The Azov Battalion - a sensitive issue for Ukraine

Servicemen from the Azov volunteer battalion read a prayer during a ceremony before being sent to eastern Ukraine, in Kiev, Ukraine, Monday, Aug.17, 2015. The battalion's symbol seen on the volunteer's t-shirt, center, is reminiscent of the Nazi Wolfsangel, though the battalion claims it is in fact meant to be the letters N and I crossed over each other, standing for "national idea".(AP Photo/Efrem Lukatsky)

There is no point in walking like a cat around porridge. There are features of the Azov battalion's history and practices that are of concern. But at the time of writing, it is they who have defended Mariupol and thus become heroes in the eyes of the nation.

One does not criticize those who die for the fatherland.

Nevertheless, there are features of the Azov Battalion that should arouse the concern of European politicians with a view to the future. What if Azov, with his wolf song symbol, became an example for similar groups in Western Europe? Today's politicians do not seem to see the danger. They are busy delivering weapons and imposing sanctions.

The Azov Battalion is a militia and militias are by definition not subject to national armies. They can become the armed branch of political parties, or vice versa: Can be an armed political struggle. Here are many historical examples from the interwar period that should warn politicians.

During the Maidan revolution in Kyiv in 2014, a group calling itself the Right Sector was most willing to confront the police. But they already had some elements and symbols that aroused concern.

This report by Gabriel Gatehouse for BBC Newsnight on 1 March 2014 shows how fluid the situation was and who filled the void.

The latter is important: if a political vacuum arises, the powerful will fill it, and something similar can happen in Western Europe.

Putin had taken Crimea and parts of the Donbas. The Azov battalion were volunteers who wanted to fight the Russians. Some young men are attracted to war. The Azov Battalion became a rallying point. When the invasion came, they were ready.

The Azov Battalion has been a PR problem for Kyiv. It is now incorporated into the National Guard, but the problems do not disappear for that reason. The symbol they use is the same as the SS used. It gives unpleasant associations and can not be explained away by the fact that the letters stand for Nation and Idea.

In parts of the EU, it is forbidden to show a Z because it stands for a Russian invasion, but Azov's Wolfsangel has the same effect and actually looks like a slanted Z.

If you do not want to see or record obvious counter-perceptions, you are deep in the propaganda. Most up-and-coming people do not like it. They feel they are being "taken for a ride", led astray.

We understand that the Azov Battalion's efforts in Mariupol make the concerns fade. But they can not disappear.

Document will look at what happened on the Maidan, the US game, the connection between the Democrats and Kyiv, Burisma, and the arms shipments. The war has a prehistory.

The bottom line is for the people to regain their original, moral principles, which have intentionally been watered out over the past generations by our press, TV, and other media owned by the Illuminati/Bilderberger Group, corrupting our morals by making misbehavior acceptable to our society. Only in this way shall we conquer this oncoming wave of evil.
