The leader of the far-right Ukranian Nationalist Pravy Sektor (Right Sektor) party has reportedly threatened to attack Russia's lucrative gas pipeline which travels through Ukraine to prevent the Kremlin from sparking a "Third World War.'

I think the THREAT of destroying Russian pipelines might start WWIII. What would we do if an activist in another country threatened to destroy our pipelines? Oh, never mind.
Obama wants to destroy our pipe lines. He is a fascist and a Preezy all in one!
I said yesterday that if Putey tries to take the Ukraine the resistance will blow the stew out of that pipeline. Who didn’t know that would happen?

[ Neo-Fascist Leader Yarosh Vows To Destroy Russia’s Gas Pipelines To Stop ‘World War III’ ]
Wouldn’t that actually START WW-III?
Especially with “Bumbling Barry” at the Helm of the US...
the real deal akin to the national socialist movement of america and such freaks, svoboda are sieg heilin neo nazis
sorry but that guy is a leader of a group even more radical then svoboda, his group views svoboda as too soft because they dont openly advocate full blown genocide of non whites
Why would he broadcast his intentions? Doesn’t make sense.
Well, a good robbery needs a good timeline. From the inside and the outside- perhaps, the theft is a ruse.
So, he's probably not going to be real good buddies with Obama.
That’s why Putin has 60,000 troops at the border.
I’m guessing that the more committed Ukrainian nationalists may figure that Putin will continue to gradually slice off chunks of Ukraine, until Putin has what he wants, and what remains is too weak to do much about it. It’s another form of incrementalism. At any given step, the Russian agression is not “big” enough for the West to honor its formal Security Assurances to Ukraine, and Ukraine doesn’t have the firepower to defeat concentrated Russian forces in the East.
So, the tactic might be to blow the pipelines at Ukraine’s far western border, once warmer weather arrives. This cripples Russia’s economy, forcing them to cross the entire Ukraine, through a lot of hostile terrain. (To use another poster’s word) the opposition goal is to “tarball” ‘em. Ukraine lost something like 19% of its population in WW2, and still came out of it a subject country. My guess is that the opposition would accept 500k casualties in order to free the Ukraine. Assuming the Russians could maintain a 10:1 kill ratio (I don’t know that they’d be THAT superior in such a conflict, over the long haul) Russia loses 50k soldiers and their economy. I think Russia folds...
The risk is that this takes time: The Europeans, faced with the next winter and severe gas shortages, might turn on Ukraine.
“I wonder why they are wearing the old Buddhist swastika-like symbol? “
Its called a Wolfsangel. Also happened to be exactly the unit symbol of the 2nd SS division “Das Reich”, which had a nightmarish mass murdering history. These guys know exactly what they are wearing and why.
This is why I don’t have any preference in this fight. The Ukrainian revolutionaries are so anti-Semitic that I don’t care if Putin takes the Ukraine or not!
Yes if the Russians are stupid enough to try to take the whole Ukraine they will have another Afghanistan on their hands. The Ukrainians hate their guts. It will be a war of resisitance and guerilla fighting which will sap their bank accounts and will not be popular with the Russian populace.
Purin would have to kiss that pipeline goodbye and it would kill him financially. The last thought on the mind of Ukranians would be keeping the EU war. Putey’s name would be shite in all of Europe. He does not want that. He really wants the Crimea and to keep his naval base safe.
They don’t have a box for him to stand on?
It only starts if they have someone to fight. If these idiots blow up the pipelines they will piss off everyone.
I think you mean the Moslem Brotherhood. Hezbollah is in Lebanon.
