#11  If the Ukraine is taken, then Georgia would fall giving pipeline access to Armenia and south into Iran and the TBC pipeline from Azeri. Nordstream 2 back online and the Baltics would be in the crosshairs.How strong is the NATO glue? Remember the Chinese delegation to Afghanistan. A Paki pipeline and Soviet naval base was always a dream. we will know soon if we are seeing the beginning of something with far greater global implications than Ukraine. Putin is old and wants a legacy. You can bet China is watching the reaction, the time to expand, perhaps re-draw and solidify sphere's of influence in the Pre-cold war sense may be here. A Ruso-Sino alliance would be formidable.

#9  Murcek, some are based in Poland and Lithuania. Both sites are well within its range. We might have some operating out of Turkey as well.

#8  Apparently, lots of the recent US aerial surveillance of Ukraine was done by RQ-4 Global Hawks. Where did they fly from?

#7  Would be great fun to tell the Paki's: "We're out of Afghanistan and don't need your access/logistics, so no more $ and fuck right off"

#5  Our morons in charge will send them aid. They love giving it away.

#4  Meh, go ahead. You can enjoy getting Russian jets now instead of US ones (oh, and Egypt just canceled its deal for S-35s cuz they suck and couldn't out perform the Rafale jets).

And no more aid for you. Toodles!

#3  Don't let the door hit you on the way out.
Wonder if this will push India toward the US? I would think India would have a hard time buying arms from Putin while he is supporting the Paks.
