#1 Can't wait for the Russians to start on Estonia.

Just think...a NATO member and an European Union member. Not sure I have enough popcorn.

Just feel sorry for the Estonians. They are nice people and are so proud have having given the Russians the boot.

Re the Ukraine: glad by paternal grandparents left.

#2 AFAIK despite MSM-Net inferences there's still nothing official from the "People's Republic of Lugansk/Luhansk" + "Moldova", but I guess its safe to say their declarations are forthcoming.

* IIRC VOICE OF RUSSIA - PACE REFUSES TO SEE THAT UKRAINE IS ON VERGE/AT RISK OF TOTAL NATIONAL SPLIT - LAWMAKER [Alexei Pushkov].

Vlad thus far is doing all the right things in Russia's strategic interests, both agz NATO-EU as well as agz the Soon-to-be-Nuclear Hard Boyz + Islamic Nations - despite international criticisms, Vlad is giving the US + NATO-EU an opportunity to cooperate + "share" an independent sovereign Ukraine.

As various MSM-Net Artics have denoted, VLAD = RUSSIA'S FEAR IS THE SOON-TO-BE-NUCLEAR HARD BOYZ + ISLAMIC NATIONS - AMONG OTHER REASONS, HE WANTS DE FACTO RUSSIAN CONTROL OF THE BLACK SEA AS HEDGE
AGZ NUCLEAR UNCERTAINTY VEE NUCLEAR ISLAM INCLUD INUCLEAR ISLAMIST/ISLAMIC RADICALISM.

THE REAL CRUX IS WHAT WILL OBAMA-THE-PRO-US-NATIONALIST-VS-OBAMA-THE-ANTI-US-GLOBALIST, + SECSTATE JAAWHN, ETAL. DO IN RESPONSE TO THE LATEST TROUBLES OR ESCALATIONS IN UKRAINE'S SOUTHEAST.
