You're talking bad about Muslims, that's all.
Why the conversion anyway? After your recent bout of goofy posts I'm guessing Malaysian GF?

In case one of you hears term "rebel" used for bastards fighting against the country in Ukraine, you think about 2 things:
1) if I go illegally to your country and start killing people, will you call me a rebel?
2) if I kill your parents and children, will you ask your government to lend me a hand and negotiate?
Btw, here is where my parents live (and where I spent 1st 25 years of my life):
Google Maps Search -> "147V, ulitsa Artema, 147Ð’, Donetsk, Donetsk Oblast, Ukraine"
If you read the news, it's right in the heart of the disturbance.

Lugansk now:
1) Border guards' outpost is under attack for the 2nd day. Fresh terrorist forces are continuously arriving (they need a corridor from Russia to Ukraine). Various types of militants are participating in the siege - even Russian Don cossacks in their typical uniforms without hiding their faces or insignia (no criminal case is opened against them in Russia for participation in the war, Russia still denies their participation). Number of terrorists is well over 500. They mounted gun points in living apartment buildings around the outpost - on the roof and inside apartments (residents are locked inside rooms for use as a cover). Air strike is impossible - there are people in apartments. Artillery is not possible too for the same reason. Waiting for any infantry, it is not coming for some reason yet (considering dismal state of Ukrainian army after pro-Russian Yanukovich's rule). There is an outrage among Ukrainians because of slowness of our military.
2) Yesterday inside the city parliament building got a grenade into it - 8 people are dead by now. Terrorists blamed Ukrainian army for an air strike at innocent people. One thing they missed: a lot of web cams on the buildings around the area fixed the moment when somebody shot RPG (or a type of grenade launcher that tracks heat - dunno how it is called in English) from the park into a military airplane passing by. Apparently, the missile got distracted by the aircon emitting heat on the building, and... blew the aircon with the office it was attached to. 2nd argument against air strike: the airplane was far enough already at that moment. 3rd: after an air strike usually the whole or a part of the building collapses, not just some slight facade damage with one window shattered and few office workers killed with debris.

We can see you're going through hard times, but it won't be easy, most people in Singapore don't even know that Ukraine is not part of Russia, just like many people in the West (although by a lesser degree) also don't know that Singapore is not part of China.
In other words, many here sees the conflict as a regional one.
As for the Nobel Peace prize Obama and NATO (No Action Talk Only), I don't think they can do much.

The supreme irony with Obama and the NPP, was that not only did he get it; but that he got nominated for it before he was even the elected President*, and before he had done anything that might merit it.
More of a NBB prize if you like: Not Being Bush.
* Correction: He was 12 days into office.

I assume you're using "most" with a dose of sarcasm.

It is. A "region" can encompass multiple countries.

Russia vs Ukraine- thoughts?

Interested to hear what you all think. Personally think Russia has seriously overstepped, and war should be avoided at all costs.

Western world democracies must do everything possible to support an internal coup in Russia. There is no way that Putin can stay in power when this...
