I wrote this particular piece in 2014/15 just after the February 2014 coup. As it turned out the coup has evolved into a greater political and strategic military conflict – orchestrated by outside forces, the western NATO bloc, and carried out by internal neo-nazi forces in the west of the Ukraine. These far-right factions have changed their names and a leadership which rotates around the personnel, but the politics remains the same.
The overwhelming support given by the centre-left in both Europe and the US to the installation of the regime in Kiev should give them cause for concern.
Politics in the Ukraine can only be understood by reference to its history and ethnic and cultural make-up – a make-up criss-crossed by lasting and entrenched ethnic, cultural, and political differences. The country has long been split into the northern and western Ukraine, where Ukrainian is the official and everyday lingua franca, and the more industrialised regions of the east and south where a mixture of Russian speaking Ukrainians and ethnic Russians reside. Additionally, there has long been Hungarian and Romanian settlement in the west of the country, and a particularly important Polish presence, whose unofficial capital, Lviv, was once the Polish city of Lwow. The Russian Orthodox Church is the predominant form of Christianity in the East, whilst in the west the Christian tradition tends towards Roman Catholicism.
Politically the Eastern and Southern Oblasts (Regions) which includes the cities and centres of heavy industry, Kharkov, Lugansk, Donetsk, Zaporozhe, Nikolayev, Kherson, Simferopol, and Odessa, have tended to tilt towards Russia whilst the western regions have had a more western orientation. This has traditionally been reflected in the electoral division of the country. There is no party which can be considered ‘national’ in this respect, except ironically, the old Communist party, which of course is now banned. The major regional parties have been the Fatherland party of Yulia Tymoshenko (since renamed) and the former head of government, Arseniy Yatsenyuk as well as the ultra-nationalists predominantly in the west of the country, and the deposed Victor Yanukovich’s Party of the Regions in the East (now defunct) along with its junior partner in the coalition, the Ukrainian Communist Party.
However, what is new since the coup in February 2014 there has been the emergence from the shadows of ultra-nationalist (fascist) parties and movements, with both parliamentary and extra-parliamentary (i.e., military) wings. In the main ‘Svoboda’ or Freedom Party, and the paramilitaries of ‘Right Sector’ (Fuhrer: Dimitry Yarosh) who spearheaded the coup in Kiev; these have been joined or changed their names to inter alia the Radical Party, and Patriots of the Ukraine; this in addition to the punitive right-wing militias particularly the highest profile being the Azov Regiment who have been responsible for numerous atrocities in the Don Bas.
Suffice it to say, however, that these political movements and parties did not emerge from nowhere.
This far-right tradition has been historically very strong in the western Ukraine. The Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN) was first established in 1929 and brought together, war veterans, student fraternities, far-right groups and various other disoriented social and political flotsam and jetsam under its banner. The OUN took its ideological position from the writings of one, Dymtro Dontsov, who, like Mussolini had been a socialist, and who was instrumental in creating an indigenous Ukrainian fascism based upon the usual mishmash of writings and theories including Friedrich Nietzsche, Georges Sorel, and Charles Maurras. Dontsov also translated the works of Hitler and Mussolini into Ukrainian.
The OUN was committed to ethnic purity, and relied on violence, assassination, and terrorism, not least against other Ukrainians, to achieve its goal of a totalitarian and homogeneous nation-state. Assorted enemies and impediments to this goal were Communists, Russians, Poles, and of course – Jews. Strongly oriented toward the Axis powers OUN founder Evhen Konovalets (1891-1938) stated that his movement was ‘’waging war against mixed marriages’’, with Poles, Russians and Jews, the latter which he described as ‘’foes of our national rebirth’’. Indeed, rabid anti-Semitism has been a leitmotif in the history of Ukrainian fascism, which we will return to below.
