Things are getting curiouser and curiouser as more information comes out about Ryan Wesley Routh, the unhinged Kamala fan who got all too close to assassinating Donald Trump on Sunday. First, he didn't like Trump. At all. Judging by his tweet history, he voted for Trump in 2016, but at some point became disillusioned and, clearly, violent. A truck in the driveway of his home in Hawaii is bedecked with a "Biden-Harris" campaign sticker, so his allegiances had clearly changed. He had turned on Trump way before he set up his sniper's nest near that golf course in Florida. Second,...

On June 27-30, 2024, tributes were paid in many places in Ukraine to the war criminal Roman Shukhevych, murderer of Jews and Poles, the nationalist Ukrainian commander who cooperated with the Nazis during World War II. To provide some historical background, Roman Shukhevych was born in 1907, graduating in 1934 from the Technical University in Lviv (then Lwow, Poland). He lived in Eastern Galicia, a multiethnic region, with a Polish, Jewish, and Ukrainian population, which at that time was a part of the newly reborn Republic of Poland. From the beginning of its foundation in Vienna in 1929, he was...

A State Department spokesman on Monday stated that Ukraine’s infamous Azov Brigade will now be eligible to receive military aid, claiming that Ukraine’s current Azov Brigade is structurally distinct from its past iterations as a National Guard unit formed from a ultranationalist militia with neo-Nazi elements. SNIPThe unit had many ties with various neo-Nazi and ultranationalist groups. Its founder, Andriy Biletsky, had in the past publicly stated that he believed that the “mission” of the Ukrainian nation was to “lead the white races of the world in a final crusade…against Semite-led Untermenschen.”SNIPRussia has responded to the Biden administration’s move by...

The government-funded research project's mysterious removal of Azov’s profile was followed by a State Department decision to allow the controversial right-wing unit to receive U.S. military aid Stanford University’s Mapping Militants Project (MMP), a U.S. Government-funded initiative that conducts research on “violent militant or extremist organizations,” quietly removed their profile on the Azov Battalion early last month. The Azov Battalion (now known as the 12th Special Purpose Brigade “Azov”) is a Ukrainian National Guard unit infamous for its use of neo-Nazi insignia, recruitment of far-right foreign fighters, and alleged war crimes. The Stanford MMP’s mysterious removal of its Azov profile...

The United States has lifted restrictions on providing weapons and training for the high-profile Ukrainian military unit the Azov Brigade. The U.S. State Department confirmed Monday that the unit, which has played a significant role in Ukraine's effort to repel the ongoing invasion launched by Russia in February 2022, could now be trained by U.S. military personnel and use U.S.-provided weapons.

The Azov brigade is still not allowed to receive US assistance, and Zelensky has refused to resolve this issue, said brigade commander Denis Prokopenko. According to him, the team twice tried to submit a petition on the website of the President of Ukraine, but they refused to publish it. The OP referred that this issue does not fall within the competence of Zelensky. The point is that the US itself is prohibiting the supply of American weapons to Azov. “This was a consequence of amendments to US laws, which have been in force since 2017, and block the provision of...

The Ukrainian military has labored, for years, to root out far-right extremists in its ranks. The latest clash between the extremists and the defense ministry in Kyiv couldn’t have come at a worse time—or in a worse place. After weeks of drama, the defense ministry redeployed and shook up the staffing within the army’s 67th Mechanized Brigade this weekend. The brigade was holding the most vulnerable district in the most vulnerable city in eastern Ukraine’s Donetsk Oblast: the canal district of Chasiv Yar. Now the 67th Brigade—what’s left of it—has redeployed to the Ukrainian rear, and a brigade of Ukrainian...

[H/T JonPreston]Excerpted:SNIPThe ‘Azov Debate’Azov Regiment has been a point of heated debate since Russia launched its invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. Critics of the unit point to its ongoing use of Nazi symbols, and evidence of continuing links to Andrey Biletsky, a white supremacist, Azov founder and leader of the far-right National Corps political party. Until Russia launched its invasion, extensive reporting from Western media outlets documented comments from Azov commanders and members who openly endorsed neo-Nazi ideas.Those who defend Azov, including some Western news outlets and opinion writers, claim that since it was integrated into Ukraine’s national guard...

Before Russia invaded Ukraine, these fighters were neo-Nazis. They still are. Vladimir Putin’s February 2022 invasion of Ukraine has already resulted in millions of losers—chief among them the civilians who’ve been tortured, murdered, forced to become refugees, or forced to spend their days worrying about loved ones fighting Russia. But there are also winners: the neofascists whom Putin’s war has turned into heroes. For seven years, Western institutions have warned about Ukraine’s Azov Movement, which began as a neo-Nazi paramilitary group in 2014 and became notorious for its worldwide recruitment of extremists. Then came Russia’s invasion. Within months, Azov fighters...

Troops’ use of patches bearing Nazi emblems risks fueling Russian propaganda and spreading imagery that the West has spent a half-century trying to eliminate. Since Russia began its invasion of Ukraine last year, the Ukrainian government and NATO allies have posted, then quietly deleted, three seemingly innocuous photographs from their social media feeds: a soldier standing in a group, another resting in a trench and an emergency worker posing in front of a truck. In each photograph, Ukrainians in uniform wore patches featuring symbols that were made notorious by Nazi Germany and have since become part of the iconography of...
