1.) Salon.com had one, for example. 2.) International Business Times: "Euromaidan: The Dark Shadows of the Far-Right in the Ukraine Protests" 3.) CNN: Opinion: "Rein In Ukraine's Neo-Fascists" 4.) The Daily Beast: "Can Ukraine Control Its Far Right Ultranationalists?"
Some of the MSM outlets that seemed to be acting one way when it came to Libya, for example, acted another way when it came to Ukraine. Obama didn't have the support for Ukraine, it seems, in many reports, that he seemed to have for Libya. Now, the reports are angled at keeping the U.S. out of intervening in Ukraine.
Even American Spectator, that pro-Russian, pro-Putin rag (sarcasm) recently exposed Svoboda.
The past IB Times article - ohhhh those Putinistas! Even the Obama-loving LA Times and NBC News have past articles that rip Svoboda and/or Right Sector. They must be in league with RT!!! /sarcasm.
That would be awesome.
The McCainiacs and Soronistas here will love it!
Well, that was not long... Spund the retreat feom the red line... we just did not have the exact red line you thought we had....
A Ukrainian ‘ultra nationalist’ is a Ukrainian who doesn’t miss being ruled by Moscow.
Screw the Beeb.
Well, that was not long... Sound the retreat from the red line... we just did not have the exact red line you thought we had....
I try to avoid The Genetic Fallacy (an argument’ s validity is tempered by the identity of the one professing it http://www.catholicworldreport.com/Item/2302/arguing_well_by_avoiding_the_genetic_fallacy.aspx ).
However,in the case of the BBC disinformatschiks, I’ll pass.
I remember when they were reporting about the US backing the Neo-Nazi’s in Ukraine and the US appointing them to the new Government. I was especially surprised Salon had chimed in. ....But that was before our media was told they could NOT use the word Nazi in writing or reporting on Ukraine....this then we saw all sorts of “other” names used to define the otherwise obvious.
Now Ukraine has to deal with the ‘hoards of them’ who have come in from other country’s once the word was sent out to gather there.
Love the fact some of us were onto this right from the get go and tried to inform....only to be continually shot down for doing so. It does pay to investigate rather than simply accept the MSM feeding the sheep.
Anyone who believes media even now needs to be careful because it will soon frame Slovada as being “moderate” as they do with the Islamists.
While Svoboda and Right Sector don’t have much support now, they were quite instrumental in the overthrow of Viktor Yanukovych, as the BBC article says. The MSM (both left and right) reported on this, and how they were dangerous elements.
radical Svoboda has three top positions in the Ukraine gov’t right now, as the BBC article says. Apparently still in the mix of things...
What do they remind you of?
