>>The lack of discussion on this topic on this board and other SI boards I visit, is also indicative of a world society which is extremely self centered and selfish What exactly would you have us do about it? There are enough issues with our own house, see: Chomsky: Talks at Google, 4/8/14: youtube.com

I am posting an e-mail from a Ukrainian grandmother who served in the Red Army before and then Ukrainian Army and retired several years ago she is about 60 years old. Similar writing I received from many in Ukraine, nice friendly people - knowing many of them since I explored the possibility of a project within Donetsk Oblast near Mariupol and Kherson. It is in Russian or Ukrainian can be translated with "BING" of Microsoft to sense the tragedy which is a results of wanting power and oppress other people Yes, dear, you are right. and there are now in Eastern Ukraine. I too am in the East. fighting. fire (at or burning) schools many banks, stores. closed. Everywhere all bash the-a ktovse it does. it is unknown because all masked. I was recently in Russia. Yes there are people, too, are very worried that these things are bad things happening in the world all people wish us peace, and it does not work, because the other countries intervene. Thu Government can not do anything, is brother to brother the father, the son, and blood is shed. my grandson now nahditsâ out there now, 19 years, over the phone, ask him not to go to fight. very scary for all, again there are ubityei wounded people. Not all is translated correctly

The lack of discussion on this topic on this board and other I have a brother out there in Kiev. I talked to him at the weekend, and he has become ever more despondent about the situation with Russia which is unusual for him. He requested that we (his immediate family) make as much complaint about the situation as possible. His family and friends are Ukrainian nationalists. So I was encouraged by your post as I had similar thoughts as your own -g- You seem to be a small minority of public opinion though. I see the situation as very dangerous. If the Ukrainian military attack the pro Russian trouble makers, and I think they have every intention of doing that, the Russian Military could get involved and the situation escalate to a world wide stand off in microseconds. So that's my view.
