Expert: We are selling more defensive missiles to NATO allies for Ukraine, but our own stockpiles are taking a back seat. Is this why no Iran attack?

          yay a whole pile of links. got to work so can’t read all these now.

          re neo nazis existing in Ukraine, I don’t doubt it. But also there are neo nazis in russia, the US, germany, just about anywhere.

            The difference is that nazis in Ukraine are literally the ruling party in the government and in control of the military with elite openly fascist battalions like Azov. Last I checked this isn’t the case in Russia, but certainly is becoming openly the case in the US. Hence I guess why western fascists feel such deep kinship with the Ukrainian ones. Y’all have shared values.

        Most communists support the secessionists in Donetsk and Luhansk, that have been fighting the Banderite regime in Kiev since 2014, when their democratically elected president was ousted in a western-backed, far-right coup. The Russian Federation is aiding the secessionists, and destroying NATO equipment and resources that otherwise are used to threaten the global south into bending the knee to western imperialism.
