Ukraine
« on: February 16, 2015, 02:12:25 pm »
The last thread on Ukraine just died down, but I feel like I need to rant about it somewhere. Russian troops and tanks (There are plenty of photos of brand new T-72 models that have not been sold outside of Russia being used in Ukraine) are involved, they broke the ceasefire before the ink had even dried on the Kiev2 papers and then we have things like this:



Images of Ukrainian soldiers who were bound and then murdered at the Donetsk airport. They don't even bother to hide the evidence of their war crimes...
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!

*Puts hand to head*

Ugh, the Ukraine. We're too afraid of Old Man Winter to actually put men on the ground and drive them out, so we leave it to the people of the Ukraine to do what the EU/United States should be doing with them

Meanwhile, Russia just gallivants around the place like Croatia wishes it could and kills everyone it can reach like it's going out of style.  The UGF can't keep up with their Soviet era stuff (which is running out of replacement parts), simple as that. So, Russia basically has free reign nowadays with the Ukraine.

Disgusting, just disgusting.

Those sanctions can't bite soon enough.

Germany doesn't want the sanctions because it would hit their own economy. Greece was against the sanctions because when the original draft was written no one asked for their opinion and they just claimed that Greece is also strongly against Russia. (And apart from being treated like a pawn they also have more important things to worry about in their own country so they'd rather ignore the situation.)

Finland is probably the one country that does most business with Russia so we've been hurt by the sanctions (Though there were protest in Russia because certain types of foods that doctors recommend are only brought to Russia from Finland and this was a health risk.) but since we also share a border with them I think we have a huge reason to support the sanctions.

Russia is clearly violating all kinds of treaties but EU will throw Ukraine to the dogs as long as they can guarantee "peace in our time." Germany already said that Kiev2 was Russia's last chance so unless they actually do something Russia has called their bluff...

I seem to remember reports of the Buzzer/UVB 76 going silent before the annexation of Crimea, and then switching call signs. Creepy fucking shit, man.

Also, various T-64 variants. No T-64 has ever seen battle until now.

Officially, anyway. I personally believe a couple saw action in Moldova, with a few being tested out in Afghanistan. Of course, we always confuse the T-64 for the T-72, so take this with a grain of salt.

I think T-64s were used in Georgian war by Russia... I'm gonna check it up later but at least I am certain that they dragged out some old model of tanks and used them because they had so much ammo left for the tanks and didn't really need the latest model when just firing at defenseless units from afar.

According to Russian news Ukrainian soldiers raped and murdered a nurse in east Ukraine.

...Except that the picture of the nurse they used appeared to be taken from a porn film. And now the actress herself, Sasha Grey, has come out and explained that she is in fact still alive.

And hasn't been raped by Ukrainian soldiers.

...Still no word on whether or not she has had consensual sex with a platoon of Ukrainian soldiers. (Fund it! Use this publicity and make a film on the subject!)

Bonus points from the fact that the "news" was originally from the Russian equivalent of 4chan:

Considering that Sasha Grey is very much alive, your first instinct should be “this is a troll.” And you’re right! The post came out of an image board known as Dvach — basically, Eastern Europe’s version of 4Chan — and was a test to see whether pro-separatist Russians were gullible enough to share social media stories confirming their beliefs about the moral depravity of Ukrainians, even if they displayed photos of famous porn stars, Ukrainian nationalists, or even notorious Nazi doctors. (According to Global Voices, they left hints of her actual identity: “Serova” is Russian for “grey,” and the post itself contained “several sexually suggestive double entendres.”)

They were trolling the Russian net just to see if they pick ANY negative story against the Ukrainian goverment. They did. And not just the social media users, even the news picked up the troll story.

And they used a famous porn star so that it would be easier for the people to realize that they are being fooled (and easier for the others to see that the news are a hack when the story did get picked up. )

Also, NATO is setting up a new military unit in East Europe as a counter to Russia.
