  1. Maidan didn't shoot down helicopters with missiles and didn't storm military and police with AKs. They also didn't kidnap, torture and kill people. They also didn't rob banks and car dealerships. They also didn't want to break apart the country. Do I need to go on?

  2. shakemasta These geniuses first elected Yanukovich (he won because of the south-east blind Russian support), a convicted felon. He then pretty much bankrupted the country by stealing together with his buddies from that same region.... And now... These geniuses are upset about their life standards (common complaint) and want to join Russian to bail them out. Not even worth talking about the Russian brainwashing about Nazis and fascists.

  3. They are not all from Russia. There are plenty of brainwashed Ukrainian citizens. Those who are uneducated and choose to only watch RT and other Kremlin sponsored media (pretty much all Russian media) are an easy pray. Many don't have internet access, especially older generation... So they simply see the world through Russian propaganda.

  4. Bingo. You pretty much nailed it. I don't have the stats you mentioned but I've heard something similar on many occasions through the years.  I'm sure it's not 1/4 but it's a known gangster/mafia region.  No wonder bank trucks and car dealers are being robbed. This is like kids in Disney World for most of them. If the authority is not restored, all businesses will be taken over by gangs and mafia... Those who want "independence" don't know what they are asking

  5. Vladislav Bondarenko Haha. This is 21st century. Maybe you also want to bring up examples from Ancient Greece? I also fail to see how grabbing Crimea and destabilizing East is Russia "stepping up the game".

  6. @ Stephen Allen 1.  Look up the definition of "junta". 2.  Ukrainian military is not fascist (even though all those zombies scream "fascists" at these poor guys). 3.  Ukrainian government is not fascist.  "Fascist" is being thrown around very lightly here.  There is a tiny minority of nationalists in the gov (less than 10% I think).  Russia has the same type of nationalists (ever heard of Zhirinovsky and his party?).  There are obviously some fascist radicals (like in every country and they come out during chaos) but it's not the government. 4.  The Russian Language issue should be put to bed because it was just a proposal and never got passed.  Moreover, this was simply a proposal to go back to the way it was before Yanukovish.  Was it a mistake to even bring up the language law?  Yes.  But you gotta be kidding me if you think this warrants what these separatists/terrorists are doing now.

  8. 123rmillan It's so connivent for you to paint everything black and white. I'm not supporting Right Sector at all. I support honest government. If it wasn't for Right Sector, maidan would still be waiting for Yanukovivh pig to step down or even worse, Maidan would be dispersed and we are back to stealing the country budget. You expect engineers, doctors, etc. to break through police cordons? But hey, it's your right to paint hundreds of thousands demonstrators as radical fascists and as a result the entire government.

  9. I hope normal people don't think this is the face of Ukraine.  These imbeciles don't even know the definition of junta.
