Obama To Deliver Statement On Ukraine At 4:45 PM - Live Stream
Obama is scheduled to speak on the Ukraine 4:45pm. He may not even be half an hour last this time. And while we are waiting, we just got this:
- U.S. BELIEVES GROUND TROUPS IN CRIMEA ARE INDEED RUSSIAN: CNN
Perhaps this confirms there are no Russian troops on the ground after all.
Well that was quick:
- OBAMA SAYS ‘DEEPLY CONCERNED’ BY RUSSIAN MILITARY MOVEMENTS
- OBAMA SAYS "THERE WILL BE COSTS" FOR MILITARY INTERVENTION IN UKRAINE
- OBAMA SAYS "UKRAINE PEOPLE DESERVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO DETERMINE THEIR OWN FUTURE"
- OBAMA SAYS HE COMMENDS RESTRAINT OF UKRAINIAN GOVERNMENT
- OBAMA SAYS BIDEN HAS SPOKEN WITH PRIME MINISTER OF UKRAINE
- OBAMA SAYS U.S. SUPPORTS UKRANIAN SOVERIGNTY
And... that's it: no statement on what if anything the US will do if Russia keeps its presence there and continues piling troops and equipment.

The Amerikan Joe 6 pack want's Obama as Pres. So, do not be upset about Barry, because he addresses his BS to J 6 P from Amerika. Support him, you sheepels!
http://www.c-span.org/video/?318040-6/president-obamas-statement-ukraine
The Dark Knight don't need no prep time for no speechification to the situational bustification breakin out in ukrainistan. This Pootin bitch be squatin on my brother from another mother Mr. whats his name in London. What?....... yea, the funny teeth peeps on the Island. Peace out.
Or put another way.
Ukraine... Sorry... They called our bluff, you're fucked. Bye.
As Porky Pig would say, "There will be Cccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc...You'll paaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...oh, ssssssssssssssssshucks..." Yeah, I know, REAL intimidating....
OBLAMA: "Final point, will Bagdad Bob please report to the White House."
Obama: 25 minutes late to speak, speaks for 1 minute, max, says nothing of note.
"The situation is very fluid." -> "we have no idea what is going on."
"Russia's intervention into Ukraine would have a destabilizing effect." -> "...just like everything the US does in other countries, constantly. But when we do it it's okay."
"I urge Russia to respect...blah blah blah" -> "I got burned setting up 'red lines' that are continuously crossed to no response, so now I'm going to be much more vague in my empty threats."
Any mention if they'll let eastern Ukraine determine their future? Or is just the thugs that put flag on top of a building in Kiev?
Of course not. Self determination is to be allowed only where and when it can benefit the empire.
heh heh heh
out of the frying pan, and into the having a giant IMF cock in your ass, boys.
there was no other way this would go.

My favorite line was Obozo commending the Ukranian "gov't" for their restraint? hahahahaha! As if those thugs in power for the moment can do anything but read to the press whatever their EU/US masters order them to say. Yeah, this is real "democracy" at work.
russian puppet account
Exactly. On ZH since 2009, but I've been in slumber waiting for this exact moment to shit all over the facist coup of the Ukranian gov't by CIA/EU ops... and laugh as Putin rolls in the tanks while jizz-bots like you call me a puppet. You got me. lulz
PEEWEE HERMAN V. HULK HOGAN. ...so far peewee has shown great restraint in this grudge match...
he's off to another community organizing event
Just wow. I didn't think Obama could pull off such a great impersonation of a damp rag.
Russia is the largest oil producer in the world.
They can pretty much tell the west to fuck itself. Turn off the tap and the result will make the 1970s look like cake walk.
OBAMA SAYS "UKRAINE PEOPLE DESERVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO DETERMINE THEIR OWN FUTURE"
Uh, they were going to have electionse early next year. Last ones in 2010 (President) and 2012 (Rada legislature) were declared by all to be free and fair.
