Do you think Yanukovych’s days are numbered? Or is he just going to muddle through his term as a lame duck?

Here's a statement she made yesterday and posted on her website.

http://www.tymoshenko.ua/en/article/yulia_tymoshenko_20_02_2014_01

"Yanukovych crossed the line long ago. But the fact that today he gave the order for snipers to fire against peaceful, unarmed and defenseless civilians borders on the most extreme sadistic brutally that no human being could commit.

One can’t watch without crying as simple and honest boys and men, who rose in defense of Ukraine, hide from snipers’ bullets behind wooden shields. These wooden shields can’t protect them. They are dying from snipers’ bullets in front of the eyes of the world. They are being killed by a man who considers himself the president. He is killing them on Independence Square, in the center of a European capital, cold-bloodedly and calmly.

This can not be forgiven.

I demand that the opposition never again sit down to the negotiating table with Yanukovych. Anyone who breaks this taboo will be Yanukovych’s accomplice in killing innocent people.

From this moment, the demand of the people, civil society, opposition, international community and every moral person can only be the immediate removal of Yanukovych as president of Ukraine and his criminal prosecution for organizing the massacre of peaceful citizens.

I ask the leaders of the democratic world to urgently find a way to take the case against Yanukovych to the International Criminal Court and urgently isolate him from peaceful people, like the dangerous beast he is!

Glory to all those who died for Ukraine!

Glory to all the defenders of Ukraine!

Glory to Ukraine!

Don’t take one step back. The dictator will fall any day now.

Yulia Tymoshenko
Kachanivska prison, Kharkiv
February 20, 2014"

This is looking like the shoe is about to be on the other foot and Western Ukraine will be mollified, but the Eastern and Southern regions will now become the sources of greater unrest.

Ukraine can do this, but this country is too busy talking about who is going to be on Fallon tonight.

Hmmm... Same thing happened to Tom Delay. And Denish Dsouza. And Scooter Libby. And ...

I expect to see Ted Cruz charged shortly.

>>The bill that parliament passed included other articles of the criminal procedural code that were decriminalized.<<

So they have finally legalized arson? As one Dutch cop said when they were witnessing overall decline in crime stats since legalizing prostitution and dope: ‘If only they could legalize burglary either so we won’t have any crime at all!’

I wonder if she’ll leave for Germany to get the emergency medical treatment she claims was urgently needed, or whether she’ll experience a miraculous recovery and stick around.
