Meet Obama's New Ukrainian Friends

On February 27, 2014, they announced their so-called "Ukrainian government of people's trust." It includes a rogue's gallery of societal misfits. Many are militant fascists. They're thugs. They're criminals. They're illegitimate putschists. They're xenophobic, hate-mongering, ultranationalist anti-Semites. Combined they represent mob rule. They make mafia bosses look saintly by comparison. They vowed to fight. They urge NATO intervention. They threaten world peace.

For the first time since WW II, overt fascists have real power. They hold major government posts.

In December 2012, European parliamentarians expressed concern about "rising nationalistic sentiment in Ukraine, expressed in support for the Svoboda party, which, as a result, is one of the two new parties to enter" Ukraine's parliament. Their "racist, anti-Semitic, and xenophobic views go against the EU's fundamental values," they said. Europe's parliament "appeal(ed) to pro-democratic parties in (Ukraine's legislature) not to associate with, endorse, or form coalitions with" these elements.

All is forgiven. EU officials look the other way. They turn a blind eye. They embrace what they denounced months earlier. They march in lockstep with Washington hardliners. They mock democratic values they claim to support.
