Combatants are combatants, regardless of arms

and of course the Russians took their weapons and then sent them back unarmed and defenseless right into a rebel ambush.

Isn't that what happened???

It's not a surprise since these are the same lowlifes who shoot innocent people out of the sky and then loot them.

These Russian thugs are lowlifes -- as are those who defend them.

If they were unarmed, why would anyone need to read anything you provide?

As usual, you muddy the waters by your own comments.

Truth?

You have proven you are not interested in that.

Get the hell off the pages of FreeRepublic.

You link actually defeats your own argument, one is doesn’t refer to civil unrest, two it was a term one country came up with, three is was also abandoned by said country under new leadership in 2009.

Shooting on unarmed people regardless of status is a war crime.
