(40 posts)fails to address why a bunch of thugs decided to dress up in uniforms, take up arms and occupy Gov buildings back in March
(were they threatened? Oh wait, all those Ukrainian armed forces did not show up in the area until two months AFTER the fact, so..)
LOVED the interviews. They are not even trying to hide the fact that armed foreigners are fighting (and killing) Ukrainians
So, overall, not a total waste of time, but your vatnik buddies should probably put a better spin on the whole 'why we are actually fighting' thingie

(23,946 posts)volunteers from at least 15 different countries have shown up to fight. On both sides. And that doesn't even count the Blackstone paid mercenaries fighting for the Kiev side. At least 400. And military trainers, also mostly on the Kiev side.
Any time a documentary is put together, they have to assume that viewers have at least some familiarity with the topic at hand. At least have read an article or two beforehand. You seemingly have failed that test.

(40 posts)..and raise you Russian regular military fighting for the terrorist side
and Dino Riders (since posting unsubstantiated trash is fine in your book, why just stop at Russian military?)
But seriously, this falls flat as a propaganda piece, look for something better please. Hint: focus on the reason why the terrorists are not terrorists, as the side that picked up the arms first does not get to complain when the police/military shows up in the area to restore control, play around with the timeline, twist some facts (link up with other vatniks on the board if in doubt, they are constantly refining their talking points on the matter), otherwise no sympathy points. Second, the whole thing needs to look homegrown, so no foreign fighters on camera please, that was just stupid. Third, put those weapons away, otherwise people start wondering if they came from Russia or something and with the whole conflict inevitably going to the Hague at some point, Pootie would not appreciate you providing this kind of video evidence
Blackstone, lol..
