    We had a drone out over the Ukraine just an hr ago. Now it’s over the Black Sea.

    I don’t think they’d hesitate to knock it out.

              Belarus is a large part of this.

                Ukraine’s mig29’s can make the flight to sochi. three of them should go put some holes in Putin’s palace rather than retaliate anywhere else on Russian soil. If the civilians see this a cockamamie plan of their leadership that does nothing to improve their lives, maybe it’ll put some pressure on Vlad to think again.

                    I'm no military expert, but seems like Ukraine's runways just got smoked and any planes flying into Russia without Russian tags would get blown out of the sky pretty quickly? Seems like foreign intervention is the only way Putin isn't doing everything he wants...which obviously sucks.

                          Very true, but can you imagine what millions of russian citizens are thinking as they wake up?

                            Saw a pic of dead Ukraine soldiers. Makes me think of all those interviews on the VICE channel. Those guys are getting hammered tonight.

                            Going to get uglier. Gut check.

                              Land forces invading Ukraine's southern flank from Crimea

                              Strikes across the border and front lines in the East.

                              Damnit. We live interesting times.
                              Source? Was watching the ABCNews live on youtube, but it's like MTT says. Lots of warmongering talking heads. They say Kyiv getting bombed, but the live shot behind them shows a normal looking city, no flashes in the sky. (That doesn't mean it's not being bombed, but it sure doesn't look like Baghdad)

                              I'm not doubting you, I'm looking for an intelligent source.

                              On the "it's the west's fault" I found this lecture from 8 years ago. John Mearsheimer makes that argument https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JrMiSQAGOS4
                              The basic argument is Putin's afraid of NATO, and we don't listen. He goes into a lot more detail, including some Ukraine background and support for some of Putin's complaints. Not that it justifies anything, more a Machiavellian explanation, and some understanding how Putin sees things. It's worth a watch.

                                Hopefully Ukraine can resist and draw an unacceptable price from the Russians.
