(ukrainewarblog).

The guy is paranoid and delusional. He goes by a pseudonym. Won't let anyone post a picture of his face on twitter.

Did you see his "work" saying that the civilians killed when bombs stuck a passenger bus were just "actors"? He is a blogger doing war fantasy.

I will take Graham Phillips, who actually puts his life at risk consistently to report, over this guy any day.

Those who are interested can see Graham's rebuttal here (apparently this blogger has stalked him for a while)
