Re: Mind's Eye Ukraine

That area whole area is constantly  one of tension and hatred. The religious community hierarchy is aware of the problem because the people themselves do not want to change.

stumbled across this poem thought it was interesting  was printed originally in the San Francois times:

Here's what the poem said:
Our generation will be known for nothing.
Never will anybody say,
We were the peak of mankind.
That is wrong, the truth is
Our generation was a failure.
Thinking that
We actually succeeded
Is a waste. And we know
Living only for money and power
Is the way to go.
Being loving, respectful, and kind
Is a dumb thing to do.
Forgetting about that time,
Will not be easy, but we will try.
Changing our world for the better
Is something we never did.
Giving up
Was how we handled our problems.
Working hard
Was a joke.
We knew that
People thought we couldn't come back
That might be true,
Unless we turn things around
(Read from bottom to top now)


Reading from bottom to top, the poem reads:
Unless we turn things around
That might be true,
People thought we couldn't come back
We knew that
Was a joke.
Working hard
Was how we handled our problems.
Giving up
Is something we never did.
Changing our world for the better
Will not be easy, but we will try.

We were the peak of mankind.
Never will anybody say,
Our generation will be known for nothing.

About 70% of Russian energy going west goes through Ukraine.  About half of the country is Russian.  Before WW2 administration was split between Poland and USSR, roughly the split between Ukrainian and Russian speakers now.  Ethnically both sets are East-Slav.  Oil and gas have been found in west Ukraine.  The mostly pro-Russian people live east of a line about 50 miles from Kiev.  I haven't been since Soviet days, but the ethnic hatreds were deep and legion.  The whole region has centuries of conflict that makes the US Civil War look tame and almost civilized.

The Russians don't want war and about 80% evade their draft.  I suppose the worrying thing is that WW1 started over less and took only 37 days to kick off.  The relevant armies were hopelessly unprepared back then as now.  The obvious answer is a new partition and we may see this as the defacto position in a few days s various militias rise in the east.  Atrocities have been the norm in the past.  I can't see how anyone gains other than through financial manipulation.  My heart goes out to the poor sods caught up in it.

I have no idea what goes on.  I don't have any roubles.  While reading up on some history I did read that Krushchev ceded control of the Crimea to Kiev in 1954, Stalin expelled the Tartars killing 45% and that there were genocidal starvations.  I sort of knew this stuff, but was amazed to discover Sevastopol was the centre of massive slaving of Europeans to the Middle East, mostly by the Tartars - who sacked Moscow in 1751 taking thousands into slavery.  This European slavery continued after the bombardment of Algiers in 1816.

It looks to me as though the Russians were enticed into invading Crimea.  This has crashed the rouble and their stockmarket - one wonders who was short on both positions.  The only thing I'e noticed is the reliance of western Europe on Russian energy.  Anyone any ideas?
