There are plenty of barbarians on both sides (4:50 onwards in particular).

Ex-wife's grandmother was a Ukrainian Jew, fled the bullshit-Got several American revolutionary war patriots from my mother's side, most-likely destined to be another front-line protester of political and police state bullshit in this lifetime-

ALL politicians and their complicit enforcers need be rendered into history's forgotten ranks-

Very sad...

Hard to imagine this not getting a whole lot worse.

Coming soon to a city or country near you. Better get yer boots and gloves on. OH, and ditch those tinfoil hats....

I've noticed a predictable yet still disheartening trend in the comment threads of many videos covering the Ukraine uprising: anti-Occupy Wall Streeters pointing to the relative pacifist nature of the Occupy movement as proof of that movement's insincerity and ineffectiveness.

What the anti-Occupy folks need to understand is that the only thing separating America from the Ukraine is that a weak ember of faith that the system can still be reformed with non-violent tactics still smolders in the hearts of the have-nots and will-never-haves.

They should be celebrating and thanking their gods for the non-violent nature of Occupy yet they mock and draw erroneous conclusions that have the potential to produce a hell on earth that until today, only happens on their televisions in distant lands.

'Lands' are also not so distant any longer so much as they are some abstract concept to most people having never traveled outside of their computer chair or suffered directly from an overtly oppressive regime or prolonged conditions of want or discomfort in the last three generations. Let the grocery trucks stop running in Canada or the United States for a couple of months and consider the change of heart and attitude. Breadlines??? Unavailability of fuels? How soon folks forget that the entire world teeters with some seriously fucked-up psychopaths at the helm in recent history.

How little people care to consider history as a warning.
