Ukraine said 10 paratroopers had been captured and has released video interviews of some of the men. One is quoted as saying "this is not our war".

The incident comes ahead of a key meeting between the Ukrainian and Russian presidents.

Petro Poroshenko and Vladimir Putin are at a summit in Minsk in Belarus.

Is there a Russian equivalent of Steve Urkel?

Maybe so, but I wonder if the direction signs were as confusing as the signs going into Mexico?

Methinks the map, while interesting, is in fact, somewhat optimistic in favor of Ukr. Army. It does show various cities invested by the Ukr Army. However, this could turn out to be a problem. They continue to be over-extended. They are having difficulty supplying forward areas. The recent armor assault on Mariupol my be a feint. And suddenly Putin may launch a massive assault N. of Luhansk. Swing SW and cut off a significant portion of Ukr. forces.

Before and after WWII started, road signs were removed from a large part of the UK to confuse the Germans if they invaded and any airborne Nazi Terrorists if they ‘visited’.

In the mid 1990’s some of the signs in the Devon and other western counties of the UK were still missing in some rural parts. We can attest how confusing that was to us trying to meet people off the beaten paths.

Russia should buy Smart Phones and have Google keep them from getting lost.

Well, they probably took all of their cell phones because when they were posting on social network it showed they were in Ukraine. Of course, our Putin-loving Putinista poltroons never believe it, but it was an embarrassment for the Kremlin.

I have a problem believing either side in this tragedy.

The irony is lies and propaganda can be rapidly spread by both sides with cell phones using the social networks.

The converse, is how the real truth can come through the social nets as in this situation.

That last reality continues to expose the daily lies of the Obozos in charge of America.

The Foley beheading did more to expose how the Obozos can no longer cover for the Serial Killers known as ISIS.

Stay safe, my friend.

I agree. It seems that that beheading has woken up a lot of people even more than the mass slayings, rapes, serial car bombings, etc. It's all been out there for a long time to alert people to the savage and nihilistic nature of these beasts. Putin and ISIS share at least two things in common. They're both waging undeclared war on peaceful people who pose no threat to them. See the link.
