Putin's Crimea Aim Is To Make The West Look Weak
"It is a textbook KGB-led operation: the agent provocateur, followed by a self-organized militia, then Russian military protection to defend 'their’ people. The tactic was used to good effect throughout the Soviet period in Communist coups. It’s what brought down the government of Afghanistan and caused 30 years of war. And again it is unlikely to be resisted."
