Two Czech soldiers wore helmets with SS symbols during their
deployment in Afghanistan.
It has just been discovered that two commanders of the Czech military
working under NATO command used Nazi symbols on their helmets during
their deployment in Afghanistan.
The story was made public after Czech police serving in Afghanistan
reported the case, the Russia Today website reported on Tuesday.
According to the daily Mlada fronta Dnes, the soldiers, identified as
Hynek Matonoha and Jan Cermak, wore the symbols of the 9th SS panzer
division Hohenstaufen and the SS Dirlewanger brigade respectively,
which were probably the most infamous SS combat units of World War II.
Unaware of their sordid actions, Czech Defense Minister Martin Bartak
decorated the soldiers for bravery on Friday after their return from
Afghanistan.
Later, the minister said that at the time, he had not yet learned
about the helmet controversy, which has caused quite a stir among the
country's armed forces.
A specialist in extremism, Michal Mazel, has rejected the excuse given
by one of the men, who said that he had unintentionally used the
symbols.
�He is an elite troop who graduated from university, he is no
teenager. The SS symbols on their helmets show a totally perverse view
of the world of the NATO military's elite troop,� Russia Today quoted
Mazel as saying.
Anti-violence activists say the case with the soldiers is nothing new
for the Czech Republic.
�There were several attacks on Roma and other communities in recent
years, and these problems in our army, of course, shocked all Czech
people,� said Ivona Novomestska, spokesperson for an anti-violence
movement.

Born To Be A Jihadi!
COOPERATING WITH SUCH SCUM. MAY BE THE AFGHANIS SHOULD DO BETTER IN
GETTING RID OF ALL THE COLONIAL POWERS THAT INVADED THEIR COUNTRY.
EASILY SAID THAN DONE. PEOPLE ARE FORCED TO PERFORM UNDER FORCES AND
IT TAKES TIME TO GET RID OF THESE FORCES. THERE IS A USA PLAN TO
DIVIDE THE AFGHANIS FURTHER SO THAT THEY BECOME EASILY CONTROLLED. I
WOULD NOT EVEN BE SURPRISED TO KNOW THAT THESE SS PEOPLE ARE JEWISH.
