Oleksandr “Bear” Kravtsov with an Adolf Hitler tattoo on his arm, and the “Vedmedi SS” posing with their flag in 2021, which has the Nazi SS slogan, “My honor means loyalty.” Circled left to right: a swastika necklace, a totenkopf tattoo on Kravtsov’s left hand, a Nazi-style eagle on the back of his neck, and more Nazi tattoos on his torso (14, 88, Celtic Cross).

Only Wars appears to have grown out of the Azov Regiment in the Special Operations Forces that formed the basis of the 3rd Separate Assault Brigade. This Azov brigade in the Ukrainian army, more overtly neo-Nazi than its counterpart in the National Guard, has overlapping leadership with the political wing and “street branch” of the Azov movement.
A prime example is Dmytro Kukharchuk, a battalion commander and leader of the National Corps political party, who wears an Only Wars patch on his combat vest, and has developed close ties to a charity in Chicago.

Ah yes, putin wants to keep NATO from expanding so he…checks notes
Launches a full scale invasion of a soverign country, devastates cities and infrastructure, triggers massive support and involvement from NATO to include the US of motherfucking A, and directly causes two more countries to join NATO. Brilliant. 300 IQ play. Incredible. I could hardly hope to kiss the ground he walks on to hopefully get a taste of his boots, which must be spotless thanks to people like you.
Oh I almost forgot the 3 day special military operation that was actually a cover for bringing trench warfare back into vogue. Truly a visionary.
Russia launched a limited operation aimed at bringing the Kiev regime back to the negotiating table; it was Ukraine and its western backers who turned it into full scale war when they backed out of the negotiations in Istanbul thinking they could inflict a strategic defeat on Russia
Ukraine lost its sovereignty in 2014 when the US orchestrated a coup that brought a puppet regime to power that proceeded to do the West’s bidding devastating Ukraine with neoliberal policies and launching a war on its own people
tell the Ukronazis to stop hiding their military in cities - it is a war crime to use civilians as human shields; also… fuck around and find out! they bombed the Donbass republics for eight years…what goes around comes around
NATO was already involved in Ukraine, pumping it full of weapons and training its army since 2015; all this is doing is depleting the arsenals of NATO
two militarily insignificant countries that were already co-operating on every level with NATO; they had abandoned their neutrality a long time ago; a poor consolation prize for the US for losing the proxy war they provoked in Ukraine
I can see that reading is not your strong suit, so here’s a clue:
So then, how can NATO include Ukraine—further breaking its promise not to expand—when there are people’s republics within Ukraine preventing membership? And how easily can the Ukrainian government liquidate those republics when the Russian Federation is protecting them? Hmm?
Now, it would be easy for me to sink myself down to your level, but since this is an educational subcommunity I am going to try something different: did you know that Adolf Heusinger, a former Axis official, served as the Chairman of NATO’s Permanent Military Committee for 1,061 days? Because that is the exact same amount of time that you are going to spend banned here. Have a glass of lemonade and enjoy.
