Do we think that's the "rebels" still or main force vs main force and open war?

Hard to say, on the one hand we know that Russian troops are there, on the other, Putin would rather not use his own forces and risk losing the support of the Russian people (or his generals) due to heavy casualties.

The public intelligence indicates this is the regular Russian forces.

Putin just spoke.

He's one to talk about support for neo-nazi's considering he regularly rides with the Night Wolves Motorcycle Club.

Biden condemns Russia's "unprovoked and unjustified attack on Ukraine"
In a statement early Thursday morning, US President Joe Biden condemned Russia's actions, shortly after Russian President Vladimir Putin announced military action in the Donbas region of eastern Ukraine.
Biden's statement:
The prayers of the entire world are with the people of Ukraine tonight as they suffer an unprovoked and unjustified attack by Russian military forces. President Putin has chosen a premeditated war that will bring a catastrophic loss of life and human suffering. Russia alone is responsible for the death and destruction this attack will bring, and the United States and its Allies and partners will respond in a united and decisive way. The world will hold Russia accountable.
Biden added that he is monitoring the situation from the White House, and will meet with the other G7 leaders in the morning. He will announce "further consequences" imposed on Russia by the US and its allies tomorrow, he said.

Then this will be over by morning at this rate.

Explosions heard in Ukraine's Kramatorsk and near Kyiv
From CNNs Tim Lister and Ingrid Formanek in Kyiv
CNN teams in the Ukrainian capital Kyiv are hearing explosions come from the east, in the direction of the international airport.
Reports on social media indicate several explosions in the Boryspil area to the east of the capital, where the international airport is located.
Two people in the Ukrainian city Kramatorskalsotold CNN they have heard at least two massive explosions in the early hours of Thursday.

I kind of hoped Ukraine would put up more of a fight. But I guess this is all that can be done.
I am so sorry everyone in the Ukraine. If you can get to Canada, we welcome you.

A single air burst at the right altitude would cause an EMP that would fry electronics for an entire hemisphere.

Putin threatens "those who may be tempted to intervene" in Russia's military action
From CNN's Darya Tarasova and Nathan Hodge in Moscow
After Russian President Vladimir Putin announced he had ordered military action in Ukraine early Thursday, he threatened "those who may be tempted to intervene" on Ukraine's behalf.
"Now a few important, very important words for those who may be tempted to intervene in ongoing events from the outside," Putin said. "Whoever tries to interfere with us, and even more so to create threats to our country, to our people, should know that Russia's response will be immediate and will lead you to such consequences as you have never experienced in your history. We are ready for any development of events. All necessary decisions in this regard have been made. I hope that I will be heard."

And the American embassy basically told our own citizens in Ukraine they're not receiving any aid, and said citizens should either catch the first flight they can out of the country or count themselves SoL. -.-

He'd try to convince us all that this is the best, most beautiful thing that is happening, and that our citizens over there are in the best of care. His usual defenders on this site would quote him and Fox on this, and laugh at everyone else for even trying to so much as exposit the actual truth of the matter, no matter how much evidence exists contrary to the Fox/Trump propaganda.

Is Biden much better? We've all known he sucks for his own reasons, but come on. At least we are still able to find and share the facts without anyone screaming "Deep state!" or "Fake news!" at every turn. At least the incompetent old man in office isn't an obvious lapdog to Putin.
