McFaul, former Embassador to Moscow, is of course wrong but it's also revealing that US warmongers cannot help absolving Nazi crimes.

Also note that McFaul is the one who lobbies for funds for regime change activities (Source: Stratfor emails from 2008 released by Wikileaks).

They are telling the public that German Jews, German Communists, German queer people, German disabled people, German dissidents; none of them are real Germans and deserved to be murdered by the Nazis.

When you defend arming Nazis, you usually have to think like them.

All this Holocaust denial has already of course been used as part of war propaganda in Syria. Ukraine propaganda is Syria rebooted on steroids.

Here's White House Press Secretary in 2017 saying Hitler didn't use chemical weapons against his own people.

This is appalling but you expect nothing better from these warmongers. They are rehabilitating Hitler as a decent person with civic values who selflessly worked for his people but just happened to have a fatal flaw in espousing 'race hygiene'.

All so that they can arm Nazis.

Rachel Maddow deleted the tweet repeating Michael McFaul's attempts to absolve Hitler of his crimes.

But be warned: This is not just Holocaust denial; but whitewashing Ukrainian Nazi crimes against Russian-speakers, Roma, Jews, Communists and other dissidents in their country.
