If Nazism is not as pervasive as you say it is in the Ukraine @Cray, why is it ok to train, support and arm far right extremists?

Did you mean to quote yebocan's post? It looks like you are asking me a question in response to someone else hypothetical?

In short, in normal times I don't think it's a good thing to arm and train any extremists, left or right, but in a fight for the existence of your country, am not sure the Ukrainians have the luxury of being picky on who his willing to fight to defend their country.

South Africa will toe the line as soon as anyone barks in the direction of ANC.

South Africa is part of BRICS, so it is going to fence sit as much as it can so there is no economic fallout from this whole crisis. Not saying it is right or wrong. SA will service the position which gives it the best outcome.
