It appears the pen was not mightier than... the handbag...

At least 50 Ukrainian servicemen have left the Ukrainian Navy headquarters in the city of Sevastopol, Rear Admiral Sergey Gaiduk of the Ukrainian Navy among them. There were no reports of violence.

Ukraine has lost the Crimea. What I'm concerned about is the occupation of the gas facility that's in Ukraine proper. Ukraine has every right and obligation to take it back. The Russians say their army is not involved.

If they let that go then their sovereignty is slipping away.

Because China is not a white, Christian country, the cultural Marxist media doesn’t have an axe to grind with China. Neocons are cultural Marxists in disguise, which is why there is no difference between how the New York Times and NPR are covering Ukraine and how the Wall Street Journal and National Review are.

This is all about divide and conquer. Our media has no love for Ukraine, they are simply supporting the weaker people they hate against the stronger. The funny thing is that right up until the CIA backed protests started, the only thing you would ever hear about Ukrainians in “our” media was that they are anti-semitic neanderthal scum.

Under Clinton, the U.S. swore to protect the Ukraine. I really do believe Clinton would’ve handled this with force. He would’ve sent military assets to Crimea about 4 or 5 months ago and established a U.S. military presence there. Obama is ‘OUT TO LUNCH’ as usual, as he was in Iraq, Afghanistan, Egypt, Benghazi, etc.. If a major superpower would like to take control of the United States, now would be the best time to make their move. Obama is GUTLESS. He’s a scared woman in a suit.
