2,000 Russian Troops Land in Crimea

. . . . . .
the crimean war was fought not because of crimea but because of russian influence in even further expanding to turkey and even taking Constantinople back, it was only fought mostly at crimea giving the war its name

Don't you ever look at it, We definitely join ranks with Turks to defends it no matter what:)

Funny part is they quietly moved in without any badges took over important institutions in Crimea within like 2 days and is already disarming Ukrainian soldiers.. The Entire thing is going on while west threatens Russia NOT to intervene militarily... Kind Hilarious ... PUtin again making obama and Europe look like an clueless monkey

Dafaq...Russian flags are beginning to be raised in Ukranian mainland cities of Kharkov and Donestk...they are not even in Crimea
You kids aren't very bright, are you? Yeah, Russia may manage to peel Crimea from Ukraine, but in the long run this little display of childish behavior plays directly into western hands. Any Ukrainians who wished closer ties with Russia, and indeed most of her neighbors, will take note of this little fit. Any doubts most had of closer ties to the west will be erased, and true Russian face and intentions toward their neighbors revealed. This may play well with domestic Russian market....but lost most goodwill in the region. When the EU goes to people in the region and says "the Russians just want to occupy you and steal land"....well, they have this to point to. Ask the Poles, Balts, Georgians, etc....how this will play.

And I think you'll suddenly see more and better arms flowing to the rebels (or whatever they are) in Syria. Assad probably isn't a happy camper right now.
