The soldiers were filmed looking through the personal effects of people. It's pretty morbid, and you could certainly argue disrespectful, although it would need to be done by somebody, it's a natural thing to do.

Moreover, the media are reporting this as some kind of defilement of the dead, but yesterday I watched in horror as a SKY Journo went into a suitcase, picked up a child's toy and held it to the camera adding, "this is clearly a young girls case", rifled through a few other bits in the case, before saying, "actually, we probably shouldn't be doing this".

If you are talking about actual items being stolen, I haven't heard of that happening.

It's about time Angela Merkel got more involved. The one European leader Putin might just listen to.

Russia needs the west more than the west needs Russia.

So what if gas prices have to go up? IF it's proven that the Russian backed militants are responsible, then Europe, as a whole, has to stand together and act.

I would challenge that Russia needs the West. I think there could be a rapprochement with China, after all there are hardly the dialectical differences over Stalin/Mao these days.

Looking ominously more like "1984" three decades later..

If this is true then the description "Untermensch" can rightfully be applied to the looters.

applying that term to slavic peoples is a bit dodgy to be fair.

according to people who need to sell papers and news streams belongings have been looted. could well be they are looking for documentation and identification, they are hardly just going to leave stuff lying around eh.

I did say "if true". These aren't soldiers, they are lowlife goons that have been plucked off the streets and handed Kalashnikovs and bottles of vodka.

Quite right , also they said the bodies had disappeared ?? it is correct into a refrigerated train in black bags with labels on , not so bad after all , at least it's four days less decomposed , perhaps they are normal human beings after all ?

And why is he doing that?

Don't know can't understand it , even when there was uproar in the East and Crimea at the coup in Kiev the Prime Minister (as the President wasn't elected then) didn't even visit them to ask their feelings or found out what there opinions were , not even one member of parliament . So it was only going one way from then unfortunately .

Not a lot considering him shelling his own people . The Prime Minister is just as bad .

Oh wait, Arseniy Yatsenyuk, the PM, that is who I meant.
