I'm just your average american bitcoiner who is very tired of what I see as american/western imperialist incursions into other countries. Call me crazy, I don't care, but I do believe that 9/11 was a false flag and that MH17 was similarly a false flag scenario.
I never said the separatists were saints, but if you were to believe the MSM over here or keymone2, there are no actual Ukrainians among the militia.. it's all Russian Terrorists (lolz), Russia is responsible for all the civilian deaths, Russia shot down MH17 with a Buk and the new Ukraine government are all heroes who deserve to be in power (as opposed to puppets who take orders from the West.)
Anyway, it's all horseshit, so I post what I see as credible up to date evidence of what is actually going on.
In fact, most of what I post are simply youtube videos showing the atrocity... vids of white phosphorus and artillery killing civilians, and the occasional military updates.
In my opinion, the US wants Russia to invade Ukraine so they can get NATO involved and escalate further.
So far, Russia ain't takin the bait.
Militia forces are composed of 19-23k Soldiers, current active Ukraine army forces are something like 48-52k. But the militia is holding their own pretty well despite being heavily outnumbered.
Russia could swoop in and end the whole thing in a week, but they are not.
"no actual Ukrainians among the militia.. it's all Russian Terrorists (lolz), Russia is responsible for all the civilian deaths, Russia shot down MH17 with a Buk and the new Ukraine government are all heroes who deserve to be in power (as opposed to puppets who take orders from the West.)"
i actually am NOT claiming ANY of these and you are free to go through my posts to confirm that
"no actual Ukrainians among the militia" there are ukrainians just as you could gather bunch of crooks and genuinely misguided/misinformed people in any country against it's government. separatists just abused momentary chaos in the country and of course general pro-russian sentiment always existing in that area and in media.
"Russia is responsible for all the civilian deaths" russia is not the guy hitting the buttons but it's largely russia that i blame for escalation of separatist conflict especially with regard to people taking weapons and starting to shoot everyone. for comparison when yanukovich did something lot's of people didn't like - tens(permanently) and hundreds(occasionally) of thousands people gathered for peaceful protest and with occasional escalations it remained peaceful for 3 MONTHS during WINTER - just consider that for a moment.
"Russia shot down MH17 with a Buk" separatists shot down MH17 with Buk - at least that's the most plausible option that i see from all the information, we can go through all the facts together if you'd like. just the fact that main separatist and russian media have reported that separatists have shot down another ukrainian AN26 and using video of crash smoke from MH17 to prove that is a HUGE indication to who is responsible - don't you think?
"new Ukraine government are all heroes who deserve to be in power" they are the next iteration and there will be more, unfortunately that's the way politics in urkaine work. the good thing here is that ukrainians got sick of previous president and actually rioted against him. nobody is saying it can't happen to current president but as for "deserve to be in power" - well he did get majority of votes in ukraine no matter how you count so that kinda stands.
"vids of white phosphorus" vids of white phosphorus and no vids of bombing site? no horribly burned people? seriously you just saw something slightly similar to phosphorus and assumed the worst without actually trying to assess available evidence.
in the end it seems like you're one of those who just wants to see world burn and shatter just for sakes of destroying current political establishment in US. if you hate your government and it's all so bad and nothing could be worse - why don't you just move and live in russia? isn't it the ideal country that you'd like to win in this conflict and have world built after it's model? i don't think you realize how much horrible world would be if russia and US would switch places..
No. I'm saying they missed to check their sources and the information itself before released the news. Are you saying that Jen Psaki blatantly lied and spread Ukrainian propaganda when she placed Astrakhan next to the Ukrainian border
?
i don't know anything about psaki but let me ask you this - considering that report on russian media and apparent absence of apology for incorrectly accusing ukraine in using BALLISTIC FUCKING MISSILES
what do you think the result is? how many more people are even angrier now at ukraine? how many are more sure that ballistic missiles are used? how many more separatists will join forces based solely on that reporting?
it seems you're completely taking out of equation effect media has on people's judgments and decisions.
