It looks like a fair and honest summary.


Actually, I have sources for hundreds of photographs that would show everything. Those sources are foreign aid workers AND Ukrainian aid workers. They remain afraid to release the photos. I've analyzed what they have to be afriad of now, according to them, and there really isn't anything there, not now. It's all in their mind. Someone said "Boo!" and frightened them, in which case their efforts aren't going to amount to very much. People that timid aren't going to be able to get much done, although they are very sincere and have the best of intentions.


For example, one organization seeks to start public education training at university level, to teach Ukrainian students basic intervention and medical techniques that are very simple in practice and have proved to improve children's lives dramatically. They proved the point by applying those techniques in one of the death camps. Ukrainian staff was astonished. Children showed marked improvement within days.


But the logic of their efforts escapes me. They want public education programs to assist secret locations where very few people can enter or even find -- and they're not willing to reveal or help reveal those locations. To me, they might as well be teaching defense techniques against Martians -- just in case Martians happen to appear in reality. So, Martian defense techniques taught in Ukrainian universities. Intervention techniques being taught in Ukrainian universities for -- what? Invisible death camps.


It's the whole notion of trying to do something publicly while maintaining secrecy that seems utterly absurd. But, from talking to them, I understand that they haven't come to recognize that conflict in their thinking, at least not yet. But they do know that children continue to suffer terribly and die horrible deaths.


Known death camps exist in eastern and western Ukraine. I believe at this point that the ONLY reason they're still being kept secret is absolutely nothing more than force of habit and attitudes carried over from pre-revolution days. Plenty of corruption still exists, but now there is clear impetus in reducing and ridding corruption. For one thing, there is now freedom of media, and no politician or official would likely dare risk coming down on the wrong side of the death camps issue. What politician or official would risk public exposure of being in favor of killing Ukraine's children?


Without such officials being able to control death camps for their own nefarious purposes -- which is exactly what happened before, and I have complete information on this that I'm trying to get a researcher to give permission to release -- there is no one else and no other mechanism to further obstruct helping and saving these children.
