There are reports on Twitter about Ukraine building up heavy artillery just outside Donetsk. There are one or two pictures as well. With the other reports of the protesters building up barricades it looks like this 'protest' isn't going to end peacefully.

Artillary for crowd control?
Really? That's a new one.

Renden,
I know you are strong in your beliefs regarding the events in Ukraine. However, after following your posts in numerous ATS threads, I am wondering if you are capable of replying to a poster who disagrees with you without insulting them.
For those of us without a finite opinion regarding these events, it makes your stance seem weak, if you resort to belittling others to make it.
You are passionate, but sometimes proving to be kind is better than proving to be right in terms of effectiveness is debate.
God Bless,

The artillery is for the destruction of the T90 Tanks
when they cross the border from the Motherland.

Not being funny .. but I don't understand what you mean.
Donetsk South Eastern corner of Ukraine.. It's not a stretch for Russian forces
to Invade there.. a quick look on the map shows it's about 150km from Russian border.
Not sure how that would be an unlikely spot for an Invasion force?
Associated Press
PARIS (AP) — NATO's top military commander in Europe, drafting countermoves to the Russian military threat against Ukraine, said Wednesday they could include deployment of American troops to alliance member states in Eastern Europe now feeling at risk.
U.S. Air Force Gen. Philip Breedlove told The Associated Press he wouldn't "write off involvement by any nation, to include the United States."
Foreign ministers of the 28-nation alliance have given Breedlove until Tuesday to propose steps to reassure NATO members nearest Russia that other alliance countries have their back.
"Essentially what we are looking at is a package of land, air and maritime measures that would build assurance for our easternmost allies," Breedlove told the AP. "I'm tasked to deliver this by next week. I fully intend to deliver it early."
Asked again if American soldiers might be sent to NATO's front-line states closest to Russia, the four-star U.S. general said, "I would not write off contributions from any nation."
With Russia-US relations in a thorny patch over events in the country, and a keen use of social media by both sides, such detective work is no longer required. Now, the official communications from each side read more like two teenagers trying to bait each other in the school playground.

Well the second and third video use the same speaker and partly the same footage to underline the message. I would say, they have the same origin.
The style reminds me of a few "conspiracy" videos lingering on youtube, switching between still pictures and moving pictures...
I don't know if they are propaganda or not, nontheless there is footage in them, that wasn't shown in the media coverage.edit on 9/4/2014 by Talliostro because: (no reason given)