We didn't want to them to determine their future, we funded and possibly armed neo-Nazi West Ukrainian crazies to take power by force and they did. They immediately banned the Russian language (the primary language used in the country) and legalized the use of Nazi symbols.
Just as Obama supports Jihadists in the Middle East, he now supports Fascists in Europe. Fascists in other European countries (they do exist and are gaining support) are gaining strength as a result of Obama's/Rice's/Powers'/Nuland's idiocy. This is what happens when you have corrupted idiots and morons run an important country.
So, basically he said we are For UKranian Democracy.
I know spanish is the primary language of USA.
Now I know Russian is the primary language of Ukraine.
(or not?)
Russian is used far more in business.
As far as I know is most used in all regions except most western.
All families I know of in Kiev and area speak Russian firstly.
It is not an issue one way or other except for the crazies look for trouble...
"You can have any color (ruler) you like, so long that it's black (he serves us)."
Just like the people of Iraq got to choose Hussein and then got to choose to replace him.

What, no WMDs and "yellow-cake?!" LOL
"DC US paper-tiger goes...wait for it...meow."
My cynical self says that gold actually goes down because of this: if this event is resolved over the weekend, gold gets sold on sunday night. If it continues and escalates, then gold rises moderately, but it doesn't spike to some mind blowing level. Crisis-in-question is then "resolved" with some superficial, bogus "agreement" that causes gold to fall to below where it started (i.e. ended today) as all is good in the world again.
I'm just as cynical as you. Have no doubt what you described is exactly the plan.
Makes me even confident of the wise choice to own it.
Biden is still jogging between the WH pillars ?
Somebody has to be on the job!
By the way, under a 2010 basing agreement between Ukraine and Russia, Russia can station up to 25,000 military personnel in Crimea, as well as 388 naval vessels and 161 aircraft
But you won't hear about that in the controlled whore U.S. media which only reports what the corrupt a*sholes want them to.
It is enough.
UN UN UN, memories of shoes pounded on desks, serious people around a table ear phones on speaking of how to avoid wars, televised world wide, national headlines, now we get nothing, does the UN shut down for cold weather in NYC? does the UN security council just use paper cutouts of the powerful?? Laughing at the insanity of international politics of today...good night mrs calabash where ever you are.
Putin: Get off my lawn.
Obama: There will consequences
Putin: Yeah, if you don't get off my lawn.
Later:
Obama: What now?
Jarret, thumbing through the playbook: I don't know -- who wrote this shit?
Nuland: I'll ask my husband.
George Soros should have joined President Remus at the mic and said it's only "$5 billion"!...
We'll see Obama start to flex that "flexibility" he talked about to Medvedev.
And the Americans send in troops dressed as Ukrainian soldiers who fire at Russian troops to instigate further conflict in 3 2 1...,
We're basically at the point now where 50% of the fighting force will just refuse to deploy. Send the senators. Barack can lead the charge. Don't bother sending what's left of them back. Fucking lunatics.
Well interpreted Sgt
Hate to say this but sometimes you have to be cruel to be kind.
If anyone wants to know the truth about how close we were to starting it with Syria last year ask those sailors, marines and airmen that held signs covering there face that said "We're not going to Syria to die for Al Qaeda"... Congress gave it a "green light", the boyz in the trenches said no way and that's why Syria didn't come off. Anyone who says otherwise is a fucking liar. I was knocking on doors at the House of Representatives and you should have seen the AIPAC, JINSA crowd twisting arms until they almost popped off screaming "uncle". Then you got the likes of Congressman Grayson of Flordia strolling out in the 11th hour telling the peace brigade they had "won". B.S.!
Didn't have a god damn thing to do with the anti-war crowd. The military is toast and they simply told the "leadership" at the pentagon to pound sand (.) Every single Congressmman and Senator in Washington should be hung for the lying traitorous sack of shit they all are.
