反クーデター派を鎮圧するためにCIA長官がキエフへ入り、ネオナチの親衛隊を東／南部へ派遣 | 《櫻井ジャーナル》

　キエフのクーデター政権を支援してきた「西側」のメディアも、この政権が人びとから支持されていないことを認めざるをえない状況。ロシアがアメリカの挑発に乗って攻撃してくれば打つ手もあるのだが、自重しているので次の手が打てない。つまり「国境なき巨大資本」やネオコンの願うような展開になっていないということだ。ネオコン、そしてアメリカ政府は追い詰められている。「窮鼠猫を噛む」という諺もあるが、アメリカは挑発をエスカレートさせ、ロシアと戦争を始めかねないと懸念する声も出ている。

'Anti-terrorist' campaign in peril as Kiev's writ fails to reach Ukraine's east | theguardian.com

Officials in Kiev and Washington have blamed Russia for inciting unrest in eastern Ukraine after video footage showed armed men seizing government buildings over the weekend. But any Russian agitation would find fruitful ground: many locals say they hate their new government, and opinion polls show that large chunks of the local population support more independence from Kiev, or even joining Russia.

Local law-enforcement authorities have provided little resistance to pro-Russian protesters and have even gone over to their side in Donetsk and Horlivka.

Widespread support among locals for greater independence from Kiev will make it difficult for the "anti-terrorist campaign" announced by Ukraine's acting president, Oleksandr Turchynov, to root out protesters and end the takeover of government buildings. These continued even after the president offered an amnesty to those who put down their weapons and left captured buildings by Monday morning.

A survey last week by the Donetsk-based Institute of Social Research and Political Analysis found that 32% of the region's residents support greater regional control over the economy and taxation, and 16% support the federalisation of the country, while 27% supported the outright unification of either Donetsk or all of Ukraine with Russia.
