    Given that the White Helmets are reich-wing terrorist thugs and genocidal, bloodthirsty Uncle Tom equivalents, it makes perfect sense they they teach the Ukrainian military how to “rescue” civilians.

    They both “rescue” civilians them from life by bombing, shooting, and molesting them.

          Is it because the major villian in the current anti-imperialist front is white supremacists who think that they are good because of their white skin color or their association to white people? Or is it that the current media focus on political topic is to slander anyone who oppose American imperialism?

      What CaptCalhoun said, but I’ll add that there’s suspicion that the WH are actually just a propaganda wing of ISIS/ISIL, who use humanitarian work to convert people into followers of their cause. With how the internet is, it’s really hard to find sources that you saw years ago and didn’t save, but I remember seeing some pictures where white helmets were matched up with identical pictures of themselves in ISIS/ISIL brigades.

      Which, should that be true, would make it make total sense that they’d be reaching out to Ukraine. Before long we might start seeing Azov doing hearts and minds campaigns in the same way WH does.
