Ukraine Commander Abducted
A Ukranian air force commander was abducted after pro-Russian forces stormed a base in Crimea, the country’s interim president said Sunday. The Belbek air force base, of which Col. Yuliy Mamchur was commander, was taken Saturday by forces who rammed armored cars through its walls and fired gunshots and stun grenades. It was unclear if the assault was conducted by the Russian military or by a local pro-Russian militia. Several journalists on the scene, including international press, were beaten by the attackers.
Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.

It should be noted that somewhere around 50% and 70% of the Ukrainian soldiers stationed in Crimea have already dumped their Ukrainian passports and have applied for the Russian citizenship.
Even Denis Berezovsky, who was the commander of the Ukrainian navy himself defected to the Russian side.
The current "PM" of Ukraine, Arseniy Yatsenyuk is an American puppet who was illegally made the head of state after overthrowing the democratically elected Victor Yanukovych.

All this seems so unreal to me. All of a sudden, Russian troops take over a part of Ukraine without a single bullet being fired, and the region becomes a part of Russia. It has Russian troops as well as Ukrainian soldiers and air force bases. And the Russians get rough all of a sudden and storm a base of the Ukrainians, who, if news reports are anything to go by, do not even try to put up a token resistance. It does seem like Ukraine has no intention of getting into an armed confrontation with Russia, even though it has lost a vast area of its territory.
Does the US have some tricks down its sleeve then?

lol.. half of their army have defected to Russia along with most of the ships and weapons. I don't think fighting Russia will be a good option right now.
