Nothing like a ceremony honoring the thousands of Ukrainians who have been killed, wounded and displaced by his murderous acts to have a few laughs with his cronies.
Petro Poroshenko appeared to laugh during prayers as thousands of people gathered in Kiev on Sunday for a ‘March of Dignity’ to commemorate those who were killed during last year’s Maidan protests.
If you vote Republican or Democrat , please stop.You’ve got enough blood on your hands already.

Imagine if a foreign leader like Putin or Assad came to Washington to encourage protesters to overthrow the Obama Administration!
As we soon found out from a leaked telephone call, the US ambassador in Kiev and Assistant Secretary of State, Victoria Nuland, were making detailed plans for a new government in Kiev after the legal government was overthrown with their assistance.
The protests continued to grow but finally on February 20th of last year a European delegation brokered a compromise that included early elections and several other concessions from Yanukovych. It appeared disaster had been averted, but suddenly that night some of the most violent groups, which had been close to the US, carried out the coup and Yanukovych fled the country.
When the east refused to recognize the new government as legitimate and held a referendum to secede from the west, Kiev sent in tanks to force them to submit. Rather than accept the will of those seeking independence from what they viewed as an illegitimate government put in place by foreigners, the Obama administration decided to blame it all on the Russians and began imposing sanctions!
That war launched by Kiev has lasted until the present, with a ceasefire this month brokered by the Germans and French finally offering some hope for an end to the killing. More than 5,000 have been killed and many of those were civilians bombed in their cities by Kiev.
What if John McCain had stayed home and worried about his constituents in Arizona instead of non-constituents 6,000 miles away? What if the other US and EU politicians had done the same? What if Victoria Nuland and US Ambassador Geoffrey Pyatt had focused on actual diplomacy instead of regime change?
If they had done so, there is a good chance many if not all of those who have been killed in the violence would still be alive today. Interventionism kills.

I wonder if Poroshitko is laughing at the thousands of his troops killed in just the past week or two, and the many more thousands wounded, and the massive loss of military gear.
=================================
Last week, Washington suffered its greatest military defeat in more than a decade when Ukraine’s US-backed army was soundly routed in the major railway hub of Debaltsevo.
Roughly, 8,000 Ukrainian regulars along with untold numbers of tanks and armored units were surrounded in what-came-to-be-known-as “the cauldron.” The army of the Donetsk Peoples Republic led by DPR commander Alexander Zakharchenko, encircled the invading army and gradually tightened the cordon, eventually killing or capturing most of the troops within the pocket. The Ukrainian Armed Forces suffered major casualties ranging between 3,000 to 3,500 while a vast amount of lethal military hardware was left behind.
According to Zakharchenko, “The amount of equipment Ukrainian units have lost here is beyond description.”

The again, maybe he’s laughing because he knows Shitstain McCain will try to give him more Free Shit …. tanks and missiles and artillery and shit.
RT TV plus Ron Paul on Ukraine equals pro-Putler propaganda.
Read the Russian opposition press to learn what’s really taking place in Russia and Ukraine. Google Gary Kasparov, the former chessmaster and now opposition leader, for links to his articles, for starters, if you can’t read Russian. There’s lots of good literautre in English, like Karen Dawisha’s new book, Putin’s Kleptocracy.
