Decapitated Birds Found On Streets In Vegas Neighborhood
Do you americans have any limits to your depravity?
========================================= Decapitated Birds Found On Streets In Vegas Neighborhood May 9, 2014 LAS VEGAS (CBS Las Vegas) - Residents in the valley’s east side are disgusted by what they’ve been finding in the streets. Piles of beheaded birds are being dumped in seemingly random locations throughout the area, reports KLAS-TV. Helen Arciaga, a Charleston Boulevard thrift shop owner has found several dead birds in an alley behind her store. “Oh, where did this come from?” she asks. “Oh my good Lord it stinks.” Street cleaner Ryan Roskins tells KLAS-TV he’s been seeing many of the birds as he makes his rounds. “The first time I saw it, it was a large rooster,” he said. “Everything else is there, feet, feathers. It’s just decapitated.” He has a theory for the increase in the gruesome finds. “I actually think it must be voodoo,” said Roskins. A West African priest tells the station that may not be the case. He says people practicing the religion of Santeria or Ifa use animal sacrifices like chickens, pigeons or goats as a means of protection or as a way to cleanse the body. “They might be wiping themselves with the bird, letting the blood and then having to discard the body,” Ifa priest Duane Reece said. He says where the bird’s body is dumped depends on what the spirit or deity is calling out for. “Just like a first communion, just like a baptism, all of these ways are ways humans use to communicate.” But for business owners like Arciaga, the rituals can’t stop soon enough. “I’m sorry for what we saw today.” http://lasvegas.cbslocal.com/2014/05...-neighborhood/ |

79 year-old Man Beaten After Accidentally Bumping Into Car (Hyundai) InLas Vegas Grocery Store Parking Lot

Do you americans have any limits to your depravity? Why do I even ask? Of course there are no limits. At least not in Las Vegas. "To have your father knocked out by someone else a lot younger than him, I think he’s pretty humiliated" Jesus christ. Is it always about pride you you americans? Especially when you prove over and over again that you have none? Your father gets nearly killed by a punk for touching his ****ing Hyundai, and instead of cursing the punk up and down as a god-damn coward sociopathic miscreant, your main concern is your father's pride? What a screwed up bunch of people you are. ========================================= May 8, 2014 APPLE VALLEY (CBSLA.com) — A 79-year-old man was attacked when he accidentally bumped into a car in a grocery store parking lot in Apple Valley. The incident happened Sunday at a Stater Bros. on Bear Valley Road. According to sheriff’s officials, Alfred McOsker was unloading his groceries into his car when his leg touched a newer Hyundai parked next to him. The car’s owner accused McOsker of scratching his vehicle and then punched the older man repeatedly in the face. The victim’s daughter, Alison Rennie, said the suspect caused her father to fall and hit his head. “His face is pretty scratched up and his pride is pretty marred, as well. He ended up with two black eyes and he lost a tooth,” she said. Store employee Cris Zulueta was the person who called 911. “He had blood coming out of both nostrils and it was covered down his face, dripping on the floor everywhere,” he said. “It was unbelievable that somebody would hit a 79-year-old man. Where is the respect in the world for people like that?” The suspect, who left before deputies got to the scene, was described as in his 20s, 6 feet tall and 200 pounds. “To have your father knocked out by someone else a lot younger than him, I think he’s pretty humiliated,” said Rennie, adding that McOsker is sleeping all day and swaying in and out of consciousness. http://losangeles.cbslocal.com/2014/...e-parking-lot/ |

It's art.
Some artist is chopping the heads off birds and leaving the carcasses in the streets, avenues and back lanes of Las Vegas. It's a commentary on the struggle of modern man against his feminine side. It may seem repulsive to the general public, but that's only because the public's perception of "art" needs to evolve and mature. I much prefer Physics graduate students dressed as giant penguins cutting the heads off of stuffed animals while newsreals of the Holocause play on movie screens in the background. It speaks so much clearer to me. Last edited by nestork : May 11th 14 at 05:33 PM |

You constantly focus on that, without having a good explanation as to why you don't post here with your true, full name, or explain why you apparently have no problems with the vast majority of others here who also post anonymously. chuckle Yes, I too chuckle over your weak mentality. |

Can't you understand why the Americans in here get fed up with you when you're continuously criticizing their country at every available opportunity? You make it sound like crazy and sick stuff doesn't happen in Canada, but it does, only less frequently because of the difference in national populations. |

