Barack Obama, 2014

FILE - In this Aug. 28, 2014 file photo, President Barack Obama speaks in the James Brady Press Briefing Room of the White House in Washington, before convening a meeting with his national security team on the militant threat in Syria and Iraq. The U.S. and its allies are trying to hammer out a coalition to push back the Islamic State group in Iraq. But any serious attempt to destroy the militants or even seriously degrade their capabilities means targeting their infrastructure in Syria. That, however, is far more complicated. If it launches airstrikes against the group in Syria, the U.S. runs the risk of unintentionally strengthening the hand of President Bashar Assad, whose removal the West has actively sought the past three years. Uprooting the Islamic State, which has seized swaths of territory in both Syria and Iraq, would potentially open the way for the Syrian army to fill the vacuum. (AP Photo/Evan Vucci, File)

Zhukovska, who tweeted “I am dying” after the bullet tore into her on a cold February morning, sometimes wonders just what it all achieved. The 21-year-old hospital orderly from small-town Ukraine moved to Kiev when the protests broke out in late 2013, and spent months working as a volunteer medic in the sprawling protest camp.

Syrische Rebellen in Homs, 2014

This Wednesday, May 7, 2014 photo provided by the anti-government activist group Coordination Committee of Khalidiya Neighborhood in Homs, which has been authenticated based on its contents and other AP reporting, shows Free Syrian Army fighters posing for a group photograph before leaving Homs, Syria. Exhausted and worn out from a year-long siege, hundreds of Syrian rebels on Wednesday left their last remaining bastions in the heart of the central city of Homs under a cease-fire deal with government forces. The exit of some 1,200 fighters and civilians will mark a de facto end of the rebellion in the battered city, which was one of the first places to rise up against President Bashar Assad's rule, earning it the nickname of "capital of the revolution."

But in fact, the protest movement is far from monolithic, uniting pro-Western intelligentsia and wealthy businessmen, white-collar office clerks, student romantics, radical far-right groups, as well as singers, poets and even priests - brought together by their resentment of the government of the now fugitive President Viktor Yanukovych.
