ACTION ALERT: NYT Has Found New Neo-Nazi Troops to Lionize in Ukraine
fair.org
The New York Times has found another neo-Nazi militia to fawn over in Ukraine. The Bratstvo battalion “gave access to the New York Times to report on two recent riverine operations,” which culminated in a piece (11/21/22) headlined “On the River at Night, Ambushing Russians.” Since the US-backed Maidan coup in 2014, establishment media...

Bratstvo was founded as a political organization in 2004 by Dmytro Korchynsky, who previously led the far-right Ukrainian National Assembly–Ukrainian People’s Self-Defense (UNA-UNSO).

Korchynsky, who now fights in Bratstvo’s paramilitary wing, is a [Shoah] denier who falsely blamed Jews for the 1932–33 famine in Ukraine, and peddled the claim that “120,000 Jews fought in the Wehrmacht.” He has stated that he sees Bratstvo as a “Christian Taliban” (Intercept, 3/18/15).

(Emphasis original. See here for further examples of the NYT’s casual profascism. Depending on your criteria for Jewishness, the claim that 120,000 Jews served in the Wehrmacht is not necessarily a lie, but it was not something that the Third Reich sometimes tolerated out of good will either.)

    Every time someone in Poland speaks publicly against Ukraine media hysteria, it is always either a libertarian or other fascist (we do have some communists but they are unhearable, even trots and anarchists fell way beyond the margin of media tolerance).
