In reply to the discussion: Ukraine in 48-hour ultimatum to east's pro-Russia activists [View all]jamzrockz
(1,333 posts)4. Oh, they will adopt a different standard for
their supporters. In Uganda, we are supporting the murderous dictator in their fight against the rebels and in Syria we are helping the heart eating, head chopping, suicide bombing rebels against the government. There are no standards when it comes to US policy, so expect the same treatment for the unelected Kiev coup government.
They will use extreme force against the protestors, they will call em terrorists and foreign agents and then go to work on them. Remember the way they accused black Libyans of being foreign mercenaries? and then massacred by the Libyan rebels. The same sort of thing will happen here and nobody will do a damn thing to stop it.

It's also bad to make presumptive statements which you can't back up with real facts.

Yeah, that's almost as bad as making unwarrented, generalized accusations with intent to slander.

Yeah, all pretense of who the "activists" and "protesters" really are has since melted away.

Maybe the activists should try burning tires and throwing fireworks in the town center

No, they're more of the kidnapping journalists and killing politician types.
