Ukrainian leader threatens to blow up RU gas pipelines.
2014-03-19
UkraineÂ’s deputy national security chief and leader of the nationalist group Right Sector threatened to destroy RussiaÂ’s gas pipelines in retaliation for the countryÂ’s recent actions in Ukraine.

Dmitry Yarosh, who is also running for president in the upcoming May elections in Ukraine, told media that this aggressive action would have to be attempted to stop “World War III” and punish Russia for their intervention into his native country, Forbes reports.

“We cannot allow the enemy to carry out a blitzkrieg attack on Ukrainian territory,” Yarosh said, according to The International Business Times.

“Let the ground burn under the feet of the occupiers! Let them choke on their own blood when they attack our territory! Not one step back! We will not allow Moscow’s beserk, totalitarian regime to spark a Third World War!” Yarosh declared in his interview with Ukrainian media.

#5  This AM ...

* RUSSIA TODAY > UKRAINE QUITS THE CIS, SETS UP VISA REGIME WID RUSSIA, WANTS CRIMEA TO BE A "DEMILITARIZED ZONE".

"GUANTANAMO/GITMO" NOT-ON-THE-HUDSON, WID RENO-LAS VEGAS CHARACTERISTICS + RUSSIAN ORTHODOX CHURCH???

RussFed "Gitmo" in the Crimea, NATO Milbases in Ukraine, Reno-Las Vegas = FTZS/SEZS in-between.

Methinks Frank Sinatra + "Don Corleone" will go for that.

#3  Russia won't stand for that either.

Although judging by the reductions in Russian gas exports to Europe in recent years, there should be plenty of spare capacity on other routes.

#1  Be it anti-US OWG Globalism or the "Great Game", a Russo-Ukrainian war, US-Russia, or Euro-Russia war plays into the hands of the Soon-to-be-Nuclear Hard Boyz + their similarly Soon-to-be-Nuclear Global Jihad.

Plus any other Wannabe Govt-State + non-Muslim MilTerr Group(s) out there.
