My point is there is so much more happening, and groups operating in Ukraine then what is being reported in MSM. Here is an example..and this guys a nutcase terrorist bad guy!...but they are willing to consider these thugs...we know nothing of these militia's operating within Ukraine...but you can bet Putin does!

The leader of the 'Ukrainian radical group Right Sector', Dmitry Yarosh, has reportedly 'demanded' the country’s authorities open military arsenals for the group’s fighters. Enrique Ferro's insight:

Many of its violent acts carried out by the group have been well-documented by media and published on YouTube......The fighters used clubs, petrol bombs and firearms against the Ukrainian police....... Even after the coup, some members of the movement continued to use rifles and pistols. On Wednesday, a proposal was submitted to the Ukrainian parliament suggesting that Right Sector be pronounced a regular armed unit.

Coup-appointed Prime Minister Arseny Yatsenyuk dismissed three deputy defense ministers over the refusal to support the proposal.

Also on Wednesday, Russia put Yarosh on an international wanted list and charged him with inciting terrorism after he urged the notorious Doku Umarov, one of the most-wanted terrorists in the world, to attack Russia over the Ukrainian conflict.

against the Ukrainian police

Against militarized Berkut units who used stun grenades, rubber ammo and clandestinely, live ammo, while the protests were still in a peaceful stage.

Yes, Yarosh is a nationalist and a militant with possible ties to Chechen separatists. Another allegation, if I am not confusing him with someone else, was that he had ties to the Israeli commandos. Yarosh had run military-style camps in the West. The Right Sector was instrumental in bringing the revolution to victory. Revolutions are usually done by men like that. Good for them and good for Ukraine.
