The Kerch Incident is hardly worth the time to sort out because in reality, it was a border crossing incident that no country other than Ukraine should give a damn about. And even giving Ukraine every consideration, when you are left with the facts, Ukraine makes supporters look foolish once again.
The only real news about the Kerch Strait story is how this narrative and other stories are developed.
For the last four years, there has been a massive uptick in how much information and Intelligence from politically deviant sources like RUH8's Bellingcat are tainting the President's PDB, NATO Intel, EU Parliament, and US Congressional inquiries.
Ukraine is using innocuous and non-threatening personas like RUH8 associates Eliot Higgins and Aric Toler to give a benevolent look for information developed to maximize the nationalists advantage. Behind RUH8, Eliot Higgins, Toler, or Aaron Weisburd are people who provide logistics for surly headchoppers in IGIL and Ukraine's neo-nationalist groups like Azov battalion and Pravy Sektor.
It's high time for the world's developed countries to stop dancing to Ukraine's beat and look to their own Intel apparatus for answers. The only difference between Ukraine and their head-chopping murderer associates in ISIS is the Ukrainian nationalists completed their coup in 2014.
What did it bring the world? Is Ukraine better off? The people are suffering under Poroshenko more than they have under the entire 27-year history of Independence.
Donald Trump, Russia, and European leaders have to get together and agree the path to reconciliation for Ukraine to be at peace isn't listening to Bellingcat Neo-Nazis or people who get their information from them.
