According to an Amnesty International report in 2008, there were 85,000 neo-Nazis in Russia. According to a preliminary version of the 2010 annual report of Verfassungsschutz (Germany’s domestic intelligence services), there were 25,000 right-wing extremists, of whom 5,600 were neo-Nazis, in Germany. How many people were living in Russia in 2008? – probably about 140 million? How many people were living in Germany in 2010? – about 81,799,000. So about 0.03% of people in Germany were right-wing extremists in 2010. In Russia in 2008, about 0.06% of people were neo-Nazis. The percentages are very small indeed! The comparisons are crude – not all right-wing extremists are neo-Nazis – but you get some idea of how much the neo-Nazi threat in Russia has been blown up.

You should read this article from WSWS.org by the way: http://www.wsws.org/articles/2011/dec2011/nazi-d24.shtml
- and then you will realise who’s been aiding and abetting neo-Nazi groups in Germany.

Germany also invaded several countries in Europe including Greece, the Baltic States, Belgium, Croatia, Italy and France during World War 2 and these countries also have extremist right-wing and neo-Nazi groups. The United States and Australia weren’t invaded by Germany and they also have extremist right-wing and neo-Nazi groups. Even Israel has neo-Nazi groups (most of whom admittedly are associated with Russian immigrants).

My belief also is that Chechens don’t like Wahhabism and regard it as an extreme affront to their traditions. They are traditionally Sufi Muslims of the Naqshbandi rite and their worship revolves around private meetings called zikrs.

Ramzan Kadyrov, the current leader in Chechnya, seems to be building a personal network around himself and this may bring him into conflict with Moscow after presidential elections in March.

Sorry Alex that is just BS.

Despite western revisionist and historian’s propaganda Jews were a hostile elite force within Russia who only masked there anti-Semitism for political reasons as a backlash of the overwhelming Jews numbers in the USSR a typical Jewish strategy among Jewish political movements like we see today with the Neoconservative movement.

During and after the post Soviet revolution stage hundreds of churches were destroyed but not one synagogue.

In her book World on Fire by Amy Chua on how minorities dominate in free market societies when referencing Jewish Oligarch domination of Russia she excuses them by claiming that they are so well assimilated that there Jewishness is not a real factor despite the fact that some if not most are Israeli citizens like Berezovsky and linked to major Jewish organisations.

Yeah, its not like Hitler invaded the Soviet Union killing some 22 million people is it? [/sarcasm]

An article debunking common myths about the Russian Federation in a way that doesn’t seemingly try to rub the general being wrong-ness in my face would be much appreciated. For the time being, this was fairly enjoyable too.
