Ukraine, Cuba, nuclear subs in the Gulf, and now a test firing of an ICBM...Putin is signaling the world as well as Obama about his intentions.

Does Obama have a play left on the chess board, or has he already been defeated?


Oh come the frick on.

He's flexing muscle. That's it for the most part. Please,please tell me what Putin's intentions are.

Exploiting a weak position the US holds due to the inability to enact sanctions on Russia and exploiting the social and governmental upheaval in Ukraine.

His end game could be control of Ukraine but that doesn't have a bunch of benefits other than controlling a lot of land that has Russian pipelines running through it and a little better position within the Black Sea.

He doesn't have a bunch to gain from taking Ukraine IMO.