Ask our "more than fucked" lads in uniform that have been used like a dish rag the last 13 years if they are enthusiastic about starting a conventional range war with Russia in it's backyard? What the translation is from the mouth of John Kerry, should help you with that answer. Someone should have popped him in the head after those words left his mouth and I don't mean with a fist either.We were already completely off the reservation "done" militarily 5 years ago. We're so far beyond done now it's not even debatable! When you've totally fucked yourself and it's your own poor choices that made you that way don't be a Zionist Jew and keep deluding yourself that your failures are victories! Admit your a failure and that you fucked up and start a new chapter!
The Soviets did that in 1990, let's hope we have that kind of intellect and courage to do the same!
Well said sir. Did the people in the House ever understand? Are they starting to get it? I have made it a personal commitment to not step foot in Mordor on the Potomac again until the regime goes away, so my feelers have gone dark over time.
On this we disagree.
Trust me when I say the only thing that will fix it at this point is a "chorus line" of guillotines or 6' ropes. We've had too many opportuunities after G.W.'s re-election to enforce the change that was needed to get us out of Iraq and Afghanistan when we knew it was a lie and did nothing. Then one term of President Remus spoon feeding us our own death sentence with the NDAA, continuing the non-enemy combatant status but carrying it to American citizens, then Libya, then Syria and he's re-elected???!!!!!
Revolutions with blood suck, and you have France as the most obvious example. "Yes" they did the right thing and "no", the power vacuum that ensued is always the consequence.
But when you've made so many bad choices through your own repeated acquiescence to live in that system that you knew would end up destroying you at some point you take your punishment regardless because the choices at that stage in the crisis will be difficult no matter which ones you decide to take.
I'm working on the state and local level. The new systems will have to be bottom up, so that's where I'm concentrating my time and efforts.
It's possible I could be wrong, but we seem to be mirroring the end of the Western Roman empire. To those in Gaul, once the power of the empire went away, Rome ceased to have any relevance.
Sgt
Agree with you completely on the approach with the 10th. The question is which States are we talking about?
I'm in Virginia and it's the one that's got a large accumulation of military bases both active and reserve as well as Naval ports. All bought and paid for and I don't have enough faith on where the majority of the loyalty stands even after all we've witnessed in the last 10 years.
Would like to believe that the active duty will take up with the States when they are asked to start a major war, but the support out there is still too "atomized" and currently at least, I have no way of gauging the strength of support on the issie fo the State vs. the Federal government. The vast majority of the House delegates in Virginia in Richmond might as well be in Washington "swapping spit" with the likes of the Cantor, Wolfe, and Moran crowd. Senator Kaine and Warner complete jokes.
Other States are much stronger on the 10th and the numbers appear to be growing -Hopefully but certainly not enough to make a decisive difference.
But the military and it's ambitions are what clearly needs to be understood. Morale is the worst it has ever been in the U.S. Armed Forces history bar none, and it will be interesting to see given the acts of desperation and folly we are witnessing being acted out in D.C. by our so-called lawmakers of what they may do in"circling the wagons" in order to advance their agenda with another "flag waving 9/11" event!
Too many plates in the air to call it. But I'm not confident with the vast majority of Americans who are still apathetic and are willing to continue the enablement agenda from the guys in Washington!
The American Redoubt is a good place in my estimation. It's far enough from the flagpole, and it's alpine (hard terrain). Virginia is a good state, but it's too close to Mordor for my peace of mind. You do have a lot of like minded people there though.
For a while, I was worried about another 9/11 event. I think that opportunity for them is past. I was concerned they'd nuke a city, but that seems to have been blown a while ago. Things are changing too fast for them to plan and act effectively it seems. They're behind. Hopefully it stays that way.
The more plates the better I say. Their OODA loop is certainly being fucked with in a major way, or so it seems.
Sgt
I hate using the word "hope" (and trust me I use it unconsciously too often) because it implies some spiritual essence in nature or devine intervention to make something right happen without logic or reason.
But yeah, I'll take it at this point given where this Country unfortunately is with it's head firmly wedged up it's own ass!
