Some estimates I’ve read is that there are a couple of hundred Russian specnaz commandos. They are aided by hundreds more Ukrainian former police types (like Berkut, the ones that shot people on Maidan in Kiev) and tons of unarmed local civilians (the ones that advance towards Ukrainian APCs hoping to provoke a response)
I think it’s finally dawning on people who are not locked into falsehood permanently, that the situation in Ukraine is not Putin the Devil vs. Ukraine Government the Saints.
Is this news on FR? I am too busy to check or post but maybe later...

TimeBomb2000 has a very active ongoing thread about Ukraine with many photos and videos, a good resource.
I saw anohter article that said Nuland was grilled by Repubs in Congress about $ going to Svoboda. Can’t find it but it’s on that thread some where.
Pinging a few names to a good resource for what’s happening in Ukraine.
Its funny isn’t it.....not to the Uke civvies obviously
Public relations wise these Ukrainian nationalists dear hearts are snatching defeat from the jaws of victory at light speed in US media complex and our own little sandbox Free Republic....we warned folks they were worse than Vlad

And the rich irony of Jewish uberprogressive traditional American values hating Soros watching his little Ukrainian Frankenstein rear its very ugly jackbooted Nazi like dark side is priceless
Of course...a monster only its creator kapo could love
