> What I don't get is the livid emotionalism in this thread

because this in absolutely no way helps to bring out peace and rather stokes animosity. We are seeing more and more divisions in our society with such cringe worthy actions.

The US is now arming the right-wing neo-nazi Asov battalion with stinger missiles and arms to fight Russian occupation. Deja Vu?

Javelin anti-tank weapons are on their way, speculation is whether there will also be Stinger anti-aircraft missiles.

There is also talk of sending MIG-29 from the EU to help Ukraine.

The source is needed for the commenter's claim that these toys are en route to the Azov Battalion specifically, obviously and of course.

Not for the suggestion that they might be headed to the Ukrainian MVD.