Konovelts himself was assassinated by a KGB hit-man in 1938 after which the movement split into two wings: (OUN-M) under Andrii Melnyk and, more importantly for our purposes (OUN-B) under Stepan Bandera. Both wings committed to a new fascist Europe. Upon the German invasion in June 1941, the OUN-B attempted to establish a Ukrainian satellite state loyal to Nazi Germany. Stepan Lenkavs’kyi the then chief propagandist of the OUN-B ‘government’ advocated the physical destruction of Ukrainian Jewry. OUN-B’s ‘Prime Minister’ Yaroslav Stets’ko, and deputy to Bandera supported, ‘’the destruction of the Jews and the expedience of bringing German methods of exterminating Jewry to Ukraine, barring their assimilation and the like.’’
During the early days of the rapid German advance into the Soviet Union there were some 140 pogroms in the western Ukraine claiming the lives of between 13000-35000 people (Untermensch, in fascist terminology). In 1943-1944 OUN-B and its armed wing the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (Ukrainska Povstanska Armia – UPA) under the leadership of Roman Shukeyvich the Ukrainian military leader, and one of the organizers of the Galicia-Volhynia carried out large scale ethnic cleansing resulting in the deaths of tens of thousands; this was a particularly gruesome affair where some 90000 Poles and thousands of Jews were murdered. The campaign of the UPA continued well into the 1950s until it was virtually wiped out by the Soviet Red Army.
It should be said that during this early period Bandera himself had been incarcerated by the German authorities up until his release in 1944, since unlike Bandera they were not enamoured of an independent Ukrainian state but wanted total control. Bandera was only released at this late date since the German high command was endeavouring to build up a pro-German Ukrainian Quisling military force to hold up the remorseless advance of the Red Army. Also pursuant to this it is also worth noting that during this period the 14th Galizian Waffen SS Division, a military Ukrainian collaborationist formation established by none other than Heinrich Himmler, which was formed to fight the Soviet forces, and yet another being the Nachtingal brigade; (1) this unit was integrated into the 14th Galizian in due course. It is also interesting to note, that every year, and up to 2014 commemoration ceremony including veterans of this unit takes place with a march through Lviv in an evening torchlight parade – genuine Nazi pastiche. The flag of this unit is not dissimilar to the French automobile manufacturer Peugeot logo, the standing lion, and can be seen at ultra-nationalist rallies as well as particular bitter rivalry between football matches involving Lviv Karparti FC and Shaktar Donetsk FC. There are also numerous statues of Bandera across Ukraine – see below – and since the 2014 coup even street names bearing the same name. Significantly the UPA have now received political rehabilitation from the Kiev Junta, with Bandera declared a hero of the Ukraine and the UPA rebranded as ‘freedom fighters.’ One particularly splendid statue of Bandera stands proudly in Lviv and lovingly adorned with flowers.
Other novel attractions the capital of Banderestan include ‘Jewish themed restaurants’ one such is Kryivka (Hideout or Lurking Hole) where guests have a choice of dishes and whose dining walls are decorated with larger-than-life portraits of Bandera, and the toilet with Russian and Jewish anecdotes. At another Jewish themed restaurant guests are offered black hats of the sort worn by Hasidim. The menu lists no prices for the dishes; instead, one is required to haggle over highly inflated prices ‘’in the Jewish fashion’’. Yes, it’s all good clean fun in Lviv. Anti-Semitism also sells. Out of 19 book vendors on the streets of central Lviv, 16 were openly selling anti-Semitic literature. About 70% of the anti-Semitic publications in Ukraine are being published by and educational institution called MUAP (The Inter-Regional Academy of Personnel Management). MAUP is a large, well-connected, and increasingly powerful organization funded from outside anti-Semite sources, and also connected to White Supremacist groups in the USA and to David Duke, former Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan.
(It is one of the ironies of history that if the Zionists in AIPAC and the Washington neo-con think tanks, and the British Labour Party Friends of Israel, were so concerned about anti-Semitism, they might try looking for it in Lviv. They wouldn’t have to search very far.)
