e asked you. You are the one who studied unipolar theory (you know what a theory is, I presume) and who claims to speak with authority on issue in Ukraine.

In other words, you also don't know who shot it down. And you have no proof of anything.

Thanks.

Those who do not hide dishonestly behind anti-American/anti-Western academic theories are sufficiently sure of who shot it down not to have to equivocate.

Unipolar theory is "anti-Western"?



Here is a primer, you absolute numbskull.

Your outlook, as displayed in this thread and justified by reference to unipolar theory, is anti-American and anti-Western.

I love the way you continually resort to insults. You don't like being accused of intellectual dishonesty, because you know it is justified.

This from a Ukrainian yesterday.

Russia are planning a bridge between Russia & Crimea.

Chinese engineers have stated previously this is impossible.

Pressure now on Russia to do something what with the power down from Ukraine and Crimea experiencing a blackout.

Ukrainian nationalists giving the electricity engineers somewhat of a hard time and Crimean's wondering was it such a good idea to passively accept a Russian takeover.

'Russians' here in Cyprus have said they are looking to leave Russia for good and many have already got their money out.

Several Russian gas customers (including Ukraine) looking to switch suppliers in the next 12-18 months.

Interesting time for the Russian president.

This is the stand-out for me.

Russian's are a fiercely patriotic bunch, so things must be getting really bad back home.

'Consequences' threatened by Moscow if the power for Crimea doesn't go back on soon; rather vague on what the consequences might be though. Gas embargo probably, I can't see them cranking up the tanks at this time of year, Corporal Winter favours even poorly armed defenders.

This from back in Jan: http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/ukraine-switches-european...

Family members who live in Krivoy Rog, Ukraine said this has been ramped up now and they expect to be switching around Jan of next year.

We shall see.

On December 7, a record number of shelling from positions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces was recorded. According to the DPR military department, the intensity of shelling attacks grew twice in that day. The Ukrainian side opened fire on the territory of the republic 2,453 times. Only artillery fired not less than 114 shots with 152mm and 122mm projectiles. More than 600 mortar’s rounds were fired, and more than 1,000 shots were made from grenade guns.

Active clashes took place at all key sectors of the front: in the villages of Aleksandrovka, Trudovskoy, Staromykhailivka, Vasilevka, Spartak and Zhabichevo, as well as on the outskirts of Donetsk. Yasnoye village near Dokuchaevsk, the villages of Leninskoye, Kominternovo and Oktyabr in Novoazovskiy district of the republic also came under fire of the Ukrainian Army.

that's a lot..
i wonder if people are increasing the pressure in "other areas of tension"

[Charlie1986]

Its amazing how this gets very little coverage here except when football teams can't play at a stadium because of the violence otherwise theres nothing.

I do wonder how many have died?
