So whose 20 something hinds are those flying over the border then? Berkut didn't have those Whose marines are surrounding the Coast Guard station? You want me to believe this isn't Russia? Come on.
Cooler heads will prevail.
[QUOTE=Zillamaster55;44078136]I hate to be stereotypical, but until you end up seeing markings, their equipment at a distance is going to be hard to differentiate between Ukrainian or Russian, since it's all Soviet :v:[/QUOTE] Their uniform is Russian, some of the gear is also Russian.

I know nothing of the more modern Russian and Post-Soviet armies, sorry.

[QUOTE=Laserbeams;44077926]And I consider it a highly misleading title Russia can't actually threaten our borders because of [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budapest_Memorandum_on_Security_Assurances[/url][/QUOTE] the pen is mightier than the sword until the sword cuts the desk in half.
[QUOTE=mdeceiver79;44077947]If you don't consider it a legitimate government, as the russian gov don't, then you might not consider it an invasion.[/QUOTE] I don't think the Canadian government is legitimate. I'm going to go tank control of their maple syrup refineries.
[QUOTE=goon165;44078181]the pen is mightier than the sword until the sword cuts the desk in half.[/QUOTE] So we can have nukes again if Russia takes Crimea? Sounds like a good deal to me
[QUOTE=Laserbeams;44077926]And I consider it a highly misleading title Russia can't actually threaten our borders because of [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budapest_Memorandum_on_Security_Assurances[/url][/QUOTE] I think if things really came to blows none of the signatory countries would really care. It'd be like Austria in World War III, everyone guarantees they're neutral but they wouldn't stay out. E: (4) not to use nuclear arms against Ukraine. heh "ALRIGHT, WE SIGNED THIS TREATY BUT WE SURE AS HELL WANT TO NUKE YOU"
As long as it stays very far from here, let's go WW3!!! Go E.U!!!
[QUOTE=Tureis;44078092][media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2TVyPiHVZ1A[/media] Looks like more than 7 :v:[/QUOTE] 7 were invited. The rest weren't.

[QUOTE=woolio1;44077886]Let's be honest, we all saw this coming. Nobody really expected Putin to just let go of his new purchase that easily, did they?[/QUOTE] From what I read from other news threads that were about Russians hovering around Ukraine people were like ''Pfft, they're not gonna go in there''. Probably misread though.
[QUOTE=Laserbeams;44078188]So we can have nukes again if Russia takes Crimea? Sounds like a good deal to me[/QUOTE] theres a reason why russia says it isnt invading and saying that they dont know who those men are they dont want to violate the agreement yet but even if they do nothing will happen
[QUOTE=usaokay;44078200]Splinter military overseen by a warlord who inexplicably looks like Van Damme.[/QUOTE] Oh, alright.

Maybe they are hiding a secret facility they built beneath those aiports like that one in Denver.
[QUOTE=OnDemand;44078236]Maybe they are hiding a secret facility they built beneath those aiports like that one in Denver.[/QUOTE] With labs! And monsters!
Title made me think there were waves of tanks covered by artillery barrages rolling over the border.
[QUOTE=Laserbeams;44077926]And I consider it a highly misleading title Russia can't actually threaten our borders because of [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budapest_Memorandum_on_Security_Assurances[/url][/QUOTE] They broke #3 #4 is kind of duh #2 has yet to happen #1 is iffy
[QUOTE=antianan;44078246]With labs! And monsters![/QUOTE] So those guys at the airport are actually Stalkers, it all makes sense now.
They are MJ12 troops it was obvious from the beginning

[QUOTE=antianan;44078246]With labs! And monsters![/QUOTE] If it was all some special Russian operation to stop Ukraine from accidentally creating Kaiju then... ...make sure the Russians fail at it :v:
[QUOTE=Laserbeams;44078188]So we can have nukes again if Russia takes Crimea? Sounds like a good deal to me[/QUOTE] they don't actually have to breach those treaties, they could say that they do not recognize the authority of the new Ukrainian government and act on the behest of the former president who's authority they do recognize and they would obviously agree to maintain these treaties if they are reinstated into power. and with two major ports and the international airport for the region secure they could bring as many troops in as they wanted as fast as they wanted, and with half the country being pro-russian also set them up for operations without too much trouble. Putin is insane remember?
[QUOTE=Turing;44078179]do you really imagine they purchased over 300+ uniforms to play russians????[/QUOTE] I don't know who these guys are. Neither does anyone else because they wear uniform with no markings, don't tell who they are and no one takes responsibility for them. These people, however: [img]http://i.imgur.com/fmC97EK.jpg?1[/img] [img]http://i.imgur.com/EwNXHxz.jpg?1[/img] are absolutely [b]not[/b] soldiers of the same detachment. The guy on the second picture also has "Cherepashka" vest which is not standard military gear, it's FSB spetsnaz equipment. As I've already said, I do not know who these people are, but neither does anyone else, they might or might not be Russian military.
The man with cigarette in his mouth looks like he's seen it all.
Putin should Pullout. He's the textbook definition of a powermonger.
[QUOTE=Zambies!;44078285]The man with cigarette in his mouth looks like he's seen it all.[/QUOTE] Well, it's probably old hat to him since he was presumably in the country when the USSR fell apart.