HomeGuy:
Why not try this: Why not answer the household DIY questions in here to the best of your ability if you feel you have something to contribute. And, at the same time, avoid needless and pointless criticism of the United States and everything American. And, see if over the course of a month or two, the animosity between you and the Americans in here doesn't fade away. I think that's worth a try. |

I'm glad Canada has prisons and metal institutions. Home Guy might come to America. We used to have dungeons to deal with the likes of him. Now we put them in the back-behind-down-yonder. Feed 'em swill and if lucky they get a pea and a carrot. When bored we turn them around to face the wall - hanging from the chains. |

It would be nice if they got their act together and stopped dragging the world economy into the toilet. I for one would be richer for it - but so too would they. I think that's worth a try. It's awfully hard when Drudge and ZeroHedge posts a dozen stories a week showing how broken and dysfunctional the US has become. It's like they're not even trying. |

Similarily, just about a month ago when John Baird got up in our house of Commons and opened his big mouth to say that Canada wouldn't accept a referendum in Crimea because the place was crawling with Russian troops and so every Crimean would be voting to join Russia for fear of being shot. I was posting in here at the time and I was concerned that the people who hear that on the TV would actually believe it. So, I posted in here and told everyone that was a blatant lie by the Canadian government because anyone that knew anything about Ukraine would know that most people in Crimea would vote to join Russia because the WANTED to, not because they felt intimidated into doing so. That was blatent Canadian government propoganda, and I identified it as such for the benefit of both the Canadians and Americans in here. No one in here is stupid. We can all tell a LEGITIMATE criticism (like those that I outlined above) from an attack on America just because some American somewhere does something stupid, which but for the grace of God and the laws of probability, might have equally well happened in Canada.

The truth is that a rising tide raises all ships. If the American economy improves then more Americans buy things, and as often as not, those things are made in Canada, such as parts for cars being assembled in Detroit, so we benefit. Similarily, if China's economy does well, then Chinese citizens buy more stuff, and as often as not the stuff they buy is a new American car. I have some money in the TD Global Growth fund, which invests in ventures all over the world, and that fund is doing quite well because the world economy is improving. The US economy is also improving (you just have to look at the US stock market indices) as is the Canadian and European economies. I have no idea who Drudge and ZeroHedge are, but just because they're doing something annoying you don't have to do the same. Last edited by nestork : May 13th 14 at 01:29 AM |

Since when is the USA dragging the world economy into the toilet? Where have you been since 2008? Do you know what Lehman Brothers is (was)? It should be the Americans complaining that China is dragging the US economy into the toilet by offering cheap labour for manufacturing to American companies like Apple and others. So you really don't understand how trade, debt and capital flows work. China needs to keep a billion people employed. The US needs to export it's outrageous debt. It's a symbiotic relationship that can't work forever, and it will end badly. The US economy is also improving (you just have to look at the US stock market indices) as is the Canadian and European economies. US equities are unhinged from reality - thanks to Ben Bernanke and a little something called "QE" - probably something you've never heard of or even understand. And it took a Canadian trader working at RBC in New York to figure out that HFT existed and how it worked and how it was undermining the most pivotal aspects of market trading in the USA. It's awfully hard when Drudge and ZeroHedge posts a dozen stories a week showing how broken and dysfunctional the US has become. It's like they're not even trying. I have no idea who Drudge and ZeroHedge are, ... You clearly don't get out much. |

Be reasonable, Homeguy, none of the Americans in here had any more to do with that than you or I did. It was the US banks offering teaser mortgages to anyone competent enough to sign on a dotted line. They'd give people a 0 percent mortgage rate for three years, after which the mortgage rate shot up to 6 or 7 percent. So, people thought they'd buy the house and just sit on it while it rose in value over those 3 years time, and then just sell it for a fat profit. The problem was that other people thought the same thing and the prices of those houses fell instead, and people ended up owing more on a house than it was worth. Yes, the sale of those worthless mortgages to other banks around the world shook up the global economy, but the bottom line is that the Americans that were responsible for that mortgage fiasco ARE NOT the ones in here trying to save money by do home repairs themselves. You need to be addressing your criticisms to the people at the top of those banks that knew what was happening but didn't do anything to stop it. They all live in multimillion dollar homes, so they wouldn't be spending much of their time in here. |

The way the DMCA is written, you are in violation when you make copywrited works available to others - as you do when you participate in a torrent. When you download from a file-locker or usenet, you are still obtaining the work in question, but you're not facilitating others to obtain it. Just ask ChairWoman - because he also downloads copywrited works from usenet. Why else would he be paying for usenet access if all he does is read and post to text groups? It has been fun to slap him. It gives your infantile mind so much pleasure when you think you've "slapped" me eh? That's nice. Give your self a pat on head for being so clever.

