So are Ukrainian Nationalists the dumbest people in the world?

For clinging to an identity of being not-Russian? I think not.

32 Pro-Russians killed in Odessa fire. RT saying it is Right Sector.
Probably set by Russian agents, Reichstag fire style.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Both of which were silly and motivated primarily by ethnic prejudice.

And Kiev wasn't?
You have the logic switched.  Kiev was switched to Kyiv as a fuck-you to Russian speakers.  It has always been Kiev in English and we aren't even going to change our pronunciation.

This is not true.  It has no always been Kiev in English.  It only became so after the Russians took over.   Earliest spelling of Kyiv is "Kiou".
In the 17th Century from the Poles.

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Spellus, you need to stop being a Russian fanboy here.  According to RT the right sector rules the entire country and every bad thing that happens can be ascribed to them.

Looks like it might be Radagast. Certainly not Gandalf or Sauruman. :lol:

Which highlights why people probably say Ivory Coast if they say anything at all.

My keyboard doesn't have a button for the thingy over the "o".

Or the English (International) keyboard layout on Windows, like I use.  Typing o directly after the carat results in ô without having to remember an alt code.
Experience bij!

No, that'd be you, for believing anything you read in RT.

I find it disturbing that there are so many people outside of Russia that consider RT a credible source.

I posted what RT was spinning the event as which is frankly all that matters.
