About the essence of the Ukrainian revolution.

We have to understand that this is not a conflict between Yanukovych’s supporters and his opponents. It’s much deeper. It is a revolt against the system of police bandits – with stripes, and without them.
For 22 years, power in the country belonged to them, the prosecutors, the judges and police thugs. This is a system where cadres circulate in closed routes, and the world view of each cadre is unified.

When the first Molotovs flew on Hrushevskoho Street, the cops felt anxiety. It was a sign, a very unpleasant one – that they are no longer feared. They, the ruthless Berkut, were no longer feared! The thugs in uniform for the first time felt that the world of their power had begun to shatter. And Yanukovych is almost irrelevant here. The conflict between Yanukovych and the citizens–is just one layer of the conflict between citizens and police thugs. A small part of a large battle.

Therefore, everything that happened on Hrushevskoho, was met with a sharp reaction. Immediately there were persons who, although in agreement with the authorities, but also on his own volition, decided to undertake that which would terrorize rebellious crowds, beat his revolutionary spirit with waves of fear. They started doing those things that actually have always done, but that people in hypnosis in his daily life could not understand-and by virtue of the nepirodnostì monstrosity of these things. They began to kidnap and torture people, to deliver them into the hands of the mother machine of “justice.” They expect people will feel fear.

The right to brutality, the right to violence – they quite sincerely believe in their natural and exclusive right. Ask any judge–and he will explain that, without arbitrary and brutal police society isn’t possible.

Now, in us – All-Ukrainian Council, they are well aware and are willing to go all-out to quell the uprising. They are to a large extent independent of Yanukovych in their self-interest.

The worst part is that none of the political leaders of today are a convincing enough embodiment of what the  protesting masses want. One would be hard pressed to find among the Trinity, or among the second-tier, it’s useless looking for a real “anti-police”, who would have a credible plan of reforms for the judicial and the police system, and the unrelenting energy to realize it.

There is no political conflict. There are only cops together with the bandits, against the people.
