Ukraine: it's on... I can't help but be reminded of the run-up to WWII, specifically Hitler's deceptions and subsequent invasion of Poland. I also can't help but worry that the West's non-support of Ukraine will lead to further “explorations” by Putin.
Only time will tell. The choices now are Putin's, as the West has already decided to leave Ukraine to its fate. What will Putin do? Will he back off, worried about the reactions from Obama, Merkle, et al? Or will he sense opportunity and start the troops rolling into eastern Ukraine?
My bet is on the latter. I'd love to be wrong...
