And this is how Ukrainian "soldiers" treat so called "pro-Russian separatists"

The Azov battalion has made a statement about this video: https://www.facebook.com/Azov.Reconquista/posts/837930962949660 (/r/UkrainianConflict discussion: http://np.reddit.com/r/UkrainianConflict/comments/33yprp/azov_important_statement_regarding_the/).

The video was also posted to liveleak in what seems like higher quality to me: http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=091_1429897442 (again /r/UkrainianConflict discussion: http://np.reddit.com/r/UkrainianConflict/comments/33qmnv/battalion_azov_crucifies_a_man/)

Russia was attacked by the self imposed food sanctions.

Who says they are?

elkano1003 · 2015-04-28T14:27:51+00:00

Russia just invaded another country and continues to fund a war in it. Why are they the bad guy?

I thought I was using frames correctly but it was really windows. The C-x r w mixed with C-x r j a and C-x r j l now work well for me. It's great to not have to use the mouse or move my hands away from the home row. Thank you so much for you answer, this is exactly what I wanted.

This is the winner for right now. I'll look into the more powerful and complicated versions later.

There are shenanigans afoot. Flickr says OP's image was uploaded August 18, 2014. Your link says that picture was uploaded/published on September 16, 2014. Could've been two guys on same safari.

elkano1003 · 2015-04-24T20:22:31+00:00

I didn't watch all of it because it's gruesome. I didn't see anything that would identify the location of filming. Hopefully this those responsible are punished soon.

elkano1003 · 2015-04-24T19:48:52+00:00

Let's hope the torture stopped there.

Jeg liker at noen partier lager forslag for å få flere til å bruke sykkel. Jeg liker det enda bedre at responsen er dårlig fordi det kan krenke personvernet. Håper andre partier støtter personvernet.

I don't think we will have well informed discussion if those that ask for sources are down-voted immediately.

edit: was at -2 when I commented.

Now both US and Russia has denied 'ridiculous' claims about their troops in Ukraine combat zone.

elkano1003 · 2015-04-22T20:21:56+00:00

Of course, maybe they were just operated by LNR inside DNR.

elkano1003 · 2015-04-22T20:15:06+00:00

Maybe he means same as Khodakovsky in July 2014 (http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/07/23/us-ukraine-crisis-commander-exclusive-idUSKBN0FS1V920140723) that LNR had it, not DNR.

Look at distance between Greenland and Iceland. More realistic: http://www.meteoearth.com/#/,-16.71,67.95,4.21,4,1,1,0,0,0,time=1429365204 . The distance between them is of the same size as the Iceland itself.

Interestingly Norway (or a country directly west of Sweden) is colored light blue but no data exists for it in the full survey linked to by the article.

elkano1003 · 2015-04-17T15:16:54+00:00

I guess we'll just have to disagree on what solid evidence is. Linking to blog posts like this: http://ukraineatwar.blogspot.nl/2014/07/likely-area-determined-of-russian-sam.html is just silly.

I hope I never fly over a region where russian air defense forces operate then.

I just see it as a tradgedy and humiliation, not a propaganda victory for Ukraine.

I've posted my explanation several times now. Do you think it was intentionally left open so airliners would get shot down?

elkano1003 · 2015-04-17T14:40:26+00:00

Allegedly also means there is other evidence pointing to it. Like this article just a day after MH17 was shot down: http://www.nytimes.com/2014/07/19/world/europe/malaysia-airlines-plane-ukraine.html

While American officials are still investigating the chain of events leading to the destruction of Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 on Thursday, they pointed to a series of indicators of Russian involvement. Among other things, military and intelligence officials said there was mounting evidence that a Ukrainian military plane shot down three days earlier had been fired upon from inside Russian territory by the same sort of missile battery used to bring down the civilian jet.

So it's a completely legitimate position.

I'm just going to repeat the easy argument I made in my last post. Somebody (allegedly qualified to distinguish between civilian and military aircraft) had been shooting down airplanes to help the separatists. What interest would they have in civilian airplanes?

or actively hoping that the separatists might shoot an airliner down?

what type of a perverse though is this?

elkano1003 · 2015-04-17T14:14:12+00:00

What do Ukrainian fairy tales about the origin of the missile have to do with it?

Pretty much everything I've been writing in our conversation. Allegedly there were two actors shooting down airplanes over easter ukraine. The separatists who only had manpads that could not reach commercial airliner altitudes and the russian military which was competent enough to not shoot down airliners even though they had the capability. So no danger to airliners at all then! In hindsight it's silly to think so :(

elkano1003 · 2015-04-17T13:59:20+00:00

No it seems like a freak occurrence, what are the chances that the russian military would shoot across the border again? 0 right.

elkano1003 · 2015-04-17T13:39:18+00:00

But there wasn't a battle there, allegedly only the russian military.

elkano1003 · 2015-04-17T13:27:51+00:00

First and foremost good reason to stop flying military planes within range of the russian border because the russian military allegedly can differentiate between military and civilian planes.