So don't tell me that anything beyond zero is "too much" or needless. Maybe it is pointless - maybe they've become dumber than a sack of hammers. No, HomeGuy, I've been critical of the US (and Canadian) media when I felt it was warranted. A few years back when the US media was telling Americans that drugs imported from Canada weren't safe, I squaked long and loud about that. Those drugs were all being made in Canada, it's just that the drugs meant for the US market had a special sticker on the packaging and a higher price tag. I told people about that on the forum I was in at the time, and in the end the truth came out when some US Senator decided to do his own investigating. He found that all of that particular kind of drug was made by the same people in the same factory in Canada, even the ones destined for sale in the USA, and the ONLY difference was that the drugs meant for sale in the USA had a special sticker on the packaging and a much higher price. Similarily, just about a month ago when John Baird got up in our house of Commons and opened his big mouth to say that Canada wouldn't accept a referendum in Crimea because the place was crawling with Russian troops and so every Crimean would be voting to join Russia for fear of being shot. I was posting in here at the time and I was concerned that the people who hear that on the TV would actually believe it.

That was blatent Canadian government propoganda, and I identified it as such for the benefit of both the Canadians and Americans in here. So, to hell with free and fair elections. It's perfectly OK to have elections where all the opposition leaders have been arrested in the middle of the night, locked up in jail, beaten up, where mysterious Russian troops in uniforms with no identification march through hotels for no reason and patrol at voting locations. All that is OK, because according to you, we know the outcome. I guess the elections in North Korea are cool too, because we know the outcome. And the Crimea referendum was totally illegal and illigitmate regardless of the outcome. It's as legal as Michigan holding a referendum on leaving the USA and joining Canada. It violates the US Constitution and it's totally bogus. No one in here is stupid. We can all tell a LEGITIMATE criticism (like those that I outlined above) from an attack on America just because some American somewhere does something stupid, which but for the grace of God and the laws of probability, might have equally well happened in Canada. I'd say that one out of two of your examples is just as nutty and in fact similar to the nonsense that HomeLessGuy posts. That's the best example you could come up with? How about simply citing the crack pipe smoking, drunk fool Mayor Rob Ford? And none of it matters anyway, because HomeLessGuy is obviously a nut case, with serious penis envy over the USA. It's a curious thing, how focused on the alleged defects and evil of the USA some idiots are, while ignoring the true evil and threats to world peace. And BTW, that true evil and threat includes Putin, who you make excuses for.. |

What you're referring to as "mysterious Russian troops marching through hotels and patrolling voting locations" actually were there to protect the Crimeans from Anti-Russian Ukrainians. Ukraine is a country divided and there is a lot of bad blood and hatred over there. Moving Russian troops into Crimea to protect Pro-Russian Crimeans/Ukrainians was a reasonable move by Putin. If he didn't do anything to protect the Pro-Russian people in Crimea/Ukraine from Anti-Russian Ukrainians it would have raised MORE EYEBROWS and very well could have resulted in bloodshed in the streets in Crimea. It's just that people over here in Canada (and the USA) don't know the history of Ukraine, and because there's no civil war there yet, they presume everyone in Ukraine is happy with the status quo, and that's not the case. My point was that Crimeans would have voted to become part of Russia regardless of whether there were Russian troops in Crimea or not. John Baird (and your US government) were making it sound that they could legitimately ignore the results of the Crimean referendum because those people were voting under duress, and that was blatant propoganda. Neither the Canadian nor the American governments could think of a GOOD reason to ignore the Crimean referendum, and so they came out with that BS about the Russians intimidating the Crimeans, and for the most part, the public bought it. (Or, it seems that at least you bought it.) It's propoganda. Crimeans and Eastern Ukrainians, for the most part, would prefer to remain closely tied to Russia. It is only Western Ukraine that doesn't want anything to do with Russia, and that's mostly because of the Ukrainian "Holodomor", or mass starvation that occured in Western Ukrainian in the early 1930's under Stalin's rule. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holodomor http://www.holodomorct.org/ Last edited by nestork : May 13th 14 at 08:43 PM |

