How is that for a “watch” of human right?
The fact is that western human rights organizations are below contempt. Some are political tools in the hands of the Empire (Human Rights Watch), some are full of western intelligence agents (Medecins Sans Frontieres, OSCE monitors), some are lead by cynical bureaucrats who use idealistic young delegates as cannon fodder (ICRC), some are used by big business as a tool (Greenpeace) while others are quasi-official CIA tools (NED, Freedom House, Open Society Foundation, etc.).
The funny thing in this case is that the photo is not taken in Russia, but in the Ukraine, and the riot cops shown here have Ukrainian unit badges. But then, who cares anyway? It’s not like “truth” is a topic that matters to HRW…
The Saker
To NotSoFast, who said “China absolutely respect[s] traditional values like family, hard work . . .”
I would not call slavery a traditional value, although it cerainly qualifies as hard work. Young Chinese women, for example, are forced to work in factories with bars on the windows to prevent them from escaping. No, I do not believe this is propaganda. This practice is well-documented by independent investigate journalists.
So go ahead, China lovers and brainwashed Chinese citizens, accuse me of whatever you like. I’m used to that kind of closed-mindedness here. I visit this site because I’m strongly pro-Novorossiya, supportive of Russia and Putin, and critical of US and EU foreign policy.

” Young Chinese women, for example, are forced to work in factories with bars on the windows to prevent them from escaping”
Some years ago there were the same abuses with children – Chinese culture has a very strong element of corruption – which IMO may be related to their hypercompetitivity – but I do not think that this is the general situation and from what I hear and read about the PCR the family is still the basic cell of society – as it always was in their culture.
Pro-Russian separatists will vote to set up a breakaway regional leadership in eastern Ukraine on Sunday aiming to take their war-torn region closer to Russia and defying Kiev and the Natoists as the big guns still boom across the territory.
The United States and European Union have denounced as illegitimate the vote which is sure too to stoke tensions further between the Nato and Russia.
Once Nazi, today Natoist.
Donovan Kirsten, labour conditions in China have greatly improved. The Chinese simply went through the process that the West underwent in centuries, in a few decades. Moreover Chinese wages are growing rapidly, while Western wages and household incomes are crumbling,and inequality and debt growing to unprecedented levels. And China’s rise, in economic output (now the biggest economy on Earth in PPP terms)in science and technology, in infrastructure, in renewable energy etc, has Western supremacists livid with racist rage and fear. After all did not God/Yahweh promise his ‘Chosen’ Judeo-Christian people, ‘dominion’ over the world forever, as reward for their ‘Exceptionalism’?
“Bodies of 286 women discovered” etc., false report, corrected by Zakharchenko. He was discussing with reporters women missing, not bodies found. Let’s hope they will be found in a refugee camp, not a shallow grave.
Sherlock award to everyone who tracked down the proof of the HRW hoax.
Well done, boys and girls!

What a coincidence!
Doing something else, I came across a story on the hromadske TV site that 5,000 false SBU patches have been sewn onto uniforms by “terrorists” to perform false flag disruptions of tomorrow’s elections.
I can think of other things the “terrorists” might do with 5,000 SBU disguises. :) I’m hoping against hope the story is true. It may be a cover story for planned SBU disruptions of tomorrow’s elections. If they create enough confusion, it could prevent security from shooting people in SBU uniforms on sight. :(

You are right. No “i” letter in Russian language. And even NO MORE such a unit/forces as Militia in Russia. It was renamed to Policia “ПОЛИЦИЯ” several years ago
US не смогли реализовать даже видимость функционирования орбитальной космической станции, а СССР делает новый качественный шаг в этом направлении.

I couldn’t find pictures of the unit badges on the internet and neither found the picture you presented (and I don’t know the Ukrainian alphabet).
So how can I verify what you claim?
AntiNWO said…
Is that an official poster of HRW? I am kinda of cynical it is.
When I went to the Human Rights Watch web page and hit contact at the bottom of the page and then clicked the New York office, that poster popped up, asking me to donate. It’s definitely from their site.
“I couldn’t find pictures of the unit badges on the internet”
You can see a similar red patch in the bbc article photos from May 4 2014 taken in Odessa.
Look at the guy on the far left, he has the same patch and gear:

Far more interesting than watching that pseudo moral verbiage coming from HRW is the open letter to them: “Nobel Peace Laureates Slam Human Rights Watch’s Refusal to Cut Ties to U.S. Government”
