Just imagine yourself! Members of Hitler NSDAP still siting in Berlin and voting in Bundestag, in any German city stay huge monuments of Hitler and Mainstream Medias cry "Sieg Heil". The same situation is in Ukraine now where one of the biggest Hitler's war criminals is admired and venerated. Shall Ukraine stop to venerate Hitler, Bandera, Main Kampf and NSDAP, ban all nazis from all parliaments. Otherwise it shall lose our support.Please vote.
In difference to Ukraine, except a bunch of octogenarians without political power no-one serious honor Stalin.
Stalin had some virtues -- he played the greatest role of all mortals in winning WWII. As a Jew I am grateful for him in his role in stopping the Holocaust. But the GULAG with 2.7 million prisoners was as cruel as US Justice System since 1990s.
Much worse. Even though, 1.4 million people died in GULAG, at least 11 million people died in Nazi camps. Nazi camps were much worse then even GULAG and modern US SuperMax prisons.
Therefore it is difficult to understand why EU and USA support admirers of Hitler, Holocaust deniers, Main Kampf lovers in Ukraine? Are our politicians crazy? Insane Obama, Merkel, Holland & Co shall be sued for supporting of new hitlers in Ukraine.
I know we rarely agree on anything, but you're right -- given that anyone in any one nation has the right to tell people in any any other nation who or what they should venerate! Frankly, as an American, it ain't none of my business! That said, the Ukrainians had a long, deep history of participation with the Third Reich (the authentic Nazis). Link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/14th_Waffen_Grenadier_Division_of_the_SS_(1st_Galician). Much more recently, the "boys in Kiev", spearheaded by Poroshenko, overthrew their duly-elected president and made him flee for his life. They've persecuted some Ukrainians to the point of burning people to death the Russian minority in the southern precincts of Ukraine. Poroshenko and his buddies in western Ukraine have behaved like a pack of opportunistic, slavish jackals for the EU, the European Central Bank, and the International Monetary Fund. THAT is what the coup in 2014 was REALLY all about... but they'll go no further, unless they want Putin to come in and kill them all.... Now, here is a very hard-to-find image of a very popular Ukrainian Nazi. flag from World War II:
Merkel, Obama, Holland installed a Nazi Regime in Ukraine, much worst as Hitler one in WWII. Porosenko is allowed to perform genocide on Russian citizens, no one care. It is understandable why Russia prepare itself to WWIII and Putin can be kicked out by Russians if he will not fight for Russian interests.
Well, he isn't actually honored. Basically, since 1956. People really quickly grew cold to him, albeit he still is a part of history of USSR and Russia that we have to, well, deal with. History is a history, even the unpleasant parts of it.
The left wing in the US supports these jackasses. They even sanctioned Russia to protect them. If they only knew what they were doing, they would have just stayed out of this crap. Instead, they wanted a cold war with Russia over a country that means nothing to us. And the left wonders why they lost everything possible in 2016/2017
Not nothing, but probably more as 1,000 nukes from Russia within 20 minutes. Dear Americans! I thank you for your support and I have a nice present for you ( s. below )
Should the USA stop honoring the first Democrat President, the mass-murderer who defied the US Supreme court to do it, Andrew Jackson?
