The Ukraine Situation

Glenny Reynolds has a good take on the situation in Ukraine, which isn't getting nearly enough attention in the US.

Update: I missed this earlier, but Clay Calhoun's site also has info from a former Congressman who was in the Ukraine as an election observer. Very disturbing information is revealed:

Russian special forces dressed in Ukrainian Special forces uniforms are in Kyiv. Ukrainian militia have been instructed by the mayor to protect the people from the Russian troops. Ukrainian militia have established a hotline for Ukrainians to report any incidents with the Russians and pledged to protect Ukrainians.

It appears that the Russians are messing around in their neighbors politics, much like the US used to in Latin and South America during the 20th century. Not good, not at all.
