Journalists Are Asking Ukrainian Soldiers To Hide Their Nazi Patches, NYT Admits
BY TYLER DURDEN TUESDAY, JUN 06, 2023 - 03:30 AM The New York Times has been forced to very, very belatedly deal with something which had long been obvious and known to many independent analysts and media outlets, but which has been carefully shielded from the mainstream masses in the West for obvious reasons.
The surprising Monday Times headline said that "Nazi Symbols on Ukraine’s Front Lines Highlight Thorny Issues of History." This acknowledgement comes after literally years of primarily indy journalists and geopolitical commentators pointing out that yes indeed... Ukraine's military and paramilitary groups, especially those operating in the east since at least 2014, have a serious Nazi ideology problem. This has been exhaustively documented, again, going back years. But the report, which merely tries to downplay it as a "thorny issue" of Ukraine's "unique" "History" - suggests that the real problem for Western PR is fundamentally that it's being displayed so openly. Ukrainian troops are being asked to cover those Nazi symbols please!--as Matt Taibbi sarcastically quipped in commenting on the report.
The authors of the NYT report begin by expressing frustration over the optics of Nazi symbols being displayed so proudly on many Ukrainian soldiers' uniforms. Suggesting that many journalistic photographs which have in some cases been featured in newspapers and media outlets worldwide (typically coupled with generally positive articles on Ukraine's military) are merely 'unfortunate' or misleading, the NYT report says, "In each photograph, Ukrainians in uniform wore patches featuring symbols that were made notorious by Nazi Germany and have since become part of the iconography of far-right hate groups."
The report admits this has led to controversy wherein news rooms actually must delete some photos of Ukrainian soldiers and militants. "The photographs, and their deletions, highlight the Ukrainian military’s complicated relationship with Nazi imagery, a relationship forged under both Soviet and German occupation during World War II," continues the report.
So it's merely "thorny" and "complicated" we are told.
Uh oh, even Tug favorite Serbia sees which way the wind is blowing here
If you understood that NATO is back stirring the pot in Kosovo as the people are mass protesting their government once again you might see that your link is pure propaganda deception
Russians blowing up their stuff? Or is someone else and lying about it? You decide. Just more infrastructure to be rebuilt with 10% to the Big and Little Guy.
Dam in Russia-Occupied Ukraine Blown Up, Flooding Russian Territory; CIA Leaks a New "Theory:" Gee, Maybe the Russians Didn't Blow Up Their Own Pipeline. It Must Have Been the Ukraine All Along. —Ace Biden is going to blow this country up, and the Laptop Class will applaud the millions killed. Less carbon dioxide, you know.
And think about all the Rethuglikkan MAGAts who'll be killed in a US-Russia nuclear exchange!
A dam in occupied Ukraine territory was blown up. Ukraine's president says the Russians blew it up themselves. Russia says the Urkainians did it.
Is there any reason Ukraine would have for blowing it up? Well, their counter-offensive to drive Russia out of occupied parts of Ukraine failed, so they'd have an interest in drowning the region, both to inflict pain on Russia, and impede the movements of Russian troops through Ukraine.
Zero Hedge:
A day after Ukraine's much-heralded counter-offensive appears to have failed, almost before it had even begun, a major dam in the Russian-occupied region of Kherson is suddenly bombed, prompting mass evacuations as floods spread across the region. In fact, Ukraine previously wargamed demolishing the dam:
First the Russians blew up their own pipeline, now they're blowing up their own dams. (Or dams in the regions they control.) Is there no end to their sinister machinations?
Im hearing a few edgy flags and symbols justifies what Russia has done
Nazi's are in Ukraine. Know why? Ukrainians hate the Russians and rightfully so since they killed 8 million Ukrainians and the Nazi's probably treated them better and in fact cheered them when the Germans rolled in and forced the Russians out. So why wouldn't they like being Nazi's? You can look that up.
Russians hate Nazi's since they invaded and killed millions, pillaged and raped their way as they went.

Hope this helps