Present day neo-Nazi groupings in Ukraine – Svoboda (Freedom) party and Right Sector, C14 and those patriotic chaps in the Azov Battalion – have been the direct descendants from the prior ideological cesspool. Heading Svoboda is Oleh Tyahnybok. Although these are separate organizations Tyahnybok’s deputy Yuriy Mykhalchyshyn was the main link between Svoboda’s official wing and neo-Nazi militias like Right Sector. The Social-Nationalist party as it was formerly known chose as its logo an amended version of the Wolfsangel, a symbol used by many SS divisions on the Eastern front during the war who in 2004 a celebration of the OUN-UPA, stated in 2004, that ‘’they fought against the Muscovite, Germans, Jews, and other scum who wanted to take away our Ukrainian state.’’
(Note that Tyahnybok is giving what appears to be the Nazi salute (or maybe he is just waving to someone in the audience!) He can also be seen standing at the left hand of the late and controversial US politician, John McCain, at another Banderist rally).
And further that ‘’Ukraine was ruled by a Muscovite-Jewish mafia.’’ Tyahnybok came under pressure from the then President, Yuschenko, to retract his inflammatory statements, which he did, but he then retracted the retraction!
Given the fact that Svoboda was, apart from its stamping grounds in the west, making little national electoral headway, it was essential to clean up its image and deny its Nazi past. But this was always going to be difficult since the members of such groups cannot help the unscripted outbursts and faux pas which they tend to make, and which reveals their true colours. For example, following the conviction and sentencing of John Demjanjuk to five years in jail for his role as an accessory to the murder of 27,900 people at the Sobibor death camp, Tyahnybok travelled to Germany and met up with Demjanjuk’s lawyer, presenting the death camp guard as a hero, a victim of persecution ‘’who is fighting for truth’’. (2)
And so, it goes on. We can therefore infer that this organization is inveterate fascist. More disturbing Svoboda has links with the so-called Alliance of National European Movements, which includes: Nationaldemokraterna of Sweden, Front Nationale of France, Fiamma Tricolore in Italy, the Hungarian Jobbik and the Belgian National Front. More importantly Svoboda held several ministerial portfolios in the Kiev administration, and Right Sector swaggers around Kiev streets with impunity, and/or are being drafted into a National Guard to deal with the separatist movements in the east, or to beat down anyone who doesn’t conform to their Ayran racial and political ideals.
One would have thought that this mutating revolution and establishment in the Ukraine would have drawn attention of the centre-left to the fact that fascism had gained a vital beachhead in Europe, and that the danger signals should be flashing. But not a bit of it; a perusal of the British Guardian newspaper quickly reveals that their chief concern has been with a non-existent ‘Russian threat’. One of their reporters – or old friend, Luke Harding -described Right Sector as an ‘’eccentric group of people with unpleasant right-wing views.’’ Priceless! This must rank as the political understatement of the century. In fact, the Guardian was simply reiterating the US-imposed neo-conservative foreign policy. But naturally, this is par for the course.
The man himself – Stepan Bandera
- The Nachtingal brigade, which was later incorporated into the SS Galizien, took part in a three-day massacre of the Jewish population of Lvov (now Lviv) from 30 June 1941. Roman Shukhevych was the commander of the Nachtingal and later, in 1943, became commander of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (the “Banderivtsy”, or UPA/UIA ), armed henchmen of the fascist Stepan Bandera, who after the war pretended that they had fought both Nazis and Communists. Members of the division are also accused of having murdered some 800 residents of the Polish village of Huta Pieniacka and 44 civilians in the village of Chania. All in a day’s work for these ‘patriots’.
- John Demjanjuk served as a Trawniki man and Nazi camp guard at Sobibor extermination camp, Majdanek, and Flossenbürg. Demjanjuk became the centre of global media attention in the 1980s, when he was tried and convicted in Israel after being misidentified as “Ivan the Terrible“, a notoriously cruel watchman at Treblinka extermination camp.
Brilliant article. Most useful. Many thanks!
The “left” became fascist to the extent, that it assimilated – especially after 1990 – this “cave- and stone-age liberalism” …
This one fits very well to “anarchism”, “left-wing radicalism” and similar pseudo-communist stupidities …
Imminent NATO invasion of western Ukraine via Polish armed forces?
