Ukraine’s self-imposed president Aleksandr Turchinov has ordered the protester-held local govt HQ in Donetsk to be taken under ‘state protection’ as armed personnel and armored vehicles have been reported moving into the eastern region of Ukraine.
According to a decree signed by Turchinov, the local administration building in Donetsk and surrounding territory is an “important government facility, which is a subject to state protection.”
The decree entered into force upon signature and Turchinov has already given Ukraine's state security service appropriate directions, Itar-Tass reports.
Ukraine’s acting interior minister Arsen Avakov stated earlier on Wednesday that a “special police task force” had already arrived in Donetsk, Lugansk and Kharkov from western regions of Ukraine and was ready to take them under control within 48 – using force, if needed.

The 48 hour deadline given by Kiev could be the trigger for violence, and a Russian response.
Note this part, it could be important later: "About a hundred fighters from the newly-formed Ukraine’s National Guard reportedly arrived in the airport of Donetsk, the deputy director of a local group called People’s Militia of Donbas, Sergey Tsyplakov, told Ria Novosti.
“In Donetsk airport about a hundred of people from the National Guard have been housed,” Tsyplakov said. “Around a hundred of Right Sector thugs are also in the city, as well as a hundred employees from a private US military company operating under contract with Kiev junta.”
“Totally around 300 professionals or well-trained and motivated fanatics,” Tsyplakov added. “This is a major force, but we are ready to fight.” "
Haha. The Russians do have a way with words.
It is so nice that Mr.Obama is not interfering in this conflict....
“It is so nice that Mr.Obama is not interfering in this conflict....”
This conflict is BECAUSE of Obama and his radical staff. If they had not gotten directly involved in Ukraine, Putin wouldn’t be looking at a huge territorial gain being handed to him on a silver platter.
This much is obvious... sorry for forgetting the /sarcasm tag
(my own orignal verse, with regards to R. Kipling)
The Bear that prawls in the woods has eyes,
The cold eyes of Muscovy.
But probe the depth where the coldness lies:
Russia was never free!
They died for the Tsars, both Red and White,
They all died quite willingly.
But, oil lamp or electric light,
Russia was never free!
Millenia saw them engage in pursuit
Of cruel Grand Tartary.
But whether they wear fur coat, or suit,
Russia was never free!
That hyborian land produced grand Designs
And Masters literary,
But whether its rockets, or long bread lines,
Russia was never free!
Some say that in Russia death brings out the best,
There’s beauty in its savagery.
But whether it lingers, or laid to rest,
Russia is never free!
“...armed personnel and armored vehicles have been reported moving into the eastern region of Ukraine...”
I’m losing track of who’s who. Is it the Nazis, the commies or the Soros neo-cons manning the armored column?
RT reported that George Soros himself was piloting a tank, manned by neo-Nazis.
Oh, gee. The neo-con clown car has arrived and look who tumbled out.
“neo-con?” How does that translate into Russian, by the way?
““neo-con?” How does that translate into Russian, by the way?”
Why would I care? Translate your Soros propaganda crap however you want, neo-con clown.
“I am George Soros. And I live under your bed.”
Cute but sophomoric.
Kinda like your #9.
If I understand correctly, neo-con is what careful anti-semites use as code for Jewish. See also, any reference to international bankers.