"And the Americans send in troops dressed as Ukrainian soldiers who fire at Russian troops to instigate further conflict in 3 2 1...,"
No need for that. They'd just pay a local gang, or use one of the proxies they already have there, to do something bloodthirsty and stupid.
Yes, very concerning... Barry go pick up a rifle and show Vlad who's boss. HAHAHAHHAHAA
The US needs to shut the fuck up and stop shoving the government's dick in every fucking spat across the globe.
Barry, Barack, Grand Imperial PooBah, whatever,
The US military isn't going to go die for you and your masters' dreams of world domination anymore. Fuck off. Do it yourself. fucking pussy.
And I would bet that now Eastern Orthodoxy (Eurasia) is the enemy, not Muslims (Eastasia)--"We've always been at war with Eurasia."
"An AR in every room and a guillotine in every garage is the new American dream."
PRESS CONFERENCE BY PUTIN
At 4.45pm President Putin will be making an address to the nation highlighting the abuse that the jobless, the homeless, the gun owners, the gold and silver owners, the savers, the airline travellers and others have suffered at the hands of the US government. He will also highlight the extreme divide between the 1% and the 99% of the population, the lack of any real punishment for bankers who have wroinged both people and the system as well as President Obama's failure to make good on closure of Guantanamo, reigning in the debt and not governing by ignoring congress.
What is Obama gonna do? Write an angry letter? Shake his fist while he makes stern comments?
He knows that there is nothing he can do, the US military would get blown the fuck out in a conventional war against Russia on their turf even if it did not turn into a world war which it most certainly would. The chance of the US beating Russia AND China in a conventional war is zero.
Maybe that's what Obama wants. Just saying...
The military will just stand down. Barry or somebody in State knows this so they would be insane to want to test it. We'll see.
If they try, and the military gives them a "fuck you", the fedgov has just lost legitimacy, queue the hyperinflation and fedgov collapse. The End and good riddance.
I donno about that.
The Ruskies are a great enemy. How many generals have fantasies about going back to the Tom Clancy era again. When big war plans could be formulated with an adversary that wasn't from the 10th century. An adversary that went head-to-head with them Nazzzies and defended them far-n-square in a battle with lines-n-front-n-artillary-n-n-REAL-fightin'-mens-weapons, not this goddamn Muslims on goddamn horses shit. We need somebody WORTHY of all these cool weapons. Hell, i bet them Ruskie got one of them dooms day machines!
Definitely every O-6 and above is a political tool for the regime. But it won't be long into the war drums before soldiers and field grade officers start posting the "I'm not dying for your fanatical dreams" pics and videos on social media.
We haven't won a real conflict in decades. The institutional memory is of tragedy, loss and broken people, and lost treasure. Most good officers and NCOs have left in the last 15 years, or are looking for a way to leave. The American people are tired of war. It's over.
After reading the 6 highlighted comments the head of the article, I can only conclude that the people in this Administration are children, wholly unaware of their own naivete and absurdism.
No, the highlighted comment are FOR the children.
The sociopaths run our society, just like all others.
The sociopaths run our society,...
Don't forget, the Soros / proselyte chosen ones are at the bottom of the current US administration, for better or for worse...
The Ukrainians would be better off doing what the US did over 200 years ago and establish a Constitution based on the rule of law separate and apart from either of the current "players" of a game that should never have been embarked on in the first place.
Sure, they happen to live in a strategically located geographically positioned landmass, but that's someone else's problem not their's. No need to give up soveriegnty because these two forces are vying for favor.
jmo.
Obammy and Putin worked this thing out days ago. Let's all hope that a false flag doesn't derail things. Putin is hedged to the hilt if it does.
Putin's got a pretty good gig going. I wouldn't think he'd want to chain himself to the sinking USS Murika. If anything, he's probably making very calculated moves in hopes the US FEDGOV shoots itself in the face.
He definitely doesn't lack confidence! I mean he charged right in. I have read one or two articles, not much press coverage, on the idea that Germany may align with Russia and China. Could this show of confidence be a result of the shuffling of the cards. I mean look at it. Europe is crumbling. France, Spain, Italy. Do they even have an option, other than to tag along for the ride with Putin.
