The Guardian has a new feature about the Ukrainian Azov battalion without mentioning the neo-Nazi roots, but thrilled about the members "mutual respect" for each other.

The Azov heroes in the WWII SS Division Galicia no doubt felt the same comaraderie.

Fk off, Vlad. Most of the unit's members are Russian speakers from Russian-speaking regions of Ukraine. Many are Jewish. their past is in the past; they are in fact elite forces, and they are fighting Russian aggression. What have you done for democracy lately?

Word for word I've seen this half a dozen times in a minute or so. They used to be nazis, "leading the white races in a fight against the untermenchen" but you know, they went on a course, covered up those patches that kept embarassing everyone and they are different now...

Disgracreful.