Has the US squeezed the max out of the Banderistas?
Reported in RT today:
“Intelligence obtained by Russia suggests that Poland and the US are working on a plan for Warsaw to regain control of Ukrainian areas that Warsaw considers as “historically belonging” to it, Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) chief Sergey Naryshkin has said.
According to the alleged plan, the first stage of this “reunification” will see Polish “peacekeepers” deployed in western Ukraine under the pretext of “protection from Russian aggression,” Naryshkin revealed in a statement on Thursday.”

Polish claims to formerly held territory was always on the cards, John.
President Putin needs to take the initiative and offer Romania, Hungary, Slovakia, Poland & Belarus their former historical & cultural regions which had been added to Ukraine over the last century.
Now here’s the critical aspect – its on an one-in-all-in basis. Think game theory.
If Hungary, Poland & Belarus step up, would Slovakia & Romania really say ‘no thanks’?
By doing so it:
– legitimates Russia’s territorial claim to eastern Ukraine: Novorossiya & Malorossiya;
– immediately enhances Russia’s standing with these former Warsaw Pact countries (as they’d be getting something that the West couldn’t offer them);
– it makes neo-Nazism in these former territories some one else’s problem;
Fortune favours the brave!
Yes! But not enough… just a beginning…
President Putin should not only support Romania, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia’s retaking their territories illegitimately given to Ukraine but extend Russia’s efforts to redraw the map of Europe in a just manner.
I would like him to start with Greece, out of respect for the millenary history of its people and also because Its currents occupants really annoy me in more ways than one. Turkey must withdraw from Cyprus immediately, which belongs to Greece in its entirety.
Having practiced vacating the premises in Cyprus, the Turks should leave the territory currently known as “Turkey,” and the Greeks should move in to reclaim their ancestral lands that gave the world philosophers (Thales of Miletus, Anaximander, Anaximenes, Diogenes, all born in the territory of current “Turkey”), lands where the Trojan war was fought, where Homer was born and lived, where the magnificent Halicarnassus Mausoleum — one of the seven wonders of the ancient world– stood, and where Alexander the Great’s awesome sarcophagus (or a very good replica) still is, in the Istanbul Archeology Museum.
The Turks must get out their 11th century maps to find their way back to where they came from, employing great care when they pass by Armenia.
Greece should not reclaim any other territory, and in the spirit of reconciliation, must pay Georgia for the Golden Fleece robbed by Jason in Colchis.
Classical Greek must become the official language and its study mandatory from kinder garden on; the use of modern Greek (demotic) should be strongly discouraged because the degradation of the aorist tense, strong in ancient Greek (expressing decisive action already fulfilled), has led to a sapping of the national pride and will, and its use by Cavafy has eased the acceptance of effeminate men as leaders.
To Francis Lee.
44 civilians in the village of Chania.
Chania? Crete in Greece?
Seems wonderful to me.Those Turks have become persona non grata with everyone now, as all can see their true colours.
Kaczynski is a lunatic. Taking this western part of the Ukraine, even if it was back then a part of Poland, is pointless and costly. Even if you take you have spend a lot of money on pensions, other social help, salaries of clerks and office workers, policemen etc. Russia has the money to support russian speaking populations and more. Poland has a debt, widespread corruption, there is no money here.
You will also deal with angry antipolish mob and Banderovites/Nazis, who hate Poles right after Russians and Jews. What’s the point in this? Kaczynski tries to make a history by being reckless and making bad irreversible decisions. Maybe it will be better if my disease will be terminal, so I don’t need to watch this failure for too much long. Failure paid with my taxes.
Kaczynski’s former family name is Kalkstein just as Poroshenko’s former family name is Waltzman.
The ideological history is, of course, not without interest. And it is certainly important for some among the leadership of the state called Ukraine, and probably for many people among the rank and file as well. And it probably plays a role in attracting a certain kind of people.
But is it more important than Islam is for ISIS? Is it more important than the dollars, the material well-being, the privileges that have been conveyed, throughout the years, to those who joined the movement?
