This recent event started when the protestors killed a bunch of retreating cops with bullets, firebombs, and other lethal means. And then took 50 of them hostage.
In 1 years time it will turn out that everything you have been told was a lie. Just like in the last 5-6 wars.
Story about opposition taking hostage dozens of police is all over the news (Russian news at least, I am not sure if it is reaching the English-speaking media yet).
These pictures are either of the Ukrainian police, not protesters, or show no indication of actually being in Ukraine. Also, Russian news is full of propaganda trying to show the protesters as the ones causing the violence. Anything from independent sources, such as Reuters or AP?
The same Berkut that captured, beated, took clothes and forced a man to dance naked in the snow, all while laughing and making fun of him. And left him bloody in the snow afterwards? In some other country that same Berkut would be prosecuted. I don't say I support violence without trial against them, but I can perfectly understand why would someone do it.
