US snipers allowed to kill Ukrainians during Bush’s visit

Throughout the last week the members of the Ukraine Ministry of Home Affairs and the Special Forces have been checking public organizations and parties. Their aim was to prevent them from participating in protest actions against the arrival of the US president in Kiev.

Starting form the Crimea and the South-East of the Ukraine, such “information war” with the opposition has spread to Kiev. During the last days all heads of the parties that have at least once taken part in public meetings, protests and marches have been invited for a serious talk with the authorities. Some representatives of such parties that have already been talked to say they were forced not to participate in any protest actions and not to appear anywhere close to the places where the US president might be.

The information that Bush will be guarded by the special branch of American snipers has recently leaked into the Ukrainian media. In case this information is true, any American officer, if concerned that Bush might be endangered, will be allowed to shoot any Ukrainian person that will show his protest to the US President. The question is what sovereignty of the Ukraine we are talking about if the US forces act in the way they behave in the Ukraine only in conquered Iraq, segodnia.ru reports.

3. I just couldn't believe that the Govt. there would even consider this...
So the US snipers can just shoot the citizens of Kiev at random... What the F*** is wrong with that Govt.?

11. One reason this couldn't be true is that you couldn't get US troops to be quiet about this
Someone would talk; someone would break down and confess to this sort of crime. Certainly proud Ukrainians wouldn't allow their own people to be gunned down for Yankee amusement.

10. This is all over the 'internets', including Yahoo, but seems like most stories are based on the
Pravda account.

7. How could the Bush administration respect any country's sovereignty when they can't even define it.
