The rapper praised Hitler in a recent interview with conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, along with sharing the Swatstika image, having only been allowed to return to the site two weeks ago, after he made previous anti semitic comments.

Kanye West has widely castigated over his slew of antisemitic comments that he has made over the past few months. Such comments have seen high profile companies like Adidas cut ties with the rapper.

Yesterday, West who recently finalised his divorce from his wife Kim Kardashian, sparked further fury after clips of him praising Nazi leaders came to light on social media, where West was giving an interview to a far right website owned by Alex Jones, known as Infowars.

In the clips, West can be heard saying, "I like Hitler".

In the interview, Alex Jones told West, "You're not Hitler, you're not a Nazi, so you don't deserve to be called that and demonised".

"Well, I see good things about Hitler also", Kanye West replied. "I love everyone, and Jewish people are not going to tell me, 'you can love, you know, us'... every human being has something of value that they brought to the table, especially Hitler". 

Kanye West Suspended

Following his controversial Nazi tweets, Elon Musk the owner of Twitter has since confirmed that Kanye West's account has been suspended for violating its policies and inciting violence. 

When asked by a fan to "fix Kanye", Musk replied, "I tried my best". 

"Despite that, he again violated our rule against incitement to violence. Account will be suspended", he added. 

Kanye West also shared a screenshot confirming that he had been locked out of Twitter account, posting the snap on Truth Social, the social platform set up by former U.S President Donald Trump.
