Here we go...

[Ptarmigan]

I hear a smack of Soviet Union. I get a bad feeling it is coming back.

[Windsong]

I have a friend named Olga who lives there..in her emails she always complains about the corruption. Same ole same ole, it seems.

[Tarpaulin]

The Revolution won't be televised then?

"Here we go..."

Indeed. Pray for God's will for the people of Kiev.

Fastiv highway? Is that named after the upcoming holiday of Fastivus?

[Max Flatow]

Who says you need seventeen United Nations peace keeping resolutions to invade another country?

[Fitzcarraldo]

Putin and his chosen can't lose. This is going to get bloody.

[what's up]

Washington, DC, Nov. 24 (UPI) -- The United States warned its citizens Wednesday against potential civil unrest and disturbances in Ukraine.

Just another step towards the normalization of a society. The bumps in the road must be felt on unsteady limbs.

Let's hope it is not too awful.

Mods, please put this back in Breaking News. What are you thinking?!

[anniegetyourgun]

I've had a bad feeling about this since yesterday morning....

International pressure apparently is having no affect on Putin. He's determined to maintain control of those nukes.....and the breadbasket.

[TopQuark]

12 tanks? It's some rogue, or drunk, officer.

[Viking2002]

They lived through this BS for decades - I somehow have a feeling that they won't be so easy to cow this time around.

[mainepatsfan]

Will the Ukraine ever be free of Russian oppression?

[Minus_The_Bear]

Is there any confirmation on this. Is this a DEBKA type source??? Did the tanks come from Russia? Are those Ruskies after our precious bodily fluids?

Raging people of Gorokhiv are blocking the Head of the Regional Council in his office.

Today deputies of Gorokhiv Town Council (Volyn Oblast) could not get the decision to recognize Yuschenko as President. They missed three votes. To protest the actions of their representatives, people of Gorokhiv entered the building of the Regional Administration and blocked the Head of the Council in his office. People were lead by a deputy of Volyn Regional Council as well as the deputies of Gorokhiv Town Council, that yesterday proclaimed Yuschenko a lawfully elected President. Gorokhiv Town Council said that it is ready to respond to Yuschenko’s orders. The people of the town are appalled by the decision of its Regional Council and demand the recognition of their will through massive protests and joining the all-Ukrainian strike.
