It seems even the BBC is starting to have to admit uncomfortable truths about the groups it has been cheer leading for all year.

Read it all but here are the highlights

It is still unclear how any of these parties, or the over-sized egos that run them, will behave once in parliament. Moreover, many of the new faces are completely unknown quantities - such as the numerous paramilitary commanders on various parties' tickets, or Andrei Biletsky, a white supremacist commander running for Arseniy Yatseniuk's People's Front.......

Whoah....!!!!! what was that little bombshell tucked down there at the end.

Arseniy Yatseniuk,; the man personally appointed by Victoria Nuland to lead Ukraine on behalf of her country, has a White Supremacist running mate!! when did they learn this?

Another story on the same day.

and another little bombshell tucked away the end

On St Sofia's Square I find the commander of the Azov Battalion, Andriy Biletsky, is addressing his soldiers before they head off to the east.

Mr Biletsky, too, is running for parliament and he is a controversial candidate. Many of the battalion's volunteers are viewed as ultranationalists. Among the symbols on their banners and uniforms is a sign resembling the Wolf's Hook used by the Nazis.

"We're nationalists, we've never hidden that," Mr Biletsky tells me. "Our whole ideology is in our symbol. It's a combination of the letters I and N. It means 'idea of the nation'."

Azov is not the political mainstream in Ukraine but political upheaval and especially the war in the east have given the far-right a new prominence and confidence.

The Azov soldiers file on to a bus. Just as it is about to drive off, two young women make far-right salutes to the volunteers on board. Through the bus windows, I can see some of the soldiers responding in kind.

"What was that sign you were making with your arm?" I ask one of the women.

"From the heart to the sun," she replies. "It means 'bye'."

Clearly the time for mealy mouthed utterances about Nationalist is over! These guys in Ukraine are clearly far more.
These are undisputedly, unreformed Neo Nazis, White Supremacists, straight out of the worst ideology of the Third Reich.

Never mind whether or not they will be able to generate significant electoral success. The people in power in Kiev have enabled and armed these groups and are responsible for their actions. As indeed are those supporters from abroad that encourage them and turn a blind eye to their activities.

The deliberate arming of these groups and sending them into the East "to pacify" the ethnic Russian is as irresponsible and reprehensible as would a similar arming and sending the Klu Klux Klan as a National Guard to "pacify" Ferguson!

If I'd made such a claim, I'd most certainly back it up with evidence.

All of my postings have been that Russia's support has been secondary.
