How about you prove that the images showing Russian vehicles passing into Ukraine were a fucking video game....

He can't, there's the kicker!

I love how the state media is covering that shit with all sorts of disorganized excuses, like after the rebels blew the jet from the sky. Oops they got us.

[Megraam]

Totally irrelevant. Youtube and twitter are not valid sources for anything if the story is not confirmed by government officials of the highest level.

Backing off already? I see

A Russian opposition site posted an article saying that a Pskov newspaper has published an interview with paratroopers from 76th Pskov division, and the paratroopers say their 1st company was almost annihilated on Ukrainian territory during August 20-25th battles, at least 70 dead, maybe even up to 140. Family members are being harassed to keep quiet, during phone calls unknown people impersonate the Pskovite soldiers.

After the publication, the editor of the newspaper was assaulted; concussion of the brain, broken nose, multiple bruises. All is well in mother Russia.

They should put them in jail.

From non-Russian point of view you're obviously right. But for Russian imperialism Ukraine is crucial. We were the jewel of Russian crown, like India for the British. Without Ukraine, Russia is doomed to forever be second-rate power at best.

USA owes many times more money to China, should China have a veto over USA actions now?

Oh, and to those wondering why Russia has to buy French ships, Ukraine has the USSR shipyard now in Mykolayiv city, another reason for "concerned citizens" to appear on our soil.

Sue your teachers.

So, is anyone able to open a source which is mentioned in this article? I mean the newspaper itself which is claimed to post something doesn't work at all (at least for me).

Demanding some level of standards from evidence is backing off?

Probably not. I will try to adjust to your standards.

Please youtube "18+ Разбитый батальон "Айдар" под Новосветловкой" (caution is has very raw images) skip to 4:20 watch them find USD 100$ bills on the dead.
Multiple videos around which display american currency on dead mercenaries. Not saying that they are American, i am just saying that Kiev and it's friends are paying mercenaries in USD. gg

Someone found foreign currency on a dead body that anyone could have since American currency tends to be the one currency everyone will accept in the world?! Holy shit. That totally makes them paid fighters! I better tell my brother to dump the Iraq/Afghan money in his wallet that he shows off to interested folks because that means he totally fights for Al Qaeda!

What fucking nonsense.

Apparently Obama is going to visit Estonia to reassure Baltic allies that US and NATO will protect them under NATO's article 5.

And this might ruffle russians feathers a bit. Estonia wants permanent NATO base in Estonia:

Aka: foreign non European agitators visit European countries to make sure the current crisis is not dealt swiftly.

Unless you're a paranoid nationalist tool you'd know that already.

TBF, im just reporting news relating to this thread.

While I believe putin isn't mentally unstable enough to attack a NATO country; With his recent talks of defending russian interests with nukes and other insane quotes...even im starting to doubt how far his small man syndrome will take him.

You shouldn't worry about putin.
There is way way worst than him out there. Our closest allies the USA for example, are directly responsible for the destruction and despair in nearly half of Asia.

Rank-and-file troops increasingly have voiced exasperation at what they say is government mismanagement of the war. Anatoly Babchenko, a soldier captured Sunday by the rebels, was unsparing in his criticism.

"First they drove people to hunger, and now they've driven them to war," Babchenko said from a basement cell at the Starobesheve police station. "They call this an anti-terrorist operation, but this is a civil war. Brother killing brother."

The separatists began fighting Ukrainian troops in April, a month after Russia annexed Crimea. The war has left more than 2,500 people dead and forced at least 340,000 to flee.

It also has left Ukraine's economy in tatters. Ukraine might need billions in additional support if the fighting persists through next year, the International Monetary Fund said Tuesday. Just covering the shortfall in the central bank's reserves would require an additional $19 billion by the end of 2015, it said.

Instead of ending the pointless war Britain and NATO will hold military training in Western Ukraine.

Which countries are you referring to? Iraq I get. Afghanistan was already in pretty bad shape before we got there, thanks in large part to the Russian invasion. Iran is having a bad time due to sanctions, but that's hardly just a US thing, and they could end that the minute they stopped trying to become a nuclear state. I guess with some twisted logic you could attempt to blame North Korea's suffering on the US.

Meanwhile, India, China, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, and the Philippines are all doing fine. There are some other countries that are struggling to catch up, but that's hardly the US's fault.

I have no idea what you are talking about. I'm simply stating that until an high ranking governmental body acknowledges the presence of active duty personnel operating in Ukraine, we should not be hasty in jumping to conclusions. Also I must stress that pictures or interviews are not valid as evidence, as such records are easily tampered with.

You were using pro-Russian maskirovka tactics, that was my point. The level of denial you used was somewhere in the middle on the scale of 1 to Putin.

Laughing out loud.

Your forgot to mention Syria that is ravaged by US backed Islamists and Pakistan that is ran by the military that has ties with the Taliban. Half of Asia is a mess thanks to US meddling. Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Bahrain on the other hand violate human rights and sponsor terrorism with the USA's blessing.

His point is valid.
