"The rabbi's fallen son didn't fight alongside Nazis": Laura Loomer admits she believed Russian propaganda American MAGA influencer Laura Loomer, who is continuing her trip across Ukraine, said her visit to the country changed her views after meeting Chief Rabbi of Ukraine Moshe Azman. "I admit, I fell for Russian propaganda," Loomer wrote. She said that before visiting Ukraine, she believed the Ukrainian military was "full of Nazis" and had even called President Volodymyr Zelenskyy "a self-hating Nazi Jew." She now says she had accepted Kremlin narratives and argues that Ukraine's anti-Semitism laws are stricter than those in the United States. Loomer also revealed that one of Rabbi Azman's sons, who served in the Ukrainian army, was killed fighting Russian forces. "His Jewish son didn't fight alongside Nazis," she wrote, adding that she now considers Russia's claims about the need to "denazify Ukraine" to be propaganda.
