Don't Shoot


Writing about the Euronews dubbed "Carnation Revolution" and seeing the video of Timoshenko made me think of the above flier. On Monday night this was being pasted to just about any surface that would take it (including people). It says, in Ukrainian, "Don't Shoot!" If stories like this one are to be believed, maybe it's having an effect. I hope it is.

In any case, it's making me realize that coordination between opposition leadership and the people on the ground is quite coordinated. Some of this is obviously happening spontainiously, a lot of it (see the row of identical tents and the above flier) obviously isn't. Posted by Hello
