And that nonsense the fascist commie rulers said about the UK and Poland cannot even be commented on...
So you agree that fascism is not completely the same thing as nazism (which actually is a sort of fascism, but not the only possible one) let alone nationalism. So can you explain on what ground is based the above mentioned accusation of right-winged European parties in fascism?
Oh, by the way, how can you comment the well-known Swedish friendly "neutrality" to the nazi's Germany during the WWII? For me it looks that Sweden was much more a German ally than the USSR. It used to supply the nazis with the iron ore and other materials all the way long.
As for Poland, how could you comment that Poland tortured to death about 80 000 captive soldiers of the Red Army in their concentration camps during the 20s?
Haven't you heard about Tuchola concentration camp?
