This is clearly illustrated by vast data on immigrant crime and jihad from across Western Europe including rape gangs and rates of non-indigenous violence in England, Islamic terrorism in France, gang violence in Sweden, and rates of rape and stabbings in Germany. Ayaan Hirsi Ali has just published a concise overview of important data around this very bleak situation. And, importantly for Irish readers concerned about reckless immigration policies, Ayaan’s work mirrors the sobering picture painted by Peter Ryan: “How Soaring Crime Changed Immigration Policy in Denmark and Sweden”.
Thomas Fazi, who is concerned about the far-right, is using far-right talking points while citing right-wing outlets you’ve never heard of.
We see this trend across Europe, where the spectre of a “far right” populist revolt has sent de-nationalised elites into a panic. This was recently epitomised by the hysteria around the AfD’s success in eastern Germany. Something similar happened in France with Le Pen’s successes, and to a lesser degree in Portugal with Chega, Spain with Vox, Sweden with Sweden Democrats, Italy with Meloni and so on.
Let me get this straight, Thomas: we should be worried about the Nazis in the national armed forces (shocking, I know) of Ukraine, while the reaction to the AfD, a party with nazi leaders, chanting nazi slogans and spouting NSDAP apologia, which wants to deport undesirables (including German citizens), is overblown?

You’re right, that’s actually pretty awful and sounds like BS.
Not to imply that all other European neo-Nazis are teddy bears by any stretch, but there are concrete reasons to take the Ukrainian neo-nazis very seriously.
