I am sure the OP is a cultured person, and as such, he can understand that other people may also have a valid opinion. I am definatly not saying that calling the interim government "neo-facist" is correct, but as a perfectly accepting person, I understand that people may have their own opinions and draw their own conclusions. Such is the building block of democracy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9138994904411225576.post-84209476523560094612014-08-12T16:54:57.013-07:002014-08-12T16:54:57.013-07:00@Igor Strelnikoff Neither the US or Putin has cred...@Igor Strelnikoff Neither the US or Putin has credibility on their side; in particular Putin is decreasing his credibility rapidly.<br /><br />There is virtually no doubt that the missile which blow MH17 out of the sky was either controlled by the Russian military directly or by their proxies in Ukraine.<br /><br />The only party I can think has even the slightest credibility left in this conflict is Ukraine.<br /><br />The only solution I can see is not a political boycut; which does somewhere near 0 damage to Putin (I believe it would actually strengthen him), but a full economical boycut coupled with military readiness to engage Russia. The very first thing Europe must do (EU most likely) is to put troops in eastern Ukraine. This is not something I say lightly -- Putin has shown more than once that he is out to grab land from other countries and Russia has on more than one occasion stolen vital infrastructure from other countries using "debt" as an excuse (Ukraine has in particular, been a victim of this tactics).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9138994904411225576.post-40527772509856219402014-08-09T01:20:25.108-07:002014-08-09T01:20:25.108-07:00Next try to build a good link:

We should bear in mind that we are asked to believe that all of this 'evidence' came from an area that is held by the separatists? No - sorry they will have to do better than that. I feel sure Moscow is examining evidence as we speak, while Western propaganda is showing its ugly face.

When US said there are 100K Russians on Ukraine's border, no photos were available. When Russians did military games, hundreds of photos were presented. Since then, again no photos because all that is on the border are refugee camps. It was reported that the rebels acquired a BUK system from the national guard, that is how they got the system. In a russophobic western world it will always say Russia did it...

Peter Jennings described how the stupid USA citizens consume the tidal wave of propaganda coming from all the neocon news sources.

It is the USA that will crash and we will see, if they can endure hardship as Russia did in 1992.
