| Direct Translation via Google Translate [RIA Novosti] In 37 regions of Russia, 106 neo-Nazis from the Ukrainian "MKU", which was preparing terrorist attacks and massacres, were immediately identified, the FSB reported. This is the largest operation against supporters of an extremist group in Russia. "Operational-search measures and investigative actions have been carried out in relation to 106 supporters of the Ukrainian neo-Nazi youth group MKU, created by the citizen of Ukraine Krasnov Yegor, operating under the auspices of the Ukrainian special services, identified in 37 regions of the Russian Federation," the release says. The Investigative Committee has been following Krasnov's activities for a long time, a criminal case was opened against him on the preparation of murders, and his announcement on the international wanted list was also initiated. The aim of the current events was to suppress the action, inspired by Krasnov in various regions of Russia, "within the framework of which, with the help of messengers and social networks, his supporters were informed of instructions about the commission of terrorist attacks and massacres." "Among the detained supporters of MKU, three administrators of the organization's Internet communities have been identified who propagandized extremist ideology at the direction of Yegor Krasnov and called for violent actions. Two more detainees are suspected of preparing armed attacks on educational institutions," in the message. FSB detained in Saratov 14 members of the Ukrainian radical group "M.K.U." In addition, in the Penza region and the Komi Republic, the activities of two affiliated with "M.K.U." extremist groups, which consisted of five and eight people. It was not specified whether all of them were detained or only part of them. At home, members of the organization found smooth-bore and rifled civilian hunting weapons and ammunition, pneumatic and hollow pistols, machine guns, a large number of knives, and tear gas canisters. Among those detained in these two regions are those who corresponded with Krasnov and received instructions from him to carry out violent actions and make improvised explosive devices. Now the issue of bringing the detainees to criminal responsibility is being resolved. Investigative Committee has disclosed details of the case of the Ukrainian neo-Nazi group "M.K.U." For the first time about the detention of supporters of "M.K.U." in Russia, the Federal Security Service reported in March this year: 13 neo-Nazis were arrested in Gelendzhik, another in Yaroslavl. After that, the special service repeatedly reported on special operations in other cities - from the center (Moscow region) and the south (Anapa) to the Far East (Chita). As one of the neo-Nazis detained in Gelendzhik said in a video published by the FSB, they received instructions from Krasnov on the preparation of terrorist attacks and practiced their skills by beating homeless people and representatives of youth subcultures. As a "demonstration of adherence to Nazi ideology," the group members burned a copy of the Victory Banner, and the video report was sent to Ukraine. The FSB gave a similar description when detaining other groups of MKU supporters. At least one of the adherents of the group, at the instigation of Krasnov, committed two murders, noted in the UK. |

| #5 What I do know is the Russians are responsible for the idea that everyone not an active communist is a "Nazi", so I don't trust the labels assigned by their government press. Maybe Putin should keep his thugs inside Russia? |

| #4 Kurt's been to Ukraine to train their soldiers. Kurt gets it: Tell the Establishment, “No intervention in Ukraine.” This is their country and their fight. That’s just how it is. "...We are led by a feeble incompetent who is advised by fools. Our military is broken and has not won a full-spectrum, high-intensity conventional war in decades. "And the American people are sick of seeing the lives of their sons and daughters – our amazing warriors – squandered in ill-considered conflicts that our garbage establishment has neither the competence nor, apparently, the intention of winning. "My test for whether any conflict is worth it is whether I could explain to the mother of a paratrooper from Omaha who just found out her son was killed in action why it was worthwhile. The proud mothers of the boys from the 82nd and 101st killed at Normandy understood. But I could not make that case to them over Ukraine...." |
