"RIGA, Latvia — About a thousand people marched on Monday to pay tribute to Latvians who fought in German Waffen SS units against the Soviet Union during World War II, despite jeering from protesters who say the parade glorifies fascism.
Aging war veterans led the procession to Riga’s Freedom Monument, where they laid flowers and sang traditional songs.
The annual march has become a public relations headache for Latvian leaders.
Participants say they are simply honoring the so-called legionnaires for trying to defend Latvia against the Red Army. But protesters, many of them from Latvia’s ethnic Russian minority, call the march an insult to the millions who fought and died in the struggle against Nazi Germany.
After the ceremony, a small group of protesters dressed in mock disinfectant gear cleaned the ground near the monument in a symbolic gesture and held up photos of Nazi atrocities.
“The glorification of the Legion is synonymous to the glorification of Nazism,” said Alexander Filey, a 26-year-old protester.
Latvia was invaded by both Soviet and German forces during WWII and remained occupied by the Soviet Union until 1991. Many Latvians were forcibly conscripted into Waffen SS divisions known as the Latvian Legion, while others volunteered.
Some Latvians consider them heroes who fought for independence from communism.
“We live in a free country and if legionnaires want to put flowers at the Freedom Monument, they are free to do so,” said Liana Langa, a Latvian poet who participated in the march.
Nazi hunter Efraim Zuroff of the Simon Wiesenthal Center called the march an attempt to hide the crimes of Nazi collaborators in Latvia.
Nearly 80,000 Jews, or 90 percent of Latvia’s prewar Jewish population, were killed in 1941-42. Supporters of the legionnaires say that was before the Latvian Legion was created. But Zuroff said some of the legionnaires “had actively participated in the mass murder of Jews before joining the Waffen SS.”

Why does the squeaky wheel always get the grease? Why does the majority never speak up and just say, "fuck off, we don't really care".
So, a few folks crying gets everyone in a tizzy?

Take Nazis out of the frame for a moment. Stalin sided with Hitler until Hitler invaded USSR. It was a relationship of convenience despite Hitler murdering communists in Germany, Stalin took his side... until Germany attacked USSR... then killed 20 million or more of his own people after the war. Yeah, you should be really proud. Especially on the anniversary of the red army raping German women and murdering them as they overtook Berlin.
Go invade Georgia again you fucking scumbag. Touch Poland or a NATO country and watch Putin's nutsack shrivel faster than an IFBB pro's.

Sucks when you get intellectualy dominated, doesn't it?
You can ride bareback on a horse back to the Russian wilderness now, safe in your pseudo democracy where the two term presidential term limit can be overcome by being PM for a term while Medvedev is your puppet before strongarming your way back to power and imprisoning anyone who threatens you. Why not give over 50% of civil engineering projects to your friends while you're at it Mr Putin? Jesus, even Dick Cheney didn't have the balls to do that.

Say what you will about the Nazis. The Soviets were a million times worse in pretty much every way.
The Soviet Union killed tons of Jews also yet the Nazis are the only ones who get a bad rep for Jew killing.

I purposely divorced Nazism from the conversation. You are celebrating a relative killing those he was allied with at the start of the war. For an ideology that mass murdered its own people. Defend that. Please. You fucking cretin.
@Thongmaniac, please, show my Nazi smypathy anywhere.... you won't find it. Or my anonymity. I post pics.

Yeah, now that's done, be proud of your forefathers who backstabbed those they fought alongside until 1941 and "killed by the bushel" thereafter. Those who helped keep Stalin, a man so prodigious at murder Pol Pot and Hitler combined couldn't rival him, in power. I am so envious of your country with its currency that is deflating like an offcycle pro and your "democracy" where you have one choice of president and let's not forget, the biggest country in the world... with an economy smaller than Texas. You fucking stain. Should have been a blow job but mother Russia prbably forbade it.

I don't necessarily see that this automatically glorifies nazism. I can see, however, how some that believe in the ideology to cling onto ceremonies like this. A bunch of war vets and people who lived under and fought against communism, I got no beef with that.

Lol you live in a bigger house? Is this 1996, where everyone ran to the suburbs to buy a cookie cutter mcmansion built like shit and looks exactly like your neighbors? Id hardly call that one-upping someone. If your gonna focus on insulting people, the education thing sounded better. You lost it when you start talking about your bigger house and nice furniture LOL. Thats something my grandparents would find appealing

Good for them. I salute them for that. Their population is 99.9% White. And they have some of the least immigration in Europe. Don't try to make them out to be bad people for standing up for themselves. In contrast to my own pussywhipped country :/

I could post pics of house and interior and, unless Tedim is an oligarch, humiliate him. I could post pics of my 2 degress and master's degree (from a top 100 in world Uni) etc etc. but I saw his post this morning, smiled as he couldn't refute my points on substance and left it at that.
By his logic, billionaires would come out on top in any debate... unless the other side had a bigger house and bank account. ::)