It's perfectly OK to have elections where all the opposition leaders have been arrested in the middle of the night, locked up in jail, beaten up, where mysterious Russian troops in uniforms with no identification march through hotels for no reason and patrol at voting locations. All that is OK, because according to you, we know the outcome. No, my position had nothing to do with Crimea at all. Good grief. Of course it had everything to do with Crimea, it was Baird's comments that Canada would not accept the results of the fake, phony and illegal referendum in Crimea that you objected to. What I was objecting to was the Canadian government using the Canadian public's lack of knowledge about Ukraine to make their position sound legitimate. What? You're the only one in Canada who knows what's going on in the Ukraine? No one else watches TV, follows the news? You have nothing to support that Baird or anyone else was using the public's lack of knowledge. "when John Baird got up in our house of Commons and opened his big mouth to say that Canada wouldn't accept a referendum in Crimea because the place was crawling with Russian troops and so every Crimean would be voting to join Russia for fear of being shot. I was posting in here at the time and I was concerned that the people who hear that on the TV would actually believe it. " They should believe it because it's the truth. The free world doesn't accept the validity of totally illegal elections held under the threat of an occupying force. The average Canadian (or American) knows nothing about Ukraine, and would believe that Russian troops there would intimidate the Crimeans into voting the way Putin wants. In fact, nothing could be further from the truth. The Russian troops that arrived in Crimea were greeted by the Crimeans with flowers, food and baked goods. So what? That means every Ukrainian citizen living in the Crimea concurs with and accepts that position? And if everyone agrees with them, then why the need for tanks, secret Russian troops in unmarked uniforms, arresting the opposition, taking over govt buildings, etc? What you're referring to as "mysterious Russian troops marching through hotels and patrolling voting locations" actually were there to protect the Crimeans from Anti-Russian Ukrainians. You've obviously bought into Putin's lies. If anyone doesn't know what the hell is going on in the Ukraine, it's clearly you. Ukraine is a country divided and there is a lot of bad blood and hatred over there. Moving Russian troops into Crimea to protect Pro-Russian Crimeans/Ukrainians was a reasonable move by Putin. Sure, just like Hitler went into the Sudentland to "protect" them. You're all over the map. On the one hand, you claim there was no need for an election, because all of Crimea wanted to join Russia. Now you're claiming Putin had to send secret troops in unmarked uniforms into Crimea, while also putting 50,000 troops, armored divisions on the border, to protect the people. It's precisely the other way around. It's the minority that opposes Putin, that had no say, was beaten up, and that needed protection. If he didn't do anything to protect the Pro-Russian people in Crimea/Ukraine from Anti-Russian Ukrainians it would have raised MORE EYEBROWS and very well could have resulted in bloodshed in the streets in Crimea. If so many people in Crimea love the Russians, then why do they need protecting from the small minority? You've got it completely backward. The pro-Russians, with the help of Putin's thugs, beat up the minority opposition, arrested anyone in official positins opposed to them. They sent storm troopers through hotels for Christs sake. It's just that people over here in Canada (and the USA) don't know the history of Ukraine, and because there's no civil war there yet, they presume everyone in Ukraine is happy with the status quo, and that's not the case. The one making broad presumptions here is you. You presume people in Canada and the USA are too stupid to follow the news. What the people of all free countries know is that: A - the referendum was totally illegal. Following similar logic, it's OK for Michigan to have a fake, phony referendum to join Canada and B - that holding such a referendum with foreign troops holding guns on people is not a legitimate election under any circunstances. My point was that Crimeans would have voted to become part of Russia regardless of whether there were Russian troops in Crimea or not. John Baird (and your US government) were making it sound that they could legitimately ignore the results of the Crimean referendum because those people were voting under duress, and that was blatant propoganda. What you don't understand is that Crimea had no legal right whatsover to hold that referendum, period. It's like Michigan holding a referendum to leave the USA and join Canada. And to do it with Canadian armed forces, in unmarked uniforms, inside Michigan. With the opposition beaten up, arrested, in jail. That is what Baird objected to. So did most of the free world. Neither the Canadian nor the American governments could think of a GOOD reason to ignore the Crimean referendum, There are two very good reasons. It was totally unconstitutional and illegal. And it was done with secret Russian forces having locked up the opposition, monitoring polls, doing whatever they please. Is that the way you conduct elections in Canada? and so they came out with that BS about the Russians intimidating the Crimeans, and for the most part, the public bought it. It's not intimidating when you beat up and arrest political opponents? When you take over govt buildings, burn Ukranaina flags? When Russia sends troops into a sovereign country that they are at peace with? Oh and to top it all off, the Russians specifically guaranteed the sovereignty of *all* of the Ukraine back in the 90s. They signed a treaty backed up by 160 countries of the world, with the USA and UK, the designated countries, signing on those other countries behalf. How about that part of Ukranian history? The Ukranine was the 3rd largets nuclear force in the world and they gave up those nuclear arms in that treaty that guaranteed the sovereignty of the Ukraine. So, there;s that history. Do you think Putin would have done what he did if Ukraine still had nukes? And what message does what Putin just did send to Iran, North Korea or any other nuclear power, where the world is trying to get them to comply? I'll tell, you what message it sends. You better keep the nukes, because the treay is worthless. Putin has taken us straight back to the Cold War. It's just that some people don't realize it yet. (Or, it seems that at least you bought it.) It's propoganda. Crimeans and Eastern Ukrainians, for the most part, would prefer to remain closely tied to Russia. So, what? That in no way justifies what Putin did, any more than it justified Hitler taking the Sudetenland. It is only Western Ukraine that doesn't want anything to do with Russia, and that's mostly because of the Ukrainian "Holodomor", or mass starvation that occured in Western Ukrainian in the early 1930's under Stalin's rule. Sure everyone else just loves the thug Vladimir. Maybe Quebec should hold a referendum with Russian tanks at the polls and decide to join Russia too. |

