July 25, News on situation in Ukraine
Elena Filatova ^ | July 25, 2014 | Elena Filatova

Posted on 07/25/2014 7:46:34 AM PDT by No One Special

Here is recent map, sorry I didn't find one in English. In yellow and blue is Ukrainian territory, Russia is brown and separatists controlled territory is in between. There is two or three pockets where Ukrainian army having hard time, it is near Russian border. They are between separatists and Russians who fire from Russian territory. Pentagon admitted today that Russia is firing artillery from its own territory into Ukraine to hit Ukrainian military sites. They doing it for second week.

To understand what future may hold for us let me remind how it went with Osetia in 2008. Russia was supplying Osetian separatists with tanks and heavy weapons. They fired at Georgian cities quite for a while and eventually Georgians couldn't stand it longer and moved on Osetians and Russian troops have been there waiting, so they counter attacked and found themselves deep into Georgian territory.

We can see that Russians want to play the same scenario, but so far it doesn't work. Why? First because Ukrainians not so impulsive and hot blooded as Georgians. Ukrainians reserved and even tempered people. Everyone understand if we attack Russians on their territory then Putin will send so called peacekeepers. Of course if nothing else works Russians can attack their cities themselves and tell Ukrainians did it. Either way in Ukraine we have third wave of mobilization. Another 50.000 reservists will join army. Everyone understand it is not to fight separatists, it is to hold wide-front offensive of Russian army.

I want to say a couple of words to people who have financial interests in Russia or who somehow connected with Russia ecnonomically. Get out of this market, it has no future. Just grab whatever you can get out of this mess and invest somewhere else. Things in Russia will never get back on track. This empire is finished. Future trend is that things bad today and they will be worse tomorrow until worse of all...

What is your point in posting a lie, or perhaps you were just mistaken?

I expect the young lady in New Mexico has been mistaken for “my” Elena before, but even so, it is completely wreckless to knowingly do as you did as the internet can be a very dangerous place for young women. You never know what psychos are lurking. I suggest you call abuse on yourself and have the mods delete your mistake.

Kolomoisky's Killers of Battalion "Dnepr" showing off with one of their victims, suspected of helping the rebels, somewhere east of Mariupol. AND THE MORONS POSTED IT ON TWITTER TODAY Reminds me of the WW2 "Eisatzgruppen" pics.

OK. My bad. Wrong Elena Filatova.

The right one is Ukrainian born Elena Vladimirovna Filatova.

So. What was your point in posting a hoaxer's article?

That Filatova is quite pretty, but is not the Filatova you are looking for. In addition to the source page, this, from about ten years ago kiddofspeed is the gal you are looking for.

Check out the serpents wall.

Here she is with one of the finds that she and here friends dug up. The info at the page says it is a machine gun from an airplane.

Interestingly, I tried to copy only the last photo's location, but they must come as a package.

The middle photo I believe is a door to one of the old Soviet bunkers they also explored.

The author was at Maidan and she has a history of it here.

Her concluding thought from the above journal caught my attention:

"Below photos of some people who died on Maydan. (Policemen at the bottom) Russian propaganda says they all extremists. The truth is they are best people of their time in this country. We stood with them against tyranny day and night for 3 month. I am very proud of standing shoulder to shoulder with them against evil of this world. It was the best time and it was the best team, ever."

Thanks for the Russia Propaganda Today link. I found this there also. Censorship or error? Internet criticism for BBC removal of MH17 report.

What’s that post still doing there? Having trouble calling abuse on yourself?

No, moron. I asked the moderator once. That’s all.

I see that it is now gone. Good boy or girl, WTCMB. But that leaves the explanation for your behavior which has been less than complete. I suppose it was just an honest mistake? Or maybe you should just leave the thread and I’ll chalk it up for you as a bad day and I will know that tomorrow will be a better one.

The author was at Maidan

Are you sure about that? Or is Kid of Speed just taking you for a fast ride?

The link reads like a polemic illustrated with photos pulled off the internet, such as this one, taken by Igor Butenko:

I had to chuckle when I see the looks on the faces of the police there. I don’t think he would get his Miranda rights read to him.

I just saw Wesley Clark on CNN being interviewed about Ukraine. The same guy who wanted the Brits to attack the Russians in Bosnia. Good thing they told him to go fly a kite.

Wesley Clarks one of Obamas men....and his own history isn't exactly pristine as he makes it out to be. But that's another story. It's interesting listening to people interview about Ukraine...and very easy to tell those who have the cold ward mentality as they do...Wesley is one of them of course. He couldn't be anything other than.

....”If they are upping the quality and numbers of equipment now, IMO we are entering an “End” phase”....

Yes, that’s how I’m seeing it currently. Just wondering who might throw a stick into the fire to prevent “the beginning of the end game”.......there are still too many ‘loose militia’s’ stirring the pot with their own agenda’s. Which is why it might get more heated for a time.

BTW it’s interesting reading the specifics of what’s happening on the ground as you report here on FR.....generally confirms what I’m seeing or steps ahead of my catching up... Appreciate it very much....
