Yes the side of the comtainer reads like something from Dow Chemical. We have our own machine so we know exactly what goes into the ice cream.

That about says it all, Mystic. What would be worse for Ukrainians, being run by Russians or their own Fascist government? Helluva choice, isn't it?

Lots of talk about fascism and very few examples. I am struck by the corruption though.

Meh, everybody has a few fascists slinking around. Greeks fascists, French fascists, Brits have 'em, we've got more than our share in the American Taliban aka the Tea Party. All nationalistic and xenophobic pond scum.

So, Russians are freaking out that less than 5% of the new Ukrainian parliament are such?

Sheesh, these Novo Rus strike me as cut from the same cloth.

What a strange world it would be if everyone behaved like the Hollanders. Need more land? Then take it from the sea and not your neighbor.

More confusion or a threat from the powerful oligarch Igor Golomoisky.

Whatever happens it appears to me that Golomoisky wants to cement his fiefdom.

Ukraine is no Poland.

From everything I've seen it's just this side of a miracle there hasn't been a civil war yet. Seems there's quite a way to go before this play is over.
