Former President of Ukraine Yankovych is in Moscow, - Great Russian Threat

Telegraph: Reports the following from the Ukraine, " Viktor Yanukovych 'is in Moscow', says Russian news agency ".

Lets Get Real:

On the whole the above might be for the best, if the former President did end up in a Court, one can postulate that he would blame pressure from Russia for the shootings in the Ukraine, that would even further sour the relationship between the US and Russia.   One can postulate but not a 100% that Putin will keep the former President at some distance and away from the press, the idea to place the Russian Army on alert will get the attention of Kiev and Washington D.C, the problem is that Moscow can not be sure it will get a 100% welcome in the East of the Ukraine should it take action, and the international reaction will be BAD, the Oval will have a hard time keeping the relationship going, it needs that for Syria and Iran.  Interesting days and weeks ahead for the Ukraine. 

Russian THREAT to Ukraine - Great Russian Threat

Guardian: Reports the following from the Ukraine, " Russia puts military on high alert as Crimea protests leave one man dead ".

Lets Get Real:

No one would be surprised if the Russians invaded the East of the Ukraine, it full of native Russians with Russian passports give out by the Moscow, also the Russian Navel fleet is stationed there, thus can Moscow afford to lose the Ukraine.   The Oval has warned Moscow about taking action, but if your Putin you must be laughing, Obama never follows through, see Syria.   The Oval stands up to Republicans but folds when it comes to Iran and Russia, thus if Russia does take action, one can expect refugees to head to neighbouring countries, and they are NATO countries.   Lets hope history is not repeating itself, the World can not afford another 1914. 

Withdrawal TALK Damage to US Troops - Afghanistan

BBC News: Reports the following from Afghanistan, " US Army boss: Afghan pullout talk may encourage Taliban ".

Lets Get Real:

The Taliban from their view have already won, they have waited Obama and the US out, if the US leaves a small force in Afghanistan they will become target practice for Al Qaeda and the Taliban, thus another defeat for the West.   The US and its Allies should just get out, there is no way they can defend a new Afghan Government, your in either in or out in Afghanistan, leaving a small force just makes you a target, just ask British Imperial planners of the 19th Century.   When it comes to Afghanistan every great power thinks they are asking new questions, they are not, at the end of the day the British learned ONE lesson, keep out of having a ground presence in Afghanistan, make any threat aware that the Empire will react, either through small units taking action, or later using planes.    Let the Afghan do their internal stuff any way they like, your not going to make it New York.    The Oval should just get out and use drones, make Afghanistan a free fire zone, yes its brutal but it works.