Yes, Russia can present some swastika tattoos on POWs here and there, and a lot of Wolfsangeln, and even copies of (God forbid!) Mein Kampf are mentioned. But none of that matters. This is just the provocative middle finger pointed at Russia. It has propagandistic value, but on its own it wouldn’t mean a thing.
What matters is the material UK/US/NATO support behind the movement. They have taken over that state and most of that country. And this is what matters both to the rest of the political system in the West, and to the militant and political nationalists.
The pathetic stories about the lolocaust, most of which are grotesque exaggerations or outright lies anyway, will just be ignored for now.
By the way, it is Nachtigall (not Nachtingal), and the Front National in France has meanwhile been renamed to Rassemblement National.
Evhen Konovelts was assasinated in Rotterdam in the restaurant Atlanta by Pavel Sudoplatov, who was agent of NKVD. KGB started to operate 1954. Sudoplatov, who played Konovelts’ friend, gave him a nicely packed box full of supposedly the finest Ukrainian chocklates. In reality, that box was full of explosives. Sudoplatov exused himself from the meeting and quickly left the restaurant. Blast was so powerful that it has thrown body of Konovelts out of the window to the street.
That was some epic action. I belive there is now plenty of deliveries of “Ukrainian chocklets” for Azov in Mariupol by Tu22M3s. :))))))
Misspelled: chocklates and excused. Sorry, I am writing on the smartphone.
Stop it!
This kind of speculation feeds the Western propaganda that conflates the Soviet Union with the Russian Federation and gives oxygen to the preposterous lies of the “assasination attempts” on Navalny (fraudster and traitor marketed as “opposition leader) and of the fully recovered but curiously disappeared Skripals, whom the MI6 is supposedly hiding “for their own protection”…
Russia has no interest in assassinating the Azov criminals and every interest in bringing those who are captured to justice publicly. The ones who keep fighting and killing civilians and Russian soldiers will not be given chocolates but straight bullets.
@adriana:
I mean. WOW! Stop with insitigating a drama. “Ukrainian chocklates” is a synonim for explosives. In this case it is heavy bunker buster ordance being dropped from Russian bombers. Azov is literally squashed with tons of reinforced concrete.
Sorry that your feelings are hurt, but you like it or not history of Soviet Union is intertwined with Russia. Have you ever watched state Russian TV or read their history books, or watched speeches of Putin or other top Russian officials. They often make comparisons with times of Soviet Union to the recent situation and they don’t care what Westerners will say.
If someone belives in bogus cases of Navalny The Clown or Skripals then this is his problem. Now all of sudden we have throw to the dumpster all history of Great Patriotic War, because MI6 will make yet another lie on top of previous one hundred. Chill out, Sudoplatov was rehabilitated by modern Russian state and they didn’t care about opinion of some Anglosaxons. Or cry my a river. Anyway, stop this ignorant drama.
My “feelings” are not hurt. You’re barking up the wrong tree. If you’re only using “chocolates” as code word for explosives in war situation why make it sound like a continuation of KGB’s erstwhile assassinations?
@ariadna:
(Ad hominem removed by mod) You can call it “NKVD/KGB like assassination” or butchery. I prefer calling it sudden delivery of “the finest Ukrainian chocolates”, because I have no respect for OUN minions and NATO, who gave them cover for years.
I don’t know why mod removed part of my commet about Putin, who recently okayed targeting NATO supervisors posing often as “mercenaries” in military camp right next to Polish border with missiles. This is a war and enemy often gets a bunch of explosives. White gloves off, no more mercy, because the true enemy allows to free reign of sadists throwing russians speaking children’s bones to dogs or raping kids in front of their parents. And I don’t see any difference between creator of terrorist organisation OUN Konovelts, who got a delivery of nicely packed explosives straight to his table, and ISIS/Al Nusra being rained with precise salvo of Kalibrs. Is it more brutal or inhumane? Should Sudoplatov wait until OUN minions kill more people under command of their leader, because that is a nasty thing to interrupt someone’s dinner? Why Russia officialy rehabilitated him? For me it is simple, terrorists and homicidal maniacs feeling sword of justice cutting through and in the meantime someone is crying that when you at war you can’t target an enemy, who has nap in a comfy bed or enjoys coffee in a restaurant, because it brings bad memories about KGB to some Westerners, who have done or they are doing much worse things. Putin was a KGB agent too. I still hope she will send that condemning letter. NATO wants 10 year war in Ukrainie and some people are now very touchy about Sudoplatov’s jokes about chocolates for some scum or bunch of rapists.
