Russian forces occupy the Crimea.

My linux OS plays it fine

I have an older computer and my hard-drive is out. I was using a Xubuntu live disc to bypass the hard-drive to get on the internet...now, when I try to use the Xubuntu disc, my computer freezes up and won't run it anymore...I'm using SliTaz now, (another Linux program),to get online and I can't play the videos. So what am I doing wrong?

I would think that people would be much more favorably inclined towards a super power that didn't win very often. It may be that the USA is more popular than it is taken seriously, which happens when you have a country with a lot of money and disastrous spending habits.

In any case, I don't see what we would do militarily against Russia. Are there any nations that would, at this point, agree to allow the USA to drag them into another war? I can't imagine that there would be popular support for sending armed forces abroad after we have spent the last decade complaining that we aren't bringing the troops home quickly enough.

Well, I don't know. Frankly I do not really pray every day for a military intervention by the US or something, I'm not pathetic as to hope that someone else might come to my rescue, like a little princess.

But as for the US, since it styles itself as a super power, a major player who claims to be the police of the world(evidenced by its "war on terror") should actually be able to back this claim up.
When we Turks were a superpower, we used to get involved into the matters of other countries quite often. We paid the price. So must the US, if it wishes to continue its facade.

Yeah well, we can still kick your Turkish asses...
