Ready for the Eastern Ukrainian Olympic Tracks and Field Competitions??

Ready for the Eastern Ukrainian Olympic Tracks and Field Competitions??

Russian regular Army forces (tanks / infantry FV) massing on Crimea border crossing points and in the Donbass area (disputed Eastern Ukraine).

And the Russian FSB has reportedly prevented a Ukrainian terrorist attack against Russia in Crimea. Maskirovka

Putin has a golden chance to influence our election if he Moves

Seeing Trump has hinted he's good with the annexation of Crimea

"Crimea is and always will remain part of Ukraine," State Department

But Trump doesn’t seem as committed to this position. When asked if his administration would recognize Crimea as Russian territory and lift U.S. sanctions, Trump replied, "We would be looking at that."

Putin through Wikileaks and DNC hacks (allegedly by orgs ties to the FSB), possible ties to people on HC's staff and his possible ties to Trump ans/or staffers is inflencing both sides of the election. There are interesting ties with Manafort, Flynn, Podesta, Stein, CGI, and numerous others. Right now trainwrecks are stopping to look at how effed up we are

Interestingly enough we have been fighting a Light Infantry war for so long that people in our military don't see a need for tanks any more.... In the late 80's Tankers were GODS now they are second class citizens...

Lots of kit in motion over there right now. Big mobilization - for force or for show.

Haha - red headed step children in Europe now - hardly any tanks i NATO compared to the 80s and 90s. In one of the more ultimate ironies, the Poles have as many late model German Tanks as the Germans do.

Not to this degree and not with the kit they are bringing in.
