Some people are so naive. Kiev didn't want any humanitarian convoy not because it could deliver any weapons (which is bullshit), but because they need to stop shelling Lugansk now. That's their strategy, destroy cities and call it a liberation. Humanitarian convoy get destroyed and that part of Ukraine Kiev controls no longer exists. So it gives separatists even more time. Then they can go on counter offensive.
So what's your problem, my Polish "brother"?
You perpetrate a coup, declare yourself a ruler of Ukraine, start a civil war, shell cities full of civilians and if Red Cross can't "escort" Russian convoy BECAUSE of that shelling, you whine about Russian invasion.

Oh, I see you forgot that beating of politicians that didn't agree with it. And that elections were to be held on 29 March 2015.
Stealing.. oh, funny. Every Ukrainian politician is stealing, hell, they even stole our gas, because they couldn't pay their bills and Russians didn't want to send them more gas for nothing.
Mmmmm, smells like Tymchuk. Seriously, whats that with Ukrainians and grainy sat-images with the quality of Google satellites?

You miss that 1 (or 2?) week when "another country" could inspect said convoy but choose bitching and frowing a tantrum instead.
Again, what? I think you understand it quite well that after what happened there is no chance that there will be voted another Russian puppet, thats what all fuss is about. It's normal part of democracy to overthrow current system if it does not work properly, especially if next steps are resolved by voting.
Aaaand since when "normal part of democracy" consists of taking gotherment buildings by mob? As far as I know the only time (in the last century) president of our Democracy Model™ got his ass kicked (poor Dick, he only wanted to spy on his opponents) out it was nice and clear impeachment, not a freacking revolution. And more to the point: why storming gotherment offices in Kiev is democracy, and doing exactly the same in Donetsk - bloody treason?
In another news: rebels reported (and still continue to do so) today about pretty big (well relatively, in comparison to 2 latest months) advances on Kiev's forces, some reports even say about retaking cities near Severodonetsk and Lisichansk (was abandoned a month ago). Although I wouldn't rule out usual infobuzz/bullshit I certainly hope it is true.

Also, don't bulls$%t about "illegitimate government" if Poroshenko was another Russian puppet there would be no problems, right? Then suddenly everything is alright. It only shows the true nature of this conflict. That Russia will not stop until it will regain control of Ukraine (or at least they will try to not stop).
Putin's mistake is the following in my humble opinion:
When the first Russian fell dead on East Ukraine, he should had issued a full military retaliation on the aggressors. I mean the US do the same w/t even waiting for an American to die.
First of in maidan nationalist was very careful (mostly) about destruction, they even put cloth over statues ect, they didn't used others as meat shield, they practically was weaponless and most important part they were THE CORE of Ukraine population not some Russian immigrants.
Now Russian rebels are armed & dangerous, have non-civilian equipment, and most of them are pro-russians and russian by nationality. Use civilians as meat shield and have unreasonable requests - which practically are to give territory to Russia. And those rebels don't care about destruction.
Terrorists are people who not want to overthrow but want to divide something that is whole already. There is great difference between overthrowing current system and divide territory that wants to join in neighbour country.

I had quite an experience with religous people, so i would just say - i don't believe you. I have seen how you talk you only pretend to be neutral to gain weight for your opinion.

You are talknig about current events which are results of 4-5 months of the bloody civil war. In march-april protesters in the south regions were lightly armed (like the ones in maidan) had reasonable requests (federalization and language law) and had local support (antimaidan groups). The only difference is - when maidan stormed buildings they got into power, when protesters did it - they got Odessa and Mariupol's massacres. Not very fair, isn't it?

Not really. Terrorists by definition are people who use terror (a.e. inflicting fear) to achieve their goals. Using army to fight for this goals is not terrorism (unless terror is the main method of fighting). And should I remind you that many (if not most) current countries were created by dividing other whole territories?
