complete yet. But once they are....
