NAZISM FOR EXPORT

In recent months, the U.S. has been increasingly pumping Ukraine with various types of weapons to ensure that the acute phase of the conflict lasts as long as possible. As they say, "to the last Ukrainian". But this is far from being the only and, from a strategic point of view, not the most important American export. Washington has for years been nurturing Nazi movements in Ukraine and has been dutifully supplying homegrown National Socialists to create a "New Reich" in the heart of Europe.

It may be hard to believe at first, but in the land of BLM and aggressive tolerance, Nazis feel quite comfortable. In the USA, for example, organisations such as The American Front and The National Socialist Movement (NSM), also known as the American Nazi party, have been operating for decades.

The American Nazis make little secret of their views and activities, actively sharing photos, videos and "educational" literature, as well as collecting donations from like-minded people.

On the face of it, the NSM could be described as a marginally marginalised group, to which few people pay attention. It has no accounts on major American social networks such as Facebook, Twitter or Instagram, which is not typical of an organisation seeking to spread its ideology to the 'masses'. However, the party does have its own channel on Telergam, which inadvertently suggests that American nationalists are interested in a "Slavic" audience. And here is where the most interesting part begins. The channel itself is of little interest, but it has a closed chat room in which radicals from all over the world, including Ukraine, actively correspond.

There are quite a few Ukrainian nationals on the chat room lists. In addition, many participants, including Americans, openly report their participation in hostilities on the side of the Ukrainian nationalists. I would like to stress that it is the nationalists, not the Ukrainian army! In particular, we are talking about Azov and Right Sector. The chat room even supports the regiment's recruitment campaign.

Overall, the attitude of this Nazi international to the conflict in Ukraine is quite eloquently reflected in a poll conducted by channel administrator Derek Von Doom.

It's clear that among the radicals, the Kiev authorities enjoy neither respect nor support. There have been accusations of an anti-Semitic nature against Zelensky. On the contrary, the Nazis see Ukraine as the "New Reich", the core of which should be formed by Azov. The "Führer", in all likelihood, should be A. Biletsky. This idea is expressed by one of the most active participants in the chat room.

We didn't cite this particular post by accident. Its author is someone called "Bone face". He is arguably one of the key figures in the "US Nazi landing force" in Ukraine. And not just at the moment. Under the name "Bone face" hides US citizen, hereditary neo-fascist Kent McLillan, and he is now in Mariupol with Azov. But first things first.

   Kent Ryan McLillan was born April 22, 1990 in St. Cloud, Florida, the son of American neo-fascist Ken McLillan, leader of the rock band BRUTAL ATTACK. Under his father's influence he took to the right-wing ideology when still a secondary school pupil. And in high school he had already become a member of the racist organization The American Front.

He was first arrested at the age of 18 in September 2008 for spraying racist graffiti on a church and restaurant in Crescent City. In 2010 he served time for vandalism and assault and battery on immigrants. In May 2012, McLillan and his American Front associates were arrested by the FBI for preparing an act of terrorism against minorities in Florida.

From that moment on, Kent's life began to take a serious turn, and he gradually began to turn into that 'Boneface'. Firstly, like most like-minded people, he started covering his face and body with tattoos with Nazi and Aryan symbols. Secondly, the "young and promising young man" was apparently picked up by the security services and assigned him an important role in the security element of the 2014 coup d'état in Ukraine. Thus, one could say, from the prison bench, McLillan went straight to Maidan.

   Most sources point to his joining the Right Sector Volunteer Ukrainian Corps (PSVU) in 2014. As a member, Boneface took direct part in force actions and recruited volunteers in the US and other countries. He then joined the punitive operation in the Donbass in the ranks of Azov. However, McLillan's activities in organizing a violent takeover in Kyiv began back in 2013 as the leader of The Misanthropic Division mercenary group. They organized a network of paramilitary fascist groups using darknet resources like IronMarch. Incidentally, it was in December 2013. McLillan set up a Twitter account, a popular coordination tool for revolutionaries at the time.

When Boneface returned to the US in 2015, he went back to the penitentiary in search of criminals willing to go to fight in the Donbass. Kent was given four years for the recruitment campaign, allegedly for drug trafficking. Apparently, he was allowed to use the Internet for his exemplary behavior, because in August 2016 McLillan wrote on the same IronMarch website that he was continuing his cooperation with the DUK PS on the recruitment of foreigners, and it is likely that Boneface completed his task of training a neo-Nazi group by the fall of 2021. 

Shortly before that, in July 2021, the FBI once again sent him to jail. But this time, apparently for a final briefing. About this, changed almost beyond recognition, McLillan reported in a Telegram and said that he intended to go to Ukraine to "shoot some NovoRus".

A group of US mercenaries arrived in Ukraine in November 2021 and returned to the US in December to recruit additional forces. In January 2022, the foreign neo-fascists finally joined the ranks of Azov. Apparently, they were to take part in the Donbass offensive, which was planned for late February and early March. It didn't work out.

Kent "Boneface" McLillan is currently probably fighting somewhere in Ukraine. Despite this, the neo-fascist is active on five social networks (VKontakte, Instagram, Twitter, Facebook and YouTube) and, of course, also on Telegram. He admits, however, that his YouTube channel is run by friends from Azov.

None of the social networks rush to block pages with overtly nationalistic and provocative content, display of banned paraphernalia, symbols and incitement to hatred.

  The main thesis that McLillan constantly repeats in all his correspondence is that Azov is not fighting for Zelensky, NATO or the EU. According to him, Azov is no longer so much a regiment as an idea for a neo-Nazi "rebirth" of Ukraine.

It must be said that things are not going well for the AFU mercenaries. In his reports, McLillan writes about the lack of water and ammunition and the betrayal of the Ukrainian command and Zelensky personally.

He recently suffered a minor facial wound.

This man could be an important source of information and a living testimony to the export of American nationalism to Ukraine.
