Megahurts WTF are you on?
New version of gOOgleearth.
The battle for the Ukraine is over, The US chased out the old leader and they support the new leader and the ones in Crimea as 'somebody' for military help and once that arrived calm has prevailed. The West isn't providing the same sort of coverage as far, as I can tell headlines are fewer that 'the armed gunmen' are releasing.
Was the war to short for your liking?
The thread should now be focused on how fast the West is able to put the Ukraine back on it's wheels so they are 'democratic and free' like promised in the 'Welcome to NATO Brochure'. There can be the 'Cold War II' and in this phase the 'contest' is who can make the lives of the people there the most comfortable for all classes while allowing the heads of state to be on par with other nations in terms of education compared to size of (stolen) bank accounts and the homeless are now 'gardners' in the country club estates that were the norm for past heads of state, rather than lawns they have gardens and fruit trees so they can take care of their own food needs should a disaster cause them to be cut-off from outside aid. If the rest of the Ukraine sees that Crimea is doning just fine and the rset of the Nation is in turmoil who do you think will win in an open election. Today that sort of information cannot be kept a secret and with the maps that are available you can probably predict what will happen on election day if it happened today. A few months down the road some areas could swing away from the current destiny and that could only help Russia because they only took control of an area they were sure to be able to hold onto.
To get the full picture you would have to imagine that protected water as being a version of San Fransisco in the gold rush days in terms of being busy. If raw materials being exported to China is the way to solve those issues then doing the same for the EU would be a similar solution or the taps are turned way down and the locals get it for nothing when it comes to having the basic necessities of life and the population is going to have to develope some sort of talent wanted by foreign markets. (such as things Syria and Iran and Venezuela) could use if they enter a time when they are not under sanctions or other persecutions. Perhaps Peart Moss strands work better than flax or hemp in making composites that are meant for use in/around water environments.
Then there is some new databases for metallurgy and material sciences that plug into some physics software that saves construction time.
Sup with you two? Do you want to repeat all the quotes there have been in past threads? This situation has already deviated from the typical regime change. I don't mind seeing that happen, you (and others) do, I can't help that nor am I going to try.
The Ukraine isn't going to go like Poland in the master plan. If Russia has to show some muscle there to get that point across (in reality and in the press) then they will also be helping in Syria with obvious help, such as you can see. If rebels are being ambushed by over 100 and then multiple strikes by jets in the nearby mountains then it could be that Russia is providing the locations of 'known hang-outs' and that will also not be part of the 'preferred plan' because there is no conquest ambitions by Syria other than her own borders and that would include mineral rights in the Med. Sea.
In other words he doesn't work for anybody but Parliament?
They were the last ones with votes, they could always not cast it and just have it taken away. That is where one of the flaws with democracy come in, the people seldom choose who is on the ballet, they are ususlly only given a choice of a few 'pre-selected' choices and in the end they all take orders from the same people when the doors are closed to the public being able to listen in.
