Ukraine has 2400 tanks. Some percentage of them will be on the move every day.
Twelve tanks might be enough to protect a couple of government buildings at most.
And in a town that is not very large. Kiev has 3 million people.
LOL! another MarMema gem! These Ukrainians need Russian intervention to show the the petty bigotry of loyalty to their own nation's flag. If only the Soviet Union was still around to settle these nationalistic squabbles. As everyone knows, racism and nationalism were not tolerated in those good old days.
I think maybe God gave Luschenko his new face, so it would match his inner "face" better.
What took them so long??
ROFL. Did you read the first 50 or so posts on this thread? Most were awaiting the Russian tanks' arrival in Ukraine where they would begin shooting citizens in the streets, presumably immediately.
the reason why most eastern workers & miners are against Yushenko is cause he was the one that closed the mines they worked in and stopped paying their salaries for six months or more.
It's Kyiv Dinamo -vs- Donetsk Shakhtyor!
Four years ago I spent many a long evening trying to explain why the US didn't have a president yet, and my Ukrainian friends were laughing about our silly system.
Now who's laughing?
What's really interesting is how my friends send frantic letters from Kyiv and Lugansk about how it's the end of the world, yet the lights, hot water, and internet are all still on.
Here's praying that Ukraina's battles all remain in the courts and blogosphere.
What? Yushchenko is not a Saint of All Things Anglo-Saxon Western?
in case you are interested....