This very well could end up linking itself to "where's my gold"?
Exactly. Russia is solvent, has quite a bit of gold, and is pretty stable. It's not perfect and I wouldn't want to live there, but for the time being, they'd be a better ally than the fascist and backstabbing USA.
Historically Berlin and Moscow have repeatedly become chummy, regardless of ideology, since they both prefer the map of Europe without Poland on it. That is currently outweighed by German politicians exposure to immense blackmail and threats from the empire.
I can't see them making massive geopolitical waves with their current corrupt puppets, and the other EU vassals are even less likely to do so. Certainly not before Germany does or NATO officially dies.
One must understand what is really at play here.
The US has realised that it has no hope of re-establishing its economic primacy. It therefore can only come out on top by destroying and destabilizing all other nations and areas while enriching the architects of this strategy........military/industrial complex.....which is in turn owned by.........
I'll put it another way.
The USD is shit toilet paper, and in order to make the USD look good, the USA bashes Europe with war, and Japan with bullshit talk (ZH).
All ran by AIPAC, because they are the ones who ran the USD (Fed reserve) into the ground AZC(aipac) has been running the USD since 1910.
Yep, fuck up the world to keep the USD excepted, just another way to kick the can down the road, ...
Don't worry, post war AIPAC will sell the world the IMF-SDR, ... everything is planned.
Words just words. Yea that is all he has.. here is another red line. and another , and another.
"Russia can be part of an international effort to protect Ukraine's sovereignty"?
Time for Mexican uprisings, and then we'll see if "The US can be part of an international effort to protect Mexico's sovereignty." A Russian-led international effort, of course.
And let's not forget "Afghan sovereignty". Did Russia say that "The US can be part of an international effort to protect Afghanistan's sovereignty"? [crickets]
Obama's arrogance, hubris and presumption is beyond belief, were it not true.
Not real clear on what your saying, but Russia got their ass handed to them in Afghanistan as well.
.
you know before i was sort of thinking the idea of a 'split' is absurd. then i realize the 'idea' is being 'leaked' because it's probably being floated as a possibility in some really high up circles to get feedback on it.
there are ways in which a 'deal' to split ukraine works well for the west and gives russia a 'saving' face opportunity to say they expanded their territory by annexing crimea as outright russia. the fact that it seems bad for russia and good for russia while eastern ukraine allying with the nato seems bad for the west and good for the west -----everyone saves face and delays the day of reckioning until real war.
there are so many eirie parrallels to the state of national aggression prior to world war 2 it is scary.
I donno, don't we all wish we could go back to the good-ol-days of Commy Ruskies, the "need" for really cool war toys to counter the super-secret [tanks|airplanes|ships] the Godless Commies were building in vast quantities as they prepared to subject us all the Commie slavery.
God, I miss those days. Ronnie 600+ ship navy, with battleships no-less, we all loved those cool toys.
This might be our chance to return to the glory years, when central state Big-Mic planning made us the envy of the world.
FU BHO.
what if Putin and Obomba just arm wrestle
It's 3:00 AM and Obumbler is in bed 69ing with Reggie love and can't be bothered just like with Benghazi
All these "warnings" directed at Russia by the US are ridiculous.
The US will never directly engage Russian troops because Russia unlike every country in the Middle East can fight back!
Even to this day, Russia possesses an ASSLOAD of nuclear weapons which could annihilate the continental US!
So all these "warnings" are hot air to the extreme.
OBAMA SAYS ‘DEEPLY CONCERNED’ BY RUSSIAN MILITARY MOVEMENTS (Its okay Barry, if you don't mess with them, they won't mess with you. Didn't I hear your union boss calling? I'd be more concerned about that.)
Like Syria, who really knows what's going on over there.
One proxy startin' shit against another proxy.
Innocent people get killed. Politico/coporo/MIC/banksters make out like bandits moving their chess pieces around in their Game of Thrones.
