It really surprises me how few people understand the economic reality that sits behind grants/loans/subsidies to sovereign nations. They are effectively hidden subsidies of the donating nations arms manufacturers at the taxpayers expense. If more people only realised this, they might not so readily support the media propaganda campaigns to hammer and depricate social assistance payments given to the poor and needy at home.
The IMF story might be included in Tooth's upcoming gardening show, "Bouquets, Blooms and Bullshit"?

Most people think that the loans are to help developing countries build infrastructure or feed, clothe and house the unfortunates in such countries. And they are happy to do that. And that's the way it is spun on tv. As you say, that's not really what it is for. Foreign aid has always benefited the donor country far more than the recipients.

Andriy Parubiy, co-founder of the Neo-Nazi Social-National Party of Ukraine (subsequently renamed Svoboda) and now head of the National Security and National Defense Committee (RNBOU), and two chums - freeze frame at 19 seconds to see all three together:
[video=youtube_share;yqL6wQ4RHaw]http://youtu.be/yqL6wQ4RHaw[/video]
Now for footage of these two Parubiy chums in the thick of things before and during the massacre.
The mustachioed charmer on the right in the above is one Mykola (Мыкола), who is reportedly a "centurian," a leader of a Pravy Sector "100" combat group, no less, on the phone to the Interior Ministry:
[video=youtube_share;_QD95RRrJ48]http://youtu.be/_QD95RRrJ48[/video]
And a little later, the same man bravely firing a hand gun at the terrified occupants of the Trade Union building as they sought air at open windows, or perched precariously on ledges:
[video=youtube_share;FcLxDz1f1DI]http://youtu.be/FcLxDz1f1DI[/video]
The second Parubiy lieutenant shown in the first footage - he's the large, heavy-set guy between Parubiy and Mykola - is almost certainly the same man we see walking away, at 3 mins 38-42 seconds in the following footage. He's walking away from the captured fire engine, in a dark, hooped shirt, using his mobile phone as he does so:

Does anyone know the second guy's name?
Sir Herbert Tooth is currrently en route to liberated Ukraine at the behest of the George Soros Free Ukraine Media Initiative (FRUMIN), where he will be a guest of oligarch Shmuel V. Potash IV, the recently appointed head of the town of Slavansk (and surviving outhouse). It is intended that the next broadcast of Cotswold Free Radio will come from the mobile studios of Radio Bandera on Victory Day. Scheduled guests include the former British ambassador to Kiev, Sir Richard Kydd-Fiddler; legendary BBC foreign reporter, Romney Pott; and Semen Strangler, the media relations man for the Right Sector.

Pity, but I won't be listening to that as I won't allow myself to be contaminated by foreign news - it's all propaganda aimed at adulterating our great British media industry and heritage.
PS, can't help with the name btw.

Kyiv Post
http://www.kyivpost.com/content/ukraine/...46192.html
A fellow-Putinbot - I'm starting to warm to the title - posted the following on a Daily Torygraph thread:
Quote:The Kyiv Post was founded in October 1995 by an American, Jed Sunden. The chief editor is Brian Bonner, another American, as all the editors Kyiv Post have had to date. Bonner has worked for the OSCE and for a campaign in Washington, D.C., as associate director of "international communications." Amazing, no? Why would an Ukrainian newspaper have "only" Americans as chief editors?

Sir Herbert Tooth, incidentally, is currently held captive by a Slavansk pig-keeper's daughter, 47 year-old spinster Svetlana Vulvaskaya, after the stretch limousine in which he and his party were travelling was inadvertently run over by a reversing National Guard APC. The limousine, supplied by Shmuel Potash, the oligarch appointed by Kiev to "transform the life prospects of the city's inhabitants" (at $10,000 per head, no less), was so badly damaged that its occupants were forced to flee on foot: Tooth was detained after blundering, semi-clothed and concussed, into a nearby sty in pursuit of a bung, while Romney Pott is missing, safely presumed drunk.
News of the other passengers remains sketchy. Sir Richard Kydd-Fiddler is reported to have been arrested in Slavansk's only remaining public toilet, where he claimed he was engaged in research on the notorious Privy Section, and was promptly beaten senseless by Oleh Liashko's* muscular entourage, many of whose members were also present. He is reliably reported - by the Guardian's Luke Harding, no less - to be in a deeply satisfied condition in a Ukrainian National Guard field hospital. The Waugh (pronounced "Warrg") sisters, on the other hand, have embedded in a Right Sector detachment, where, they twitter, they contentedly knit wolfsangels while awaiting transport back to the Potash compound.
*Liashko continues to pioneer new and enlightening forms of electoral communication:

Why am I not surprised about this? For any one still laboring under the illusion that the former Soviet states now have a free press I recommend watching Mediastan to put that one to bed.

He'll need these skills, it would appear, as it's reported that he's been captured in Mariupol.

I heard this too though unconfirmed at this stage.

The essence of the plot was to contrive a confrontation, and use the enraged football ultras, the victims of the red arm-banded pseudo-gang members' carefully limited attacks, as the cover for the pre-planned massacre in the House of Trade Unions.
But what happened when, as was always possible, a red arm-banded pseudo-gang member became isolated and potentially at serious risk of injury or perhaps even death at the hands of the football mob?
The answer was simple - send the police to surround and protect him.
Here is how it was done on the day:
