    If you think that by saying "Glory to Ukraine" one expresses fascination with Ukrainian nazis, you are deeply mistaken. The salutation has stopped being associated with nationalists (and it never was with Nazis) and it is quite usual to hear it from different people (including jews, officials, priests) on different occasions.

    Symbolic words and images may change and lose their former significance and associations. Same as the current Russian flag in the time of WWII was a symbol of Vlasov's army. And swastika of ancient India has been totally usurped by Hitler and has now totally negative connotation.
