  1. People like Douglas Mcgregor are an amazing resources especially when dealing with a global issue that has more misinformation about it than one can keep track of.

  2. @David Glickman, the Naval capabilities needed to surround a place like Crimea while it's occupied by a force like Russia is something few nations have. Aside from America, I'm not sure there is a nation with the naval and logistical capabilities to pull it off. If Ukraine wants Crimea, it will have to go with a land invasion and take it by force. Which at this point seems nearly impossible. Things change with time though so we'll see.

  4. @105 031. The Russians see Crimea is a life or death geo strategic asset. They will literally do anything to hold it.

  5.  @AM-mu2kv  If you go back far enough this is absolutely true. Crimea is native Tatar territory. It's odd how two sides who don't really even own the place are fighting over it. The problem is how many Crimean Tatars are actually left, especially after the Russian meted out insane ethnic cleansing campaigns against them in the past? The sad reality is that now the Russians have Crimea and I don't think they'll ever give it back to anyone and will resort to anything including nukes to keep it. Crimea is now Russian territory and will probably remain so. :O(

  6.  @IusedtohaveausernameIliked  Bluster is one thing, all strong men are known for it. Crimea is another matter all together. It isn't an issue which is grandstanding for one man. The Russians (Putin or no Putin) believe it's strategic importance to be a matter of life and death for Russia. So again, they will defend it at all costs. Again don't listen to what they say look at what they do. They have a full blown war going on in Ukraine proper, they are losing ground in many areas yet most of their military resources are still going to defend Crimea which isn't really under threat right now. Putin or no Putin, Russia won't give Crimea up without a serious blood bath and possibly WW3.
