Russia-Ukraine War

[WuDrWu]

There is a large group on right wing national socialists in Ukraine for sure. It is unclear to me as to what degree they are racists.

Yes. and if you don't think there are a large amount of racists (white supremacists whatever) in Russia, then you don't know your wodka and I have several bridges in eastern Ukraine that I would like to sell you at a discount.

[Shockm]

Sure u are. By pushing the false narrative, u are indeed supporting Putin comrade Cold.

Clod pushing a false narrative? Never (actually I mean Always)

[SB Shock]

Nobody is supporting Pootin' bro.

[C0|dB|00ded]

Yeah, WTF - you really going to push Putin narrative and say this is about "NAZI" - which is not actually the NAZI you are thinking about (I mean Zelensky is Jewish). Go ahead Comrade Cold.

Nobody is supporting Pootin' bro. Just pointing out that there was a fairly large contingent of neo-Nazi's in the country to the point that they were militarized and gaining power in the government. I thought it was just the ramblings of a madman. I had no idea they actually do have a problem. Clearly not a reason to invade and slaughter the citizenry lol.

[Kung Wu]

Whoa. Turns out the majority of neo-nazis in the Ukraine are RUSSIAN:

You are going to find right wing nationalists in many countries. Ukraine no exception. In WWII Ukrainian factions were fighting both the Germans and the Russians. The reality was that both the Germans and Russians needed to be fought. Hitler vs Stalin, which side do you choose?

Commentary: Ukraine’s neo-Nazi problem (3/19/18)

As Ukraine’s struggle against Russia and its proxies continues, Kiev must also contend with a growing problem behind the front lines: far-right vigilantes who are willing to use intimidation and even violence to advance their agendas, and who often do so with the tacit approval of law enforcement agencies.

A January 28 demonstration, in Kiev, by 600 members of the so-called “National Militia,” a newly-formed ultranationalist group that vows “to use force to establish order,” illustrates this threat. While the group’s Kiev launch was peaceful, National Militia members in balaclavas stormed a city council meeting in the central Ukrainian town of Cherkasy the following day, skirmishing with deputies and forcing them to pass a new budget.

Many of the National Militia's members come from the Azov movement, one of the 30-odd privately-funded “volunteer battalions” that, in the early days of the war, helped the regular army to defend Ukrainian territory against Russia's separatist proxies. Although Azov uses Nazi-era symbolism and recruits neo-Nazis into its ranks, a recent article in Foreign Affairs downplayed any risks the group might pose, pointing out that, like other volunteer militias, Azov has been “reined in” through its integration into Ukraine’s armed forces. While it’s true that private militias no longer rule the battlefront, it’s the home front that Kiev needs to worry about now.

Five years after the Maidan uprising, anti-Semitism and fascist-inflected ultranationalism are rampant.

Absolutely chilling article from 2019.
Was anybody aware that Pootin' was actually telling the truth about a Nazi movement growing in Ukraine?

[N Crestway]

Bucha now presenting evidence of systematic killing over a period of weeks. One Bucha resident stated that where he lived the Russians were focused on all males under the age of 50.

[pinstripers]

The horrible stories coming from the Ukraine are no surprise, rapes, wanton murder, destruction for destruction's sake. terrible. Very similar to the Japs in Manilla during WWII, or or the Russians marching to Berlin from the East, same time period.

[C0|dB|00ded]

Hillary believes preventing Putin from attending the G-20 conference will be an effective sanction. Arresting Putin at the G-20 conference might be effective. however.

If Pootin' goes to the G-20, everybody else (besides China) better pack up and go home or I will have lost all faith in humanity.

Have any of you looked at the AP daily photographs from Ukraine, they are devastating. I don't think we should depend on government aid alone.

One today showed a 57 year old woman on her knees in the rubble, with a burned-out tank behind her, crying over the loss of her husband. A second of a 6 year old standing next to th crude grave of his mother in what looked like the yard to their home. She had died of starvation.
