Is the moron that wrote that aware of Putin's recent essay claiming that Ukraine is part of Russia and needs to be reunited with its "historical motherland".

There's some heavy planes flying over in the early hours and they're not passenger planes. I've heard them on and off for a week now. They sound like thunder.

Why don't you put your self forward as a Russian translator? There seems to be a dearth of them in our media for some reason. I can't fathom why.

Ukraine has at some points in its history been controlled by Russia and later by the USSR. I very much doubt that that is the central issue here. As pointed out by Peter Hitchens above, Ukraine's best bet was to remain a neutral buffer state between Russia and NATO countries.

Over 380,000 civilians have suffered violent deaths as a direct result of US military action in the last 20 years.

But apparently, we can rely upon the US to collate evidence of war crimes in Ukraine.

An excellent article nugnug, which references previous work carried out by BBC and Forbes and UN Development Program, among other organisations.

Did you notice this in the comments section:

There was also an incident in late February 2014 when several busloads of passengers from Crimea returning to Crimea from Kiev were ambushed near Khorsun by neo-Nazi thugs (who’d been tipped off in advance) and were beaten up and tortured. Several passengers apparently died. The survivors fled back to Crimea and raised the alarm, and this led to the special meeting in the Crimean Parliament which resolved to organise the independence referendum.

Of course, this incident near Khorsun has been whitewashed from most search engines or is referred to as a hoax incident

American contractors shooting at cars in Iraq

Different situation Rochski. The Ukranian's are not going to be carrying out suicide bombing via cars nor do the Russians have contractors.

These were an elderly couple (NSFL)
