Good stuff. Only thing I’d add is a general attack on a whole load of journalists and news organisations who should have known better than to repeat unverified information and allegations from blatantly biased sources (on both sides) in an incredibly opaque, constanfly-shifting situation while the “OMG RUSSIA’S INVADED IT’S LIKE HUNGARY / CZECHOSLOVAKIA / GEORGIA ALL OVER AGAIN COLD WAR OMG!! 11!!111!!!” hysteria was going on yesterday.

Not that I expect today to be much better, but maybe the lack of a new Iron Curtain springing up ovefnight may calm a few of them down a little. As a journalist myself, it was embarrassing to watch. Credulous nonsense, interpersed with ignorant speculation.
