The Ukrainian situation is very, very dangerous... Much more so than the Yugoslavian problem in the 90s. Unfortunately the United States has a president who is more interested in golfing than world affairs, and he’s likely unable to influence any of the bad possible outcomes in the Ukraine because of his consistent lack of world leadership.

Russia will probably step in at some point. After all, this isn’t some distant Russian cousin having a dispute. This is a country that was run by Russia, a country that has a very large population of Russian ex-patriots and a country who’s stability the Russian economy depends on.

All Putin needs is a clear invitation or some significant incident to act and insert Russian forces. The one flaw that Putin does not possess is indecisiveness and with the free world lacking a real leader, Obama can huff and puff and even throw a tantrum if such a move occurs, but Putin knows in the end that Obama will do nothing.

One thing is for sure, this mess will not be good for Jews or any other minorities in the Ukraine. If I were there, I would be heading for the border as fast as I could.

More of “they are all fascists” coming straight out of Kremlin, Jews should know better and don't fall for it. It's not that Putin's crew became so concerned with anti-semitism, really...

I recognize the Ukrainian flag, but what is the other one?

At least there’s safety and many former Jewish Ukrainians in Israel.