Decapitated Birds Found On Streets In Vegas Neighborhood
"HomeGuy" Home@Guy.com wrote in message ... Do you americans have any limits to your depravity? ========================================= Decapitated Birds Found On Streets In Vegas Neighborhood May 9, 2014 LAS VEGAS (CBS Las Vegas) - Residents in the valley's east side are disgusted by what they've been finding in the streets. Piles of beheaded birds are being dumped in seemingly random locations throughout the area, reports KLAS-TV. Helen Arciaga, a Charleston Boulevard thrift shop owner has found several dead birds in an alley behind her store. "Oh, where did this come from?" she asks. "Oh my good Lord it stinks." Street cleaner Ryan Roskins tells KLAS-TV he's been seeing many of the birds as he makes his rounds. "The first time I saw it, it was a large rooster," he said. "Everything else is there, feet, feathers. It's just decapitated." He has a theory for the increase in the gruesome finds. "I actually think it must be voodoo," said Roskins. A West African priest tells the station that may not be the case. He says people practicing the religion of Santeria or Ifa use animal sacrifices like chickens, pigeons or goats as a means of protection or as a way to cleanse the body. "They might be wiping themselves with the bird, letting the blood and then having to discard the body," Ifa priest Duane Reece said. He says where the bird's body is dumped depends on what the spirit or deity is calling out for. "Just like a first communion, just like a baptism, all of these ways are ways humans use to communicate." But for business owners like Arciaga, the rituals can't stop soon enough. "I'm sorry for what we saw today." http://lasvegas.cbslocal.com/2014/05...-neighborhood/ Wacky! And here we have this! http://www.oneshoediaries.com/blog/f...-washington-2/ |

But, you're an adult and you can believe what/whom you like. The referendum is probably illegal, but if 90 percent of the people of Crimea want to separate from Ukraine and join Russia, then keeping the Crimea in Ukraine against their will serves no one's best interest. Most Western Ukrainians want Ukraine to stay together and to remain a separate country, but if it's gonna split, they'd prefer to split and western Ukraine become part of the European Union. Most Eastern Ukrainians would prefer to live in a Ukraine that was unified, but if it's gonna split, they'd prefer to retain closer ties with Russia. In the 1960's, Kruschev, on a visit to Kiev, basically gave the Crimea to Ukraine. Prior to that it was part of Russia. The Soviet Union has always maintained a large navy in the Crimea, and very many of the families that live there today are descended from Russians that moved there as part of their naval careers. So, Crimea has always had a strong Pro-Russian sentiment and any referendum there would naturally say that Crimea would prefer to leave Ukraine and join Russia. The fact that people there overwhelmingly voted that way DOES NOT mean they voted under duress. Last edited by nestork : May 14th 14 at 02:33 AM |