We know that HILLARY&LURCH spent $5 billion USD in buying bombs and guns for the COUP, so that there will never be PEACE in the UKRAINE again.
First Israel soft sold the COUP by giving UKRAINE the bitcoin mining franchise, but that failed, then they hard sold the COUP by using their CIA bitch mercenary army. That failed, and now the AIPAC will go FULL RETARD and use the MSM to destroy all intellectual understanding.
You may not understand what is going on, but dead people and $5 Billion USD don't lie, it was CIA in Syria, and its CIA in the UKRAINE.
glossed over is the question which is the legitimate government of Ukraine,
(a) the one fairly elected by a majority of Ukrainians that wants a monitored plebiscite about the Ukranian government
and which Russia still recognizes as the legitimate government.
or
(b) the minority-backed coup which was funded and incited by the US to seize by armed force government buildings in an ethnic minority region ,
insists on 'monitoring' any future elections by itself using its armed street thugs.
and which the US hypocritically immediately recognized as the indisputable government over all Ukraine.
Bet Putin is just shitting his pants? The Kenyan clown takes to the stage to once again embarrass America!
If Obama REALLY wants to make a difference, he needs to fast-track some visas for the hot Ukrainian babes.
Get them sweeties over here to the U.S. as political refugees.
No wants to hear from you or your gay bankster mercinaries that are mostly from foreign countries. Although if you'd like to have a Russian representative from the Russian troops that you have running around the United States of America we might like to know what the fuck they are doing here--you prick no good treasonous M'Fer.
If Hitler had started WWII now, given the world leaders of today, Hitler would have won. Obama did not threaten any US action because he knows that the US cannot take any action. What can he do? Boycott the 2056 Olympics?
Warned against invading Lybia, Iraq, Syria, ... you name it, the worlds policeman.
Make no mistake if PUTIN doesn't contain the CIVIL-WAR in UKRAINE that OBAMA manufactured, it will spill into Russia.
So its imperative that PUTIN place MIL in Ukraine at strategic points to keep weapons from flowing into Russia.
Make NO mistake the HILLARY&LURCH want to create a CIVIL-WAR in Russia.
*
AIPAC doesn't just want to sell SAUDI oil to EUROPE, now AIPAC wants to STEAL GASPROM and then SELL GAZPROM OIL to Europe.
*
Some say its repetitive to mention AIPAC here, but how in the fucking hell can we have a war, when its illegal to mention the enemys name?
Barry gets his National Security briefing sitting in his lounger watching Sports Center, smoking Kools and flipping through butt porn.
It's sad but there is absolutely no way one can root for the US in international affairs. These democracy uberalles idiots wouldn't dare let the Crimea vote on their future because they'd vote for the Russian Federation over Ukraine by a huge margin.
As mentioned earlier the Ukranians have a right to self determination so long as it's the scumbags from Brussles.
NBC News says the US and EU might threaten to boycott the G8 meeting in Sochi. Putin will need to weigh that ominous threat against losing his Black Sea military bases...or maybe not...
Will the EU boycott the country that supplies its energy?
Our want to be communist leader was never schooled on KGB tactics. For fuck sakes, we can’t even get a honest answer on his schooling records and the PDF layered birth certificate. Let me remind you about the movement.
More Deadly Than War
We have the NSA and the like. Either it is bull shit, or we should have some kind of cyber war abilities. If anything happened on that front, how would we know about it?

Are these costs going to be the same as when Russia invaded Georgia (a NATO member)? If so we can expect the eastern 3/7ths of Ukraine partitioned off as at least a de-facto state in the vein of Abkazia (from Georgia) or Transnistra (from Moldova).
Instead of viewing Saakashvili caught on camera eating his necktie. We’ll see Barry sucking down Reggie’s cock. The Media will tell us Metrofaggotrey is a new politically correct vision.

Doesn't Russia know sending military to invade other countries is only OK when the US does it?
Yeah, the audacity of those dopes...
i'm surprised putin didn't throw down a comment here.
