Now it is time for more nations to step up and join in preventing military incursions, land grabs, under pretext, as Russia and Mr. Putin have done in and to Ukraine. Here is dialogue I got today, a few minutes ago. It struck me hard as I am going on age 75, have lost friends to military...

It will be many years before Russia is entrusted with Olympics. Bias of Russian judges showed through very much!

Interesting but in some instances naive points of view on Putin, it is Putin leading Russia, not the good people themsleves. But recent economic/oil and gas history shows factually: 1. Saudi Arabia and the major Middle East oil producers have and will again, as needed, increase the world's...

If you condone the ex-regime run by the Taliban in Afghanistan, complicit in the World Trade Towers bombing, which killed men, women, and children (there were nurseries inside the WTT for children of some female workers) ...then why not go back to the violence in today's Pakistan and get out of...

Israel is mad at President Obama over Iran. But you already knew this fact. My answer, unlike many I do post here with factual backup Internet references, dealt with the democratic world members of the UN who voted YES. Look at the politics of the NO votes: Here is the by country name vast...

I, for one, as a "Westerner" do not and never will accept land and population grabs at gun point. You clearly don't appreciate the meaning of "democracy" as we know it in the West. The fact that all but about 5 nations of the total UN General Assembly have condemned Russia and Putin and ask...

Objective data I read suggests defections to Russian military in just seized parts of Eastern Ukraine are proportional to Ukraines and other ethnic groupings to the Russian ethnic grouping in that part of Ukraine, about a 60% defection of soldiers rate. With Putin now "saying" Russia will...

To me, it appears that Russia has been tip toeing to take over Ukraine military base by military base. On the other hand Russia has abandoned a very few old military posts in Eastern Ukraine which Russia itself held ever since Ukraine became a free of Russia nation.

Romania has pretty good natural gas reserves. But I agree, less in the case of oil. PAGE LAST UPDATED ON MARCH 11, 2014 The World Factbook Mine was a cynical comment about "shortage" of gas and oil. Dull American humor! Try Kiev and Moldavo?

If you study the maps of Ukraine I posted here yesterday, Thursday, March 27, 2014, the "juxtaposition" of massed Russian troops, armor, and combat helicopters seems focused dually on both Kiev and could easily also swing left and attack Romania. Just what Russia needs, Romanian oil fields...

The divisions behind the Ukraine crisis The US and EU have imposed economic sanctions on Russia over its annexation of Crimea from Ukraine. Russian and Crimean leaders signed a treaty absorbing the peninsula into the Russian Federation following a disputed referendum. The crisis has exposed...

All worldwide major media now report Russian troops numbering more than 88,000 plus tanks and attack helicopters are massed on the Ukrainian border...expected by ME as the writer of this article to invade/attack within the current 24 hours. I wouldn't bank on "only" more economic sanctions if I...

Your mistake is that much if not all of the WMD agents were found after Desert Storm I. If you will take the time to open and read all of these postings, you will recognize that I have shown you the good, the bad and the ugly, not a one side picture. Wikileaks documents show WMDs found in Iraq...

1. There are no "atheists" in fox holes in a hot war or fight. 2. Religiously speaking as a Christian. God created the heavens and the earth. 3. The Holy Bible begins with God, not with philosophic arguments for His Existence. 4. Scripture gives no data for determining how long ago the...

In Iraq, fyi, we did find WMD, buried in the desert outside Baghdad. Belgian allied forces found those WMD. The rest of Iraq's WMD, particularly poison gas, was transported by Saddam's military to Syria. The Baathist Party in both Iraq and Syria are one and the same party. The US and her...