I admit that I was wrong and Andrew K was right. I have realized today that I was behind the curve. Various pieces have fallen into their rightful slots for me and I see that Russia has reconciled the bumps in its narrative so that history now flows in an unbroken continuity from its earliest times through the Soviet Union and to the Russian Federation of today. The pieces I had missing are that Solzhenitzyn is now persona non grata as are all the critics of the Soviet Union, that the Soviet nostalgia has been upgraded to Soviet glorification (indeed sacralization by Kiril, as noted by Martynov), that the Ceka to NKVD to KGB and today’s RF secret services is one thread without knots, and also that RT has changed its main rubric from “Russia” to “Russia and the Former Soviet Union” (under which news from/about places like Moldavia are posted).
It makes sense. With the exception of the Patriotic War there were too many aspects of the Soviet Union before and after WWII that hanged out like an unsightly hernia, and now that was pushed back into the belly of history and a patch has been applied.
The Red Army that had fought so heroically to defend the Motherland could not be seen as angels with dirty faces when they stormed through Europe, they can only be liberators without any equivocation (even though in some of those countries they did come as looters and rapers and then remained as occupiers for decades, much as the Russians hate to hear that).
Wars are brutal business though, and no conquering army is innocent of war crimes, some more than others. The victors of WWII—the US, UK and the Soviet armies — all committed war crimes but as victors they agreed to impose one narrative, namely that the only war criminal was the 3rd Reich. The Soviets participated in constructing the narrative, not figuratively but literally, building the “ovens.” That tied their truth — the heroic war they fought and won against Germany’s invasion— to the biggest hoax of the 20th century and there is no going back. There are 17 countries in which questioning the holocaust dogma or any expression deemed as “anti-semitism” is punishable by prison. The RF is one of them.
Russia’s losses in the fight against the nazis amounting to 26 million do not, however, seem to entitle it to be considered the senior partner in the enterprise of the group that claimed 6 million victims. Israel and its supporters will not take second seat and they have their own scores to settle with Russia.
The other issue is that the RF is multi-multi-ethnic. That is why “soviet” (CCCP) was such a smart unity-across ethnicity word. Perhaps when the RF changes back its flag to the red with the hammer and sickle, as the talk is now in the Duma, the name of the RF will be changed to something like the Brotherly Russian Federation or All People’s Russian Federation. All “partniori” but Russians in the lead.
I root for Russia because ironically it is still the only hope for the “collective West.” And I will not burn “200 Years Together.”
Every single Azov member, who will stick out his head from the hole and will have a weapon ready to fire instead of white flag will get a bullet or some artillery sortie of Soviet origin right into his Nazi smug face. That’s the reality and it is cruel. I don’t what’s the point bringing here Skripals or that guy, who is sewing some panties for Ruskie soldiers in penal colony, who can magically whistand a f@@@kin’ Novichok as if it was a laughing gas.
Azovs are bunch of Nazis and big fans of OUN, yet they will be whitewashed by the MSM no matter, what Russia will do to them. If they don’t come out and surrender, they will starve to death or they will end as human pancake. And MI6 will be making hundreds media hit pieces about evil Ruskies killing brave Ukies, who were wearing Black Sun and Wolfsangel just, because they like wierd geometrical figures. Russia doesn’t care anymore about MSM. If you still complain about drawing comparisons to USSR, call out Putin for remiding everyone that Soviet Union was sanctioned all the time by West like Russia or its collapse was the greatest geopolitical tragedy in XX century and his other speeches. Don’t forget to condemn him after he will apear in front of Soviet veterans wearing Orders of the Red Banner on 9th May Victory Parade. At the same time, MI6 as usual will be busy reminding everyone about Goebbels propaganda that Soviet soldiers raped everything from 8 to 80 years on their way to the Berlin, which is reused and sold as “truth” by phony British historians. What is wrong with you?
Freedom of mind is refreshing! :) I enjoyed your comments. I would disagree about Joseph Goebbels, but at a later moment.
404 is a hate group
There is a must-read article on Komsomolskaya Pravda on the nature of Ukrainian nationalism: Ukrainian national battalions are pagan orders, and they don’t even consider Russians to be Slavs

@ Petri Krohn
The “Black Sun” is the key element here, because it is a symbol of Satan, the black energy that destroys all enemies and gives extraordinary power to the chosen ones. But if the elect do not fully meet the criteria, are not fully elected, then it destroys them as well. This, as the German occultists wrote, is the fire that can only be controlled by the chosen supreme patron, in their case, Satan. Their ideology is based on the rejection of Christianity, and this is also a tool for the destruction of morality. The Ten Commandments do not apply to them. They are the same order, https://vk.com/@petri.krohn-ukraine-is-a-racist-theory-about-the-inferiority-of-the-russ
The day I read and studied the scripture from Rev. 19 about a war against God Himself left me confounded? That what was created would dare take on the Creator was quite absurd. Think of it in human terms you cursing and killing your own father and mother the very ones who created you!!? What kind of a people would even drum up such a thing? Yes, Stalin of course who hated religion and especially Christianity that given a chance he would have annihilated it from the entire planet. But here to read this is telling and shocking. That Russia has this amassing on its border is frightening and alas the failure of Christian Church to evangelize? What was written is indeed coming to fruition.
Then I saw the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies gathered together to make war against the rider on the horse and his army. But the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who had performed the miraculous signs on his behalf. With these signs he had deluded those who had received the mark of the beast and worshiped his image. The two of them were thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning sulfur. The rest of them were killed with the sword that came out of the mouth of the rider on the horse, and all the birds gorged themselves on their flesh.” {Revelation 19:11- 21}
Unbelievable, men thinking they can take on a God, the very Creator of the dust one walks on every day and quenches ones thirst by the rain? We need to be hydrated! Yes?
Further, paganism? One believes in Satan that’s a religious idea yes?
“the Black Sun” .. a fascinating story
– This force was known to the ancients under many names, and it has been called Chi, Ojas, Vril, Astral Light, Odic Forces and Orgone.
In a discussion of the 28th degree of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry – called Knight of the Sun or Prince Adept – Albert Pike said,
“There is in nature one most potent force, by means whereof a single man, who could possess himself of it, and should know how to direct it, could revolutionize and change the face of the world.”
This is the force that the Nazis and their inner occult circle were so desperately trying to unleash upon the world, for which the Vril Society had apparently groomed Hitler.

Right next to Senator John McCain at that rally was Senator Chris Murphy of Ct. He has joined the DC warmongering caucus.
The ruthenian xenophobic fascists are however anti-polish as well, because while both the dominant factions in Poland and Ruthenia want to recreate the “Intermarium” polish-lithuanian-ruthenian empire, both want to be the “top dog” in it.
There is also an interesting “small detail”: western “Ukraine” is just *southern* Ruthenia and Poland also used to include *northern* Ruthenia, that is western Belarus. The fascist xenophobe polish government want that back too.
The most funny thing that historical “Intermarium” from glory days of Polish kings like John Sobieski the Third was allowed to trive and exist thanks to something called “eternal truce” with Russian tsars. Poland just gave up stupid idea of having wars with Russia and eastern border was secured for many years. Leaders of the both contries wisely recognised that fighting with each other will make only true enemies like Sweden and Ottoman Empire stronger and it is better to team up.
Now, that Intermarium it is just Kaczynski’s wet dream. He is nobody in comparison to people like Sobieski.
