And, Ukraine has 150 monuments or streets named after Nazi collaborator Stepan Bandera.

It's just another example that Zeeper hypocrisy is just as great as Democrat or leftist hypocrisy.

You mean that Bandera who spent most of the war under Nazi arrest because he would not cooperate with them? Remember, too, that Stalin himself was a Nazi collaborator in 1939.

Japanese collaborators became the national leaders of multiple countries despite the atrocities visited upon the citizens of the countries they eventually led. As a member of a group (Slavs) Hitler aimed to exterminate, Ukrainian nationalist partisans opposed to Russian rule made a temporary alliance with Hitler, much as Vladimir Jabotinsky pushed for an alliance with Mussolini over British resistance to a Jewish state. In Asia, multiple future national leaders made common cause with Hirohito to throw off European rule.

This kind of accommodation wasn’t some exception. The American Revolution was essentially an English civil war, Americas edition. It was sponsored by France with huge sums, with 3% of GDP, the US defense budget today, the low estimate.

Now, given that England had fought France for centuries, i.e. France was the ancient enemy, Patriot collaboration with France seemed extraordinarily treasonous to the English Crown. But the Brits got over it. As a traitor to the Crown, Washington will never be celebrated in the UK except in his hometown. But they are resigned to his rightful prominence in the country he carved out of Crown lands.

The French did not finance the Revolution out of the goodness of their hearts or any affinity for republican causes. Their goal was to set one English faction against another, much as they had financed both sides of multiple English civil wars for centuries, typically backing challengers against incumbents.

Yep, those Ukes were worse than the German Nazis, and they earned their Borderland status as the Most Corrupt band of Criminals on Earth.
