@ Yrral
It never ceases to amaze the seemingly pleasure you derive from seeing innocents being killed.
And to have the audacity to accuse Ukraine of being corrupt while supporting Russia is breathtaking.
You will notice (or maybe not) there are no errors of grammar in this post.

Garthgoyle @ 9.47pm
Well they sure need some doctors there. Have ever had the unfortunate experience of visiting a Chinese hospital? Get there at the crack of dawn, take a number and wait in the queue.
They don't believe in GP's, thus their health system is a shambles.
