   Kiev's chocolate president Poroshenko has bragged about his army   
   having destroyed a Russian military column that had entered Ukraine   
   yesterday.   
      
   Russia's FSB (secret service) has now claimed that 17 army soldiers   
   from Ukraine had crossed into Russia and surrendered.  The soldiers   
   were then given food.   
      
   It's a reverse crossing of sort - but for an opposite purpose.  It was   
   a collective action for peace - providing a studied contrast to the   
   chocolate tycoon's feverishly unrelenting and bloody campaign against   
   his own people.   
      
   So may be Putin and the chocolate king want war for the Ukrainians;   
   but the people who have actually been put before the firing line can   
   choose to say no to the warmongers, can't they?