And today, Ashkenazy Jewish Fascist Neocons use Ukrainian and other nations’ descendants of Euro-American Fascist sympathizers and collaborators to spearhead their rampage of hate on Russia. What a mess!
And all so easily fixed: respect Russia’s borders and customs and get on with trading honestly with her people, who are human beings in their own unique and quite attractive ways.
Hate on Russia is deadly, not to Russia but to those hating on her. Russia is doing the nations a great service: finishing off, finally, the mission of WWII, which is to rid the nations of Fascism.
– Evhen Konovalets (1891-1938) stated that his movement was ‘’waging war against mixed marriages’’, , with Poles, Russians and Jews,
– Konovelts himself was assassinated by a KGB hit-man in 1938
As I understand Francis Lee ‘’waging war against mixed marriages’’ is hallmark of fascism, but the fact KGB assasinated him (=political crimes) is not hallmark of fascism.

All very well but ‘right wing’ is not Fascism. Fascism is what we currently have in the West. A close collaboration between two large Corporations and their corrupt political stooges. This has nothing to do with ‘right wing’. ‘right wing’ is a term bandied about by Fascists and Progressives to denigrate people who believe in free markets and individual human rights. It is opposed to Statism , although it still sees a role for the State (one of its draw backs).
Furthermore the Jews you talk of are not the Jews of the Bible. They are descendants of the Khazars, a turkish race whose antecedents go back to the 7th Century. Do you think it is a coincidence most Jews were to be found in Eastern Europe, particularly Poland during the early 20th Century? So I would be a bit more reticent about using the term anti-semitism when describing acts of discrimination against these people. The only anti-semitism going on right now is in Palestine where the real native Jews are being persecuted by these people.
1. MAUP or MUAP?
2. Not ‘many SS divisions’ but SS Division Das Reich and 4. SS Polizei Panzergrenadier Division. Wolfsangel is also a combination of runes Hagal and Isa or letters H and I: the first two letters of the name Hitler.
3. Konovalets not Konovelts. Yevhen not Evhen.
4. FC Shakhtar Donetsk not Shaktar Donetsk.
5. Shuhevich not Shukeyvich
6. Nachtigall not Nachtingal
7. 82000 Ukrainians volunteered to the 14. Waffen SS Grenadier Division “Galizien”; mostly from Western Ukraine.
8. According to prominent authors and researchers ( Siemaszko, Poliszczuk ) not 90000 but over 135000 men, women and children form the Polish rural population were tortured and murdered by Western Ukrainians between 1941 and 1947.
With respect, this article contains a few misleading and I think inaccurate and self contradictory statements.
The author says that Bandera was imprisoned by the Germans during the “early period” until 1944. This is more than just an early period. Bandera was imprisoned from 1941 until September of 1944, almost the entire war. He was released when it was obvious the Germans were losing and was immediately recruited as a CIA/MI6 intelligence asset upon leaving Sachenhausen prison camp, which he, like many others survived.
The author’s explanation is that the Nazis “wanted total control”and were against an independent Ukrainian state run by Banderists. In a war, doesn’t any state want total control over territory it occupies. Doesn’t Russia want total control over Eastern Urkaine? And saying that the Germans did not want a Ukrainian state run by Banderists, is this not basically the same position that Russia has today?
The Banderists are not lying when they say they fought the Germans as well as the Russians. They did and it is well documented.
Additionally, one of Bandera’s top lieutenants, who he had intended to become Prime Minister under his imagined independent Ukrainian state after Stetsko was imprisoned by the Germans, was a Jewish man named Lev Rebet (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lev_Rebet). Rebet was also arrested and imprisoned by the Germans. In Banderist propaganda, Rebet is pictured in his striped prison outfit from his time in Sachenhausen, which he also survived.
The author also states that Tyahnybok said that “‘Ukraine was ruled by a Muscovite-Jewish mafia.’’ as iof this is reprehensible. Is it equally inflammatory to call out AIPAC and the Israel lobby that rule Washington, as this author does? The only difference would be that Tyahnybok is simply incorrect about where the ethnic mafia running Ukraine is from. It’s not Moscow, it’s Washington.
