I am reporting the underlying story -- that thousands of Russian
soldiers have invaded Ukraine and joined with anti-government
Ukrainian militias to annex additional Ukrainian territory, having
already invaded and annexed Crimea.
I've also reported another part of the underlying story -- that there
are hundreds of Russian trolls paid by the Kremlin to lie on blogs and
social media.

Given the choice of believing the BBC, al-Jazeera, CNN and numerous
other media sources, versus believing you, then I choose to believe
them.
The Crimea vote was not "legitimate." It was a fraudulent election
controlled by Russian army forces, in the same way that Russian
elections are always controlled by "security forces" and are
always fraudulent.
The Russian militia leader bragged about shooting down the
passenger jet, before he realized it wasn't a warplane.
Claiming that the thousands of Russian soldiers are "volunteers" is a
particularly pathetic excuse, with no chance of being true. But even
if it were true, it would make no difference. Thousands of Russian
soldiers, whether "volunteering" or under orders, are invading Ukraine
and planning to annex large sections of Ukrainian territory in the
same way that they annexed Crimea.
And the only way that the USA is "threatening" WW III is that the
administration has repudiated the Truman doctrine for the first time
since the end of WW II, and is sitting on its hands.
