A knowledgeable Ukrainian source in Stanford, Calif, told WND the “real power in Kiev and much of Western Ukraine today belongs to several rival neo-Nazi factions whose masked, well-armed adherents are busy looting abandoned properties and shaking down businesses for money to support their ‘revolution.’”
“They have already made territorial demands to each of the countries bordering the Ukraine, including the NATO members Poland, Hungary and Romania, and they have declared their intention to acquire nuclear weapons,” the source said.
Other European neo-Nazi parties, such as Jobbik in Hungary and the Golden Dawn in Greece, are “amateurs compared to Ukraine’s Svoboda and Right Sector,” said the source.
The Ukrainian groups use “the same slogans and the same Nazi symbols they used in 1941-1944, when they butchered 200,000-300,000 Poles and Jews, and in 1945-1954, when they butchered in the most gruesome ways imaginable tens of thousands of peaceful Ukrainian citizens whose only crime was to refuse joining their ranks.”

Correct. We have helped neo-Nazi crazies take over part of Ukraine and this will spread.

I wonder if NIKE will design and supply their snappy uniforms?/S
Putin is not a good guy. There are several groups manipulating the situation but that doesn’t make him a good guy.
Pretty much what we did in North Africa.
Entirely different.
Bam bam supported regime change in north africa. bam bam had nothing to do with this one.
World Nut Daily falling for Russian propaganda that all the opposition are neo-nazi’s. It is a ridiculous assertion that only neo-nazi’ oppose the partition of Ukraine or only the neo-nazi’s opposed the corrupt dictator.
Same policies, different continent.
That’s what I heard. Putin has his propaganda machine out in full force to gain support for his takeover of the Ukraine. WND has fallen for it.
Like the good old times, when the Soviets were taking over Eastern Europe, murdering patriots whom they and their Western lackeys called ‘Nazis’! There no no paid lackeys here (that I know of), but we’ve got plenty useful idiots.
There's an uncomfortably warm war happening in Ukraine, with several sides. As in all wars, truth was the first casualty. There's no doubt in my mind that there are some neo Nazis in the Ukraine — just as there are in the USA, Canada, and other European countries. There's also no doubt in my mind that there are some Stalinist Communists in parts of the Ukraine, and Russia (to say nothing about the U.S.A., Canada, etc.) Those kernels of truth were necessary to formulate propaganda for all sides — but, propaganda is to truth as a crack ho is to a virgin bride.
There's a large contingent of the Ukrainian diaspora in Canada; and no country could ask for better citizens. If any are neo-Nazis, they've kept that fact very well hidden indeed.
True. And they maintain very close ties with islamofascists in the Caucasus and the Crimea. I wouldn’t be surprised if I hear these thugs have been fighting for al-Quaeda in Syria and the Arab muzzies are now gladly giving them a helping hand in the Ukraine...
The enemy of my enemy is my enemy...er?
There is a handful of posters here relentlessly peddling the Russian propaganda trying to scare us with some Nazis, 70 years after World War II, and the dissolution of the German NSDAP political party, and 100+ million victims of the Communist Utopia
Yes sometimes they are. The people of the Ukraine are good people. There are many other forces which are not so good.
The Ukraine is important strategically due to its location and natural resources.
Most of the people in Russia are good people also.
Can someone please tell me what specific tenets of the political philosophy of these protesters makes them “neo-nazis”?
Apart from the fact that they oppose Putin (which on the surface is a good thing) I know little about them.
Putin was a Lieutenant Colonel in the KGB. No one should ever forget that.
In order to be an officer in the KGB you needed to be a hard core communist true believer.
