First, please don't dispense with the insults. Second, on whose side?

20 million?! How amazing would it be if a Kardashian made it into the history books by determining the outcome of a conflict like this? For generations, Syrian children would read about Kim Kardashian in their history textbooks.

She should lead the charge herself in a pink M1 Abrams while Chloe Kardashian drops smart bombs onto Assad controlled territory. Freedom!

Must have come to her whilst she was staring at her enlarged butt in the mirror. Such a dweeb fails at the process of thinking, instead her existence as a glamourised meatbag for the millions of idiots to drool over is what empowers her to pollute the world with her crap.

This BBC programme tackles this hashtag debacle from various perspectives.

The Russian army is preparing for an invasion of the Ukrainian mainland. The Ukrainian army has vowed to fight back this time to defend their homeland.


They have seized the government buildings. Basically the police doesn't want to push them back violently, probably because they don't want to become as bad as their previous government, or putin, and they are waiting for them to leave.

Besides there isn't as big a Russian population in those cities as in Crimea (Russian and Russian speaking are 2 different things, by the way.)

I call bull. Heightened military activity ≠ war.. Doesn't make it any less distressing though. I'd like to think that Scandinavia generally has nailed down the formula for balanced social welfare and growth for at least a few more generations ahead. To have to allocate more to the military budget in face of Russian harassment is not very productive to the general population. Shame on Mr. Putin Image

Not bull. Putin's chief economic adviser from 2000 to 2005, Andrej Illarionov, says Putin is ultimately after Finland.
