Some of them committed crimes in 2014, got taken to court and sent to prison.

Next?

Azov are ideologically Nazis. It's not some of them who harbor this ideology, it's all of them who do.

It's people like this that Putin was referring to, when he claimed his invasion was for "de-nazification" of the country

They've been turned into an official military unit and are funded by the Ukrainian govt..

So when is Putin going to acknowledge the war crimes of his troops and apologize for it?

Have you seen the pictures of what the Russians have done in areas they controlled and now the Ukrainian army has taken back. Maybe hundreds of civilians shot down, some tied up and executed while women have been stripped and then shot. Probably after they had been raped. Do not talk to me of war crimes unless you mention that whatever the Ukrainians have done, the Russians have done 100/1000 times worse.

It appears that those in Azov the committed crimes were taken to court. Got anything further?

Token prosecutions - and meanwhile the Azov were incorporated into the country's National Guard -- ie. they were given a promotion.

Given how you people opportunistically screech against QAnon or Proud Boys, the hypocrisy couldn't be more obvious. When the real Nazis show up, then people like you are embracing them with open arms, while running to argue in their defense.

Who are the people in that picture? Can you tell me?


NeoCon-NeoNazi Alliance is a thing.

Zelensky getting into angry argument with Azov soldier who challenges him:




The Azov guys don't respect civilian authority or constitutional authority. They want to do what they want to do. Theirs is an ethnic ideological agenda which they feel gives them ultimate authority, and they don't give a **** about Zelensky, whom they see as a Russian-speaking Jew (which he is).

Notice how the Azov soldier goes out of his way to mention "the protests" -- that's the tactic of the militarist hawks -- anytime Zelensky tried to push for an end to the war of ethnic cleansing against Donbass, the military hawks just mobilize their radical groups into mass street protests threatening to topple the govt, forcing Zelensky to back off.

The depths "conservatives" will go to in order to support Russia seems to have no limits.
