To Michael Savage (part 121)

Doc,

Hostilities are not subsiding in Ukraine.
Eastern and Southern Ukrainians don't mind to go home and mind their own businesses, go back to work to feed their families and provide for the rest of the country, as they were doing when in Kiev armed thugs were making the whole mess. Now they want to be heard, they want their referendum to be held on May 11th, and want to govern themselves with more autonomy. That's all. They're not against disarming, but want who started the trouble first to disarm first. The latter sent the military into their regions, they didn't go to west, they're in their homes and they will protect them.
Who can blame this people? It's just beyond me.
Today, in town's cathedral, was the funeral held for 22 year old Alexander Voldentsov who died from gunfire while driving with his friend in his own town of Slovyank, Donetsk region.
Kharkov - Rostov highway is blocked by armed militants who regularly and sometimes randomly are shooting.
A woman working in a store survived by miracle, when a bullet missed her head.
First time commander of volunteer forces called "self-defense of Donbass" Igor Strelkov had an interview with media and press. He underlined that he is not an representative of "Russian military," he is a local man and his job is to organize and help people to protect themselves and their rights in their own homeland.
They call volunteer self - defense groups "people's resistance groups" and got into agreement with local authorities to unite their powers for the common good and peace. On their own side, the rep. of authorities in region, Denis Pushilin said that referendum will be held in May 11th as scheduled.
Whose 12 Europeans who went there in an unmarked small minivan under a false pretense to be from OSCE are detained to uncover their mission. They are not arrested, handcuffed or else. They're feed and respected. Some of them even had their own original professional spy IDs. Who would send a bunch of people without telling the authorities that they're coming and give their schedule or itinerary? How the West underestimates people's intellect so boldly?
Also today apparently was a news release from Pentagon saying that as if Russian military encroached the UA's airspace without mentioning the time and the place. Even UA "authorities" didn't claimed that. Where they get their information from? RF denied it.
The real OSCE observers finally got permission to meet with people's appointed governor of Donetsk region Pavel Gubarev. He was detained by Kiev in 6th of March and was and still is in hunger strike in jail. There was info. that his health is deteriorating. No further info. on this.
My Q is; how did it happen that most of congress members who don't know where UA is can agree to put their noses into its affairs and take tthis country into another conflict?
Another phone call between Lavrov and Kerry; Lavrov asked to use US influence on Kiev to ease the tensions and blockades of roads and towns in the East. Kerry reportedly said "he'll try."
In the meantime UA military helicopter flied on top of the Soledar city in Donetsk region and unknown men opened gunfire on local checkpoint volunteers from the air. Then after landing conducted blitz operation and took one of the defenders hostage. Check at www.RT.com/news/155104-soledar-Ukraine-military-attack.
More American troops sent to Lithuania to "reassure" NATO allies. at www.RT.com/new/155068-us-troops-Lithuania-drills/. For whatever they think they're "reassuring" I'm as a US Citizen embarrassed for them. Not for the soldiers, although they volunteer for service, but for whose who sending them
all over.
After 28 years of Chernobyl catastrophe, Kiev decided to use American nuclear fuel for it. Expert in nuclear energy Raphael Arutyunyan said that at the time accident happened because of some experiment and this can also end up like that.
Even students in Kiev took to the streets against American companies entree into Ukrainian energy market.
Now, doc, do you smell the the oil or do you smell the OIL ???  Remember how good they did in Iraq?
Check www.vesti.ru/doc.html?id=1520263. Apparently firm Westinghouse started it from 2011.
I tald you, something was brewing in in pot. Check also @Ragozin on Twitter, who is the deputy PM on defense energy of RF. I also twitted it @Starlet737, which is mine.
Also check www.vesti.ru/doc.html?id=594426 on RF's defense ministry report.
I can't go into this too much. What if this bozos make a mistake again and it goes around and harm the planet? I remember the day Gorbachev reported the accident in Chernobyl. I was in USSR, just started working as a journalist. We were confused and worried what to do. Luckily the wind was taking it to the west, half of Europe was covered by radioactive air up to Italy, Monaco and Eastern France. Come to think of it, we where so heartbroken for those Europeans who were effected. See what are they doing now?
This takes my brain energy and drains me emotionally. Talking of depression? I should sign out now, can't take it.
Just one more thing below.
On the name of O WH press office talked about more economic sanctions against RF, although mentioning that Int'l big business is not approve of those sanctions, because it creates global uncertainty in business world.  Check www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office.
On Monday in Brussels will be another meeting of EU members (for whatever it's worth).
UA cut the irrigation water for agriculture to Crimea. In the result almost half of the crop is already suffering. Instead UA didn't pay for gas to RF for years, but still having it. Got the picture?

Good bless Putin's patience.
