I try to be open minded and give things a fair shake but when your article opens with "a guy I know compared Ukraine to the Germans in 1945" and follows up with "Russia is undefeatable therefore resistance is futile" I gotta assume I'm not looking at fair, balanced and transparent journalism. Downvoted.

Ever heard about Stepan Bandera? If let's say Norwegians started to venerate Vidkun Quisling or French with Philippe Petain, similar comparisons would be immediate.
