Looks like our boy Vlady is doing a little more than saber rattling. I've been glued to the coverage but it looks like we are going to see the might of the Russian army in a few hours. It's no surprise that he is going to take Crimea to protect this "forever" fleet (I think the English called their fleet something similar in the late 1700s and I believe it wasn't around forever).
The conflict will kick off and it will get ugly. Of course, the good ole US of A of Obama has zero foreign policy and no clue what to do. Our government's posturing is embarrassing and there's really nothing we can do. We've let Vlady do what he wants for the last 4 years and he could invade Europe and we wouldn't be able to do much. I'd love to say that NATO will help out, but outside of the UK, there's not much might behind that NATO force.
Then again, everyone thought the Russians would breeze through Chechnya and Grozny ... that didn't turn out very well for them.
