Why does the former Prime Minister of Ukraine Belief that Putin is Orchestrating a full Invasion of the Ukraine? Why should Georgia and other nearby countries be worried?
Russia has a lean and hungry look. Such a nation under Putin is very dangerous. The world helped Russia recover its economy and pride after political and economic collapse. But, Russia mentality is almost a mirror image of that of Germany after WWII.
Rather than work for world peace and resolve its failures which are immense by any standards, it has activated a self destructive strategy of an addict. Weak man of world in terms of worthwhile human contributions Russia is now anchored through Putin and his cronies to the past failures of its failed Siberian punishment narrow prospective system. The children of a Russia have been duped by a man without morals or spine.
Did Russia Orchestrate an Invasion and Dupe the Crimean People as a Prelude to Invading the Ukraine? Why it's Naive to think Russia would stop at the Ukraine.....
The Crimea is no accident after Georgia. Russia wants its empire back...

Has Britain become a nation of real estate agents? If so, then what hope is there for matching maturities of assets and liabilities and finally ending the permanent cash flow debt repayment crisis? Is British capitalism self destructing into money supply based wishes and dreams rather than business realities that provide good incomes.
Seems the bankers want a crisis forever.
Can't they see the problem and what is happening to the real economy of Britain. Can't they see unsustainability of the house building and a principal sector because it dies not provide competitive jobs. Who is going to pay for all the new houses and with what incomes? What is the capacity to absorb new immigrants?
Has Cameron not learned the history of the causes of economic depressions and what caused the first and second Great Wasr or did he miss that university year?
Yankees can't be blamed this time or is that wrong because an 'inexperienced' Canadian / US banker is at the helm of the Bank of England?
No hope.... Naw..... None....

How Moscow Is Moving To Destablize Eastern Ukraine - SPIEGEL ONLINE
Russia needs to get its own house in order and is suddenly more vulnerable to world reaction than it thinks...
Message from Arthur Lake regarding removal of a hundred plus year old tree on Durham Street
Hi David,
We just arrived back from Florida yesterday and listened to your message about destruction of a hundred plus year old tree this morning. That's the one my mother defended over fifty years ago. I do not take this lightly.
Most of the trees in Kincardine were planted for a purpose. Why is that not even being taken into account.
What are these people thinking? Are they out of their minds. Do they not think about nature at all?
The artist / canopy value of the tree, which is easiest one of town's tallest, is obviously more than these town people recognize.
My position is that if the tree on Durham Street in Kincardine is sound it should NOT be removed for HUMAN CONVENIENCES NO MATTER HOW IMPORTANT THEY SEEM at this time.
How many thousand protestors do you want?
Is there no protection order on valuable town assets?
If I remember correctly the tree is sound and I will work with you to stop the removal. At the very least, your property value will depreciate about $30K so you should be recompensed.
Who are they key players?

Russia's big mistake will undo decades of peaceful progress because Putin has an inferiority complex? No one trusts a give-it-back nation.... Putin diminishes those leaders of Russia, who recognized past wrongs despite their ruthlessness. Putin does not get it?
All bets are off for international cooperation in the face of Putin's grab for Crimea. He wants to reverse a clock, but he does not see the realities of the modern world. He is such a slime creator.
No respect now internationally for Russia, who hosted the recent Olympics. It was all for show. Such hypocrisy! We are so great Russia says. We are really so lost. Bastard expression of crocodile love for sport!
Russia is the big loser in a strong world that recognizes economics rather than military excursions. What next, Canada invade Pierre de M. Copy cat aggression really does lead to world war and Russia has not learned any lessons of its own shameful past as home to a bad bad history of oppression and aggression. The wolf is a wolf and the world recognizes that, despicable as it is.
The world is forever changed and Putin is too stupid to realize his dangerous mistakes. Idiot Tsars bring responses far in excess of original expectations no matter how seemingly justified.
Might is not right, it just produces entities that are mightier and more dangerous.
Russia realizes that world war is now inevitable...
Putin creates the modern Fascists he supposedly hates.
Maybe the Tartars should now reclaim the Crimea from Russia. Were they the original Russians?
By his actions, Putin has destroyed a flower, and will reap poison.
There are better ways to do politics and Putin is a stupid stupid idiot.

Putin is not so great at war games. He moved too quickly and fouled the field.

Sketches from scratches is a provocative blogspot that has grown out of the Wuh Lax experience. It is eclectic, which means that it might consider just about anything from the simple to the extremely difficult. A scratch can be something that is troubling me or a short line on paper. From a scratch comes a verbal sketch or image sketch of the issue or subject. Other sites have other stuff that should really be of interest to the broad reader. I try to develop themes, but variety often comes before depth.
