#4 Once again: personal attacks on the man. No discussion whatsoever of the overwhelming evidence of Ukrainian Nazis.

DarthVader, the Nazis thought so poorly of the Ukrainians that they organized the Ukrainian 14th Waffen Grenadier Division SS (1st Galician). There is direct video evidence at the link but I suppose Putin time traveled to create that too.

And just in case anyone doubts it, here's the Ukrainian Nazis marching last year, complete with pictures. Boy, Putin controls Breitbart too now? Is there any source that's beyond his tentacles?

#5 If you do not believe me, you too are a Nazi.

BTW, I get all my most accurate news and reporting from the Syrian News Agency.

#8 For Omomolet Phutch9064, from Wikipedia:

Wehrmacht foreign volunteers and conscripts

Among the approximately one million foreign volunteers and conscripts who served in the Wehrmacht and Waffen SS during World War II were ethnic Belgians, Czechs, Dutch, Finns, Danes, French, Hungarians, Norwegians, Poles,[1] Portuguese, Swedes,[2] and British, along with people from the Baltic states and the Balkans.[3] At least 47,000 Spaniards served in the Blue Division.[4]

Some estimates state anywhere between 600,000 and 1,400,000 Soviets (Russians and non-Russians) joined the Wehrmacht forces as Hiwis. (or Hilfswillige)[5] The Ukrainian collaborationist forces were composed of an estimated number of 180,000 volunteers serving with units scattered all over Europe.[6] Russian émigrés and defectors from the Soviet Union formed the Russian Liberation Army or fought as Hilfswillige within German units of the Wehrmacht primarily on the Eastern Front.[7] Non-Russians from the Soviet Union formed the Ostlegionen (literally "Eastern Legions"). The East Battalions comprized a total of 175,000 personnel.[8] These units were all commanded by General Ernst August Köstring. (1876−1953)[9]

Using the lower estimates, some 500,000 Soviets fought for the Nazis against their own country, compared to 180,000 Ukrainians.

The Nazis thought highly enough of all of them to let them be cannon fodder, absorbing bullets meant for the German master race, and used them agains their own people. That is not how you treat soldiers you respect as equals, but fools who will be privileged — those who survive all that went before — to be eradicated last.

#10 I don't think anyone benefits from people using "Nazi!" the same way some people use "Squirrel!"

Desensitizing people to true evil is not a solution to any other depredations that anyone undertakes.

#15 Yes. It's not even "can't both sides lose?" here. It's more like "Can't both sides come to their senses?"

#17 Yes. The left is thrilled about "volunteers" heading to Ukraine to fight. Wasn't that long ago they were vilifying Rittenhouse for "crossing state lines." They need to try to keep their story straight.

#23 But the tanks rolling into the Ukraine while flying the Soviet flag was an innocent jest, right? Not at all a promise of a Holodomor II.

#27 Funny how the country with the most neo-Nazis on record is Russia, yet they aren't cleaning up their own.

#29 the country with most neo-Nazis is Russia Ukraine, according to the Simon Wiesenthal Center

As opposed to this winner of the 2020 "Friends of Zion" award, original commissioned by Shimon Peres and presented in Jerusalem:

Mike Evans has notified the Russian Embassy in Israel of his decision to honor President Putin. In addition he announced that "Friends of Zion Heritage Center will be building a special exhibition honoring Russia for saving a multitude of Jews during World War II. FOZ is also building an exhibition in honor of President Trump for all he has done to support the State of Israel and combat anti-Semitism," said Evans.

#30 Russia claims some of the Azov battalion are Nazis, numbered about 3000. While there about 50,000-70,000 Neo-Nazis in Russia many fighting with Neo-Nazi leader Alexander Petrovich Barkashov against Ukraine.

sorry for original double-post, it was an accident.

#32 All of you hysterics are ignoring the fact that nothing Mr. Ritter says can be trusted as worth listening to, which is the point of the posted article. The man is a liar, a pervert, and a sell-out to the forces of evil.
