US neo-Nazi group with Russia-based leader calls for targeted Ukraine attacks

Source: The Guardian

A US neo-Nazi terrorist group with a Russia-based leader is calling for targeted assassinations and attacks on the critical infrastructure of Ukraine in an effort to destabilize the country as it carries out ceasefire negotiations with the Kremlin.

The Base, which has a web of cells all over the world, was founded in 2018 and became the subject of a relentless FBI counter-terrorism investigation that led to several arrests and world governments officially designating it as a terrorist organization.

Now, with the Trump administration pulling the FBI from pursuing the far right, the Base, left unchecked, is trying to export its violence abroad.

This is the first time the Base has openly allied itself with the Kremlin’s broader geopolitical goals, a sudden change experts say signals its likely involvement in Russian sabotage and propaganda operations now being carried out across Europe.

...led by a Jewish president. Every accusation from the authoritarian right is always an admission.

and deport them to russia. Let putin deal with them as he will, and we'll see what country they really want to emulate in their ideology! If there are too many to do it all at once, send some to russia, some to somalia, some to iraq, iran, and afghanistan. I'm not picky. I just want them all... including trump and his entire administration and every gop in congress to live in a country that already is what they're molding the U.S. to be.