FUCK OBAMA, BOZOMA, BANANA, SHIT HEAD!!!
IF HE IS A MAN, I WOULD LIKE TO SEE HIM GO AHEAD AND START A WAR WITH RUSSIA..
BOBAMA SUCKS AND HE LOVES IT!!!!
Obama says, Obama says, Obama says,,,, Nobody, and I mean NOBODY, gives a Flying Fuck what this poor excuse of a man-FAG has to say. PERIOD!!!
At least the US Navy Seals are on the ground in the Ukraine!

Soon, US Navy Seals are gonna start putting Obama's "Hit Teams" into their own Body Bags! Thats when the fun really begins! Rev 2.0 is on deck and warmed-up...
f16, they don't have the balls - sent into a trap in afgan by our own and they took no revenge, seals are just as dumb as any paid for hit man in the mob. I hope I am wrong but seriously they know the unk who is playing CIC, was a plant by NWO as well as we.
if the Seals revolt, then they donT get one of those high-paying merc jobs (*) nor their retirement.
Why would a Seal do that Rev 2.0 thing for free? Is Rev 2.0 some sort of Open Source where noone gets paid?
(*) merc job at Blackwater or whatever that company's name is this week.
We really need to get out of the knee-jerk habit of asking "What shall the US do?" every time something happens in the world.
Crimea is not among our strategic interests (unless we covet dragging Ukraine into NATO to piss on Putin's shoes again). Crimea is certainly a serious strategic interest of Russia and was only recently ceded to Ukraine by Russia. That's the only warm-water port Russia has and is the permanent home of their Black Sea fleet.
Russia certainly aren't going to wave Crimea good-bye because Mr. Obama whines in their general direction, any more than we'd march out of Guantanimo because Putin expressed similar concerns about preserving the dignity of Cuban sovereignty.
"Internationalists" like Kerry and most of the other ruling class geniuses are seriously dangerous people. They will again lead us to war, one way or another, just as they have ever since the notoriously inept Wilson got the strange new idea that Americans should become policemen for the world.
obama is the most incompetent fraud in american history, ziocon sock puppet extraordinaire, beset with a brain the size of a pygmy gnat's ass.
Considering it was the CIA and Mossad backed coup that placed the current Ukranian govt into power - you can understand why Obama is concerned to maintain it - its what his masters want.
Putin has too much on the line to back down in Ukraine - I am guessing he will start by killing CIA and Mossad ops, and then start on the media shills, political and financial class. I imagine Putin's war in Crimea and Ukraine is going to be fought mostly under the shadows of guns - by assassination, blackmail and intimidation.
Just my take on whats about to happen - though overt military conflict is also very likely - Putin has never been shy in that regard.
big balls? not our prez
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cLCKSPFrkJQ
A country that has been illegally bombing and invading countries for decades should STFU about another country defending its backyard.
i think both sides, Russia and the USSA are playing us. With the huge nuclear stockpiles, nobody's going to war ever again. This drama is just a way for douchebags to make some money. Have we ever been more like Russia in our history? The USSA is the new Russia, unrestrained cronyism, a completely apathetic population...USSA is just letting Russia have a turn at the top-dog spot. They clearly are at this moment.
"no statement on what if anything the US will do"
they won't/can't do a damn thing. that should be obvious.
There will be consequences. hahahaha. King dollar is about to blow up and you are threatening the East who holds the gold of consequences. I think not. You may cause some degree of chaos, but it will be nothing compared to the wrath of the American people to these jackass elected officials.
The winners -> black nobility + banksters. Way of the world, way of the world. Ruling in the shadows always has its benefits.

If possible he should avoid these type of statements as they make him look bad... not that he has much choice, being a politico, mainsteam media star etc requires you do as told... once you sell out, you can't leave... you don't leave 'the family', it leaves you. America hasn't won a real war since WW2, though it's been busy fighting ever since. Good thing we keep picking on weak countries and get so many others to sell out their people and country.
