Ukraine- Nazi\u2019s Target American Journalist in Donbass<\/a><\/h3>\n

Preface from Washington\u2019s Blog: \u00a0We are not pro-Russian. \u00a0We think Putin can be an asshole, and we are appalled by Russia\u2019s crackdown on human rights. We are Americans who are pro-truth. And we follow the truth wherever it leads.<\/em><\/p>\n

Journalists are seldom the story and they shouldn\u2019t be. The Ukrainian war is unfortunately changing that. Starting last year in Donbass, the world got a taste of what it\u2019s like when Ukraine\u2019s army actively hunts journalists down. This is\u00a0what happened to Andrei Stenin<\/a>\u00a0among many other Russian journalists.<\/p>\n

If American journalists are publishing in America or worldwide markets are they legitimate targets in a war? Can Ukraine arrest American journalists writing in publications outside of Ukraine in the English language?<\/p>\n

Can\u00a0a private US citizen<\/u>\u00a0use another country\u2019s military or \u201cspy agency\u201d to target anyone including other Americans?<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not hypothetical. It\u2019s happening to me right now.<\/b><\/u><\/p>\n

I have received a lot of communications about what I write concerning the war here. When you consider this one, think about what it means if you live in any country that prides itself on human rights, dignity, and freedoms.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s been fun following you!\u00a0 I hope you\u2019re having fun in Donbas. So sorry NovoRossiya is being dissolved.\u00a0http:\/\/toinformistoinfluence.com\/2014\/10\/12\/novorossiya-fail\/<\/a>
\nI\u2019ve been looking forward to you publishing some more articles. But I\u2019m curious, two months and nothing?\u00a0 Did you change names?
\nI know your bandwidth there is limited, this is probably costing you many Russian rubles.\u00a0 Oh yeah, I hear they don\u2019t take Ukrainian Hryvnia.\u00a0 The good news is that Luhansk and Donetsk will both remain with Ukraine, Russia can\u2019t afford it.
\nBy the time you return to the West, I should be in Kyiv, waiting for you.\u00a0 You have a date with the SBU.\u201d<\/b><\/u><\/b><\/u><\/p>\n
