Nazi “Defenders of Ukraine:” Sadistic Murderers, Torturers and Rapists
Stephen Lendman
Armed, funded, trained and directed by the Pentagon and CIA, Azov and likeminded Nazified Ukrainian thugs are US proxies for war on Russia.
According to NYT fake news, they’re “fight(ing) Russia as a fight against communism, clinging to World War II historical narratives, and associating modern-day Russia and Vladimir Putin with the former Soviet Union (sic),” adding:
“Putin (calls) Ukraine a fascist country…false(ly) claim(ing) to be waging war against Nazis (sic).”
“Ukraine has a democratically elected government (sic).”
And this Times fake news:
Russia “falsely label(led) (Azov thugs) as terrorists (sic).”
Putin “fictitiously portray(ed) (Russia’s SMO) as a battle to rid Ukraine of Nazis (sic).”
What puppet Zelensky called “our boys,” the Times and other MSM consider Nazified Azov thugs as “defenders of Ukraine.”
According to WaPo fake news, Azov elements are “part of Ukraine’s national guard.”
They “defended (Mariupol’s) steel plant for weeks (sic).”
Falsely calling them “heroes (sic),”WaPo further turned reality on its head by claiming that “they gave up their lives for this city, for the country, for the people of Ukraine (sic).”
According to WSJ rubbish, “Azov dealt (a) heavy blow to Putin’s ego and…show(ing) Ukraine that (its military) can overcome the overwhelming forces of the enemy (sic),” adding:
Labelling Azov neo-Nazis “is like calling all Americans racist because the KKK exists in the US (sic).”
According to neocon West Point professor of reinvented history Fred Kagan, Azov thugs are “determined defenders (sic).”
They “pinned down Russian forces and prevented from advancing elsewhere in Ukraine and Donbass (sic).”
And this Journal rubbish:
“Against overwhelming firepower, fighters from the nationalist Azov battalion held out in the Azovstal steel plant for weeks, even as the Russian military destroyed much of the city around them (sic).”
They’re “portrayed…in Russian propaganda (sic)…as a neo-Nazi group.”
Now in Russian custody as POWs after unconditionally surrendering, they earlier “vow(ed) to fight until the end,” the Journal hyperventilated.
Here’s how victims of their viciousness explained how they operate:
Medical records of Mariupol resident Tatiana Ganja explained the following:
“They hung me by my legs, hit me on the head, torso, limbs, made me regain consciousness with water, and shot me near my left ear.”
Before hosting her painfully this way, they beat her with guns, then urinated on her.
They kicked her, fired a volley of shots over her head, then took her to what victims called Mariupol’s airport “library” where victims were brutally tortured.
Until liberated by Russian forces, it was a secret Azov torture prison.
Ganja called the prison a “real hell and place of death,” adding:
“I cannot describe all the horrors.”
“The bridge of my nose is broken and (she’s deaf in her) left ear.”
“I won’t recount everything…(A Ukrainian soldier) took (her) to the toilet and told me that ‘two days before, a girl (was) beaten to death’ ” there.
Azov thugs took everything from her family’s home.
Journalist Elena Blokha was tortured in Azov’s “library.”
She was “in a room 3 x 1.5 meters (with) one chair.”
She and her son were detained and “badly beaten.”
She witnessed other Azov victims with “broken ribs sticking out.”
Another victim’s “legs were broken.”
After the Obama/Biden regime’s 2014 coup, Azov became infamous for committing atrocities against civilians and Donbass freedom fighters.
Falsely called “patriots of Ukraine (sic),” they’re sadistic murderers, torturers, and rapists
They’re Western darlings for use as proxy fighters against Donbass civilians and Russian forces.
Azov’s first commander, Andrey Biletsky, once said that Kiev’s mission is to “lead the white races of the world in a final crusade… against Semite-led untermenschen”— subhumans to be exterminated or enslaved.
Before heading the group, he was imprisoned on charges of assault.
His victim suffered brain damage and multiple stab wounds for publicly opposing fascism.
He also said the following:
“Our credo is to destroy everything that destroys our people.”
“As you know, you can restore everything – economy, order in the streets, demography, strong army and navy, nuclear weapons – but the only thing that you cannot restore is blood purity.”
“The backbone of Azov is made up of people who have been involved in ‘vyshkols’ (training camps) all their lives.”
We’re “preparing for war.”
Openly displaying Waffen-SS, Wehrmacht and other Nazi symbols, they recruited likeminded extremists to join their ranks.
Convicted neo-Nazi extremist involved in numerous ethnic murders, Alexei Levkin, once said the following:
“Adolf Hitler is the Great Leader who engaged in an unequal fight for our White World.”
“He is the Great Symbol of Our Struggle.”
Azov is comprised of other extremists like themselves.
Western darlings, puppet Zelensky earlier expressed gratitude to what he called Azov “volunteers from different parts of the state united to defend Ukraine (sic),” adding:
“There is also the Azov battalion, which does not consist of volunteers, but is part of the national guard of our state.”
“Today it is part of the armed forces, and all of them are the official army of our state.”
“Some of those who were volunteers at the beginning of the war moved into politics and stayed there.”
“Those who decided to continue serving in the armed forces of Ukraine became military and are part of the armed forces of Ukraine.”
Calling them “heroes” of Ukraine, he praised their “professionalism” while defying reality by falsely claiming that there’s “almost (no) radicalism” in the country.
There’s no ambiguity about crimes of war, against humanity and horrendous atrocities committed by Azov and likeminded extremists.
Calling them heroic “defenders of Ukraine” whitewashes the worst of their high crimes.
For those in Russian custody, payback time lies ahead.
A Final Comment
Weeks earlier, Russia’s Defense Ministry minced no words, saying the following:
“Azov battalion Nazis (bear full responsibility for) exterminating civilian(s) in Donetsk and Lugansk, deliberately and with exceptional cruelty, for eight years.”
Falsely labelled “defenders of Ukraine” are sadistic thugs of the worst kind.
No punishment is severe enough as payback for their reign of terror against opponents of fascist tyranny.
