Do you have any idea how easy it is to find a guy with a cracked skull and a broken arm out back of a strip joint or bar any night of the year?
You have said nothing of substance about the video but that’s OK. Maybe some other time.
There, all better.

OH...yeah that makes sense. Thanks for the clarification Rashputin. Al Jazeera is known as a beacon of truth, and I didn’t think they would intentionally slander christians. (sarc)
When the crowd in Kiev were showing off how oppressed they were and how awful the government was, there were photos and little clips of video flooding the Web. Now, not so much.
So, are the cell towers all down? Has Internet service been dramatically reduced? If either is true, wouldn't the evil Russians causing enough damage to have that effect draw EU reporters the way dog dung draws flies?
It's all too convenient, too conveniently the same at all sources, and too conveniently limited to what one side (the new boss, same as the old boss) wants spread.
Add to that the Al Jazeera making it clear who they support (the new boss) and you've got an interesting mix of "information".
In a situation like this, it's normal for both sides to be untrustory sources putting out truth mixed with lies and spin.
In this case you can trust the "government" in Kiev, though. You can trust a "government" that pretends Right Sector on the one hand and Tartar Muzzies (well known for supporting Jihad against the West) on the other, are the "innocent targets" of "sneaky Russian guys not in evidence" to put out nothing but lies and to try and shout down anything they don't approve of.
Especially since the anti-terror troops they sent to Eastern Ukraine basically gave the "government" that sent them the finger. If their own Army doesn't trust them and tells them to stuff it, why should anyone else trust them and protect them?
Ukraine has been a pile of sleeping dogs since long before the Soviet Union fell apart. The EU kicked one dog and the rest woke up. They should have let sleeping dogs lie rather than kicking the one big dog they didn't like.