Whales die all the time and their bodies (if inflated with methane gas from decomposition) wash up on shore. If the whale is far out at sea, after the methane gas escapes from the carcass, it sinks to the sea floor where it provides nutrition for all the scavengers in the ocean that feed on dead fish (which also sink after they die). A whale like that would provide a lot of food for scavengers for months or even years. Apparantly, the whale is going to be cut up and it's skeleton sent to a museum in Ontario. Messy and smelly work though it would be. Who will be the lucky person to make the first puncture in a 90 ton bloated whale? I think they once used explosives in California. Whale stuff landed everywhere, except in Detroit. I think. 'possums climb into dead cows through the rectum and eat from the inside out. Poke a hole in the cow and they run out. Stand back... |

If that's what you're being told, then you're being lied to. What on earth are you talking about now? Who's lying about what? Most of the civilized world has rejected the fake, phony, illegal referendum staged in the Ukraine. Among those countries are the USA, Canada, UK, Germany, France. And NATO, speaking for all the NATO countries, has expressed their disapproval of what Putin is doing. NATO has responded by increasing their joint activities with the NATO countries in the rest of Eastern Europe. That's about as strong a message of united disapproval as you can get about anything. But, you're an adult and you can believe what/whom you like. You haven't cited a damn thing here that's a lie. All you're bitching about is that Baird is "lying", because like the countries above, he rejects illegal, fake referendums done under the gun. The referendum is probably illegal, Probably? but if 90 percent of the people of Crimea want to separate from Ukraine and join Russia, then keeping the Crimea in Ukraine against their will serves no one's best interest. That may be true. But there are other ways of achieving that goal, other than Russian force, illegal referendums, etc. It's funny that you reject Canadians as stupid, uninformed, manipulated, while accepting as gospel those fomenting trouble in Eastern Ukraine. What do you think the education level of those people who want to join Russia is? And as for a 90% vote, that's about what the separatist's got with the opposition leaders arrested, beaten up, legitimately elected Crimean officials in jail, unmarked Russian troops in Crimea, etc. So, clearly the true number is no where near 90%. Most Western Ukrainians want Ukraine to stay together and to remain a separate country, but if it's gonna split, they'd prefer to split and western Ukraine become part of the European Union. Most Eastern Ukrainians would prefer to live in a Ukraine that was unified, Now you've really gone off the rails. If that's the case, then what are you bitching about? They just held another fake, phony, illegal referendum in Eastern Ukraine under the same circumstances as what was done in Crimea. And they say the outcome of that vote was that they want to join Russia too. but if it's gonna split, they'd prefer to retain closer ties with Russia. In the 1960's, Kruschev, on a visit to Kiev, basically gave the Crimea to Ukraine. Prior to that it was part of Russia.

So, Crimea has always had a strong Pro-Russian sentiment and any referendum there would naturally say that Crimea would prefer to leave Ukraine and join Russia. The fact that people there overwhelmingly voted that way DOES NOT mean they voted under duress. No, what means they voted under duress were that Russian armored divisions totaling 50,000 were massed on the border, Russian special forces in unmarked uniforms were in Crimea, all the elected officials opposed were arrested and put in jail, opposition leaders/protesters were openly beaten up. That's what makes it under duress. |

That's what makes it under duress. This whole thing was a strategic plan of Putin. He violated international agreements, that even he signed. He wanted complete control of Crimea. He wants Eastern Ukraine, because the is were most of the wealth is located. He can control the grain trade, control the pipe lines there that cross from Russia to ensure his financial interest and hold Europe hostage to gas and oil. Most of Ukraine's GDP comes from the eastern part of the country. This is where most of the factories are located. He sent special forces in with unmarked uniforms so it would appear this was internal conflict and not his aggression. He wants to control as much wealth there as possible. Those troops without military insignia are not covered under the Geneva Conventions (think Taliban / Al-Qaeda) should have been shot immediately by Ukraine forces. Putin knows what he is doing and is playing from his KGB playbook. |
