A Ukrainian Neo-Nazi soldier visited the Auschwitz death camp wearing a shirt quoting Hitler in order to mock the camp’s victims. This is the type of truly fascist scum that billions and billions of US taxpayer dollars are going to fund and arm.

      Are Jews being exterminated in Ukraine?

      so-far

      Also weapons are not sent directly to battalions (incl. Nazi ones) AFAIK, they are sent to the general command who distributes them.

      It’s been confirmed (by Western news sources) that many of the weapons sent to Ukraine aren’t accounted for at all, so there’s no way to know where exactly they end up.

      I also have to dispute your point that they’re not being sent directly to battalions, since the US recently lifted the ban on supplying the Azov Battalion.

              ukrainian nazis were allowed to try to ethnically cleanse eastern ukraine. the state was unable or unwilling to rein them in. the same state passed laws attempting to marginalize the native language of millions of ukrainians.

              ukrainian nazis were very much in a position to carry out an extermination before the war. i suppose it wasnt going well enough for you to consider it a proper extermination attempt or something.

          which I think implies it’s currently happening.

          It really doesn’t. If I say ”I’m going to buy some groceries to make dinner”, there’s no implication that I’m going to start making dinner immediately.

      Ukrainian Nazis seem more focused on ethnic Russians and Roma than Jews (at the moment) probably because they’re allied with the West and being too blatantly anti-Semitic could cost them NATO bucks. There’s been plenty of reporting on their attacks against Russians and Roma though.
