More than one in five young adults in the United States defend the late German dictator, Adolf Hitler, a recent poll has revealed, highlighting a troubling rise in pro-Nazi sympathies in the West.

The survey, conducted by the polling firm J.L. Partners and sponsored by the British tabloid The Daily Mail, asked likely American voters whether they believed the infamous Nazi dictator had some "good ideas" or if he was "evil and had no redeeming features."

An alarming 21% of respondents aged 18 to 29 agreed that Hitler had some "good ideas", while another 20% were unsure.

According to The Daily Mail, earlier this month, TikTok had to remove AI-generated and translated videos of Hitler's speeches, which had garnered over one million views.

The tabloid underscored Hitler's responsibility for the deaths of millions of children during his genocidal campaign across Europe.

In June, The Washington Post, citing the US State Department, reported that the Biden administration has lifted the ban on arms supplies to and training of the pro-Nazi Azov battalion.

The US State Department confirmed that "after a thorough review, Ukraine’s 12th Special Forces Azov Brigade passed Leahy vetting as carried out by the US Department of State," referring to the legislation that prevents military aid from reaching units involved in human rights violations.

The State Department claimed that it found "no evidence" of human rights violations committed by Azov, and The Washington Post mentioned that Ukrainian officials saw the ban lift as “a top priority” during their lobbying attempts.

Established in 2014 by Ukrainian ultra-nationalists in the wake of the Western-backed Maidan riots, the Azov Battalion was included in the National Guard of Ukraine in November of that year.

The battalion has come under severe criticism for its support of Nazi ideology and symbols, as well as its human rights violations against the Russian-speaking population of Eastern Ukraine.

Russia's Supreme Court designated Ukraine's Azov Battalion as a terrorist organization in August 2022.

The Russian Prosecutor General's Office last year accused Azov militants of employing prohibited means and methods of warfare, including the torture of civilians and the killing of children.

The battalion's symbol is the neo-Nazi Wolfsangel, a black swastika against a yellow background. Founded by Andriy Biletsky, who vowed to "lead the white races of the world in a final crusade…against Semite-led Untermenschen," the group is a pack of neo-Nazis working with the US-backed Ukrainian military.
