That was the claim that caused the market to sell off. http://www.cnbc.com/id/101906428?trknav=homestack:topnews:1
But is it credible? I have not seen any pictures. I am hesitant to call BS on it without proof either way, but it strikes me as madness for Ukraine to attack Russian forces. In addition, I have grave doubts the Russians would allow an armored column to be destroyed without doing something about it.
I have to wonder if there isnpt possibly some sort of conspiracy between some fund managers and corrupt Ukraine pols. Start a bogus story on a sleepy August friday to spook the markets.
Meanwhile Russia is sending a humanitarian convoy into Ukraine, which puts the UN in an awkward spot. Clearly there is desperate need in these areas, as Ukraine is trying to starve them into submission. But allowing a Russian presence also legitimizes Russia's involvement and creates a hazard that any miscalculation by Ukraine could create an incident justifying Russian military involvement.
Lucky for us we have a steady hand at the tiller with Obama and the much respected John Kerry.
