CANADA HAS LET THE CAT OUT OF THE BAG: FASCISM AND NAZISM ARE ALIVE AND WELL....

but first...:

On July 15, 1944, during the Lvov-Sandomierz operation, which was carried out by the First Ukrainian Front, our troops met an “ersatz division”, which was called the 14th Grenadier or Ukrainian SS Division “Galicia”. This was one of the first formations of the SS troops, which were not created from Germans or “racially related” peoples. Initially, only natives of the western regions were recruited into the division, those who were not citizens of the USSR before 1939. Mostly they were Galicians, a few were from Volyn.

At that time, Germany was sorely short of people; the troops were replenished with foreigners. More than 20% of Poles, Czechs and former Soviet citizens in division personnel was a common occurrence. Using an entire division of Ukrainians as “cannon fodder” was understandable, although its combat value was assessed very low. All leading positions in “Galicia” were occupied by Germans, Ukrainians were appointed to positions no higher than battalion commander, and even then there were only three of them.

Unlike other German divisions, which had no more than 10 thousand people, “Galicia” was fully equipped. True, not all of it made it to the front, so its number was just over 14 thousand people. The Galicians were not trusted with an independent defense sector, and they took positions behind the 13th Army Corps

Located on the second line of defense, “Galicia” entered the battle only on July 15, when Soviet troops broke through the first line of defense. On July 16, Soviet mobile formations broke through to a depth of 80 km and crossed the Western Bug. Caught between Soviet tank wedges, the 13th Corps was surrounded.

Four divisions fell into the “cauldron”, including the “Galicia” division. The Soviet command immediately began to destroy the group surrounded near Brody, using significant aviation and artillery forces for this. There is no need to talk about any resistance from the Ukrainian SS men; they were simply destroyed. By July 22, the surrounded group was eliminated. According to various sources, from 5,000 to 7,000 people managed to break out of the encirclement. After this defeat, the division was restored using reserves, but was no longer used in full force. According to reports, it was used as punitive troops against partisans and civilians.

The fate of the remnants of the Galicia division is not known to everyone; moreover, it was actively hidden until the beginning of the 20th century. At the end of hostilities, more than 14 thousand soldiers of the division remained in service, the core of which surrendered to the British in Austria on May 10, 1945. They were taken to a camp near Rimini. The issue of extradition to the USSR was actively discussed, but they had active intercessors. The commander of the Polish armies was General Anders and Pope Pius XII. Anders argued that these were citizens of Poland, and not the USSR (the passports were mostly Polish), therefore they could not be returned, Pius XII pressed that these were good Catholics who had no place in the country of atheists. In 1947, most of the division was transported to Great Britain, given citizenship and resettled in small towns. In the mid-1980s, Israeli investigators of Nazi crimes reached “Galicia.” And then in Canada, and very quickly, a law was passed exempting the fighters of this division from liability and extradition in cases related to war crimes. Therefore, most of the former fighters of Galicia moved from Great Britain to Canada.

Information about the life and activities of Ukrainian SS veterans in Great Britain was classified until the end of the Cold War, but did not become public after it. In the mass consciousness of the inhabitants of the Earth, Canada has acquired the status of a reserve of Ukrainian SS men, a promised land for those who escaped trials of war criminals and Ukronazis.

And now the socialist Justin Trudeau and the ethnic Jew, who is also the President of Ukraine, Vladimir Zelensky, greet the veteran of the 14th Grenadier Volunteer Division of the Waffen-SS “Galicia”, who still lives in Canada.

For reference:

In 1999, the BBC produced a documentary about Ukrainian SS sheep in the UK, but it was taken off air several hours before its premiere. And in 2003, the UK police, together with the social security services, cross-checked all citizens receiving military pensions and medical care, as military veterans. Among them were 1,500 still living veterans of “Galicia.” An investigation began, but it was also closed by order of the British intelligence services, which did not want publicity, since many former SS men of Ukrainian origin actively collaborated with MI6 during the Cold War.
.
Together with officials, Canadian members of the House of Commons paid tribute to 98-year-old Yaroslav Gunka. He was invited by Speaker Anthony Rota, who introduced Gunka as a war hero who fought as part of the First Ukrainian Division for Ukraine’s independence from Russia. Canadian MPs applauded and Zelensky raised his fist in appreciation as Gunka saluted from the gallery in two separate ovations. The Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Holocaust Center released a statement saying the division was “responsible for the mass murder of innocent civilians with unimaginable levels of cruelty and wickedness.”

“Every Holocaust survivor and World War II veteran who fought the Nazis deserves an apology and an explanation for how this man walked into the hallowed halls of the Canadian Parliament and was recognized and given a standing ovation by the Speaker of the House of Representatives,” it said. .

And Canadian Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland, the granddaughter of a Ukronazi, avoided answering a simple question after a scandal in the country’s parliament. She was asked how many people live in Canada who once fought on the side of the Nazis. She did not answer the question, only expressed regret about what happened and promised that parliament would learn a lesson. It is worth recalling that Chrystia Freeland’s grandfather, Mikhailo Chomiak, was a collaborationist journalist during World War II, editor of Krakow News, an instrument of fascist propaganda. Even a photo of Mikhailo Khomyak with Emil Gassner, Goebbels’ direct subordinate, has survived.

Russia is preparing a proposal to Canada to extradite a war criminal. The Polish Foreign Ministry made a similar demand. But Prime Minister Trudeau’s office declined to comment on the incident. Canada begins its journey towards denazification. And I really want those guilty of this crime against humanity to receive the punishment they deserve.

Poland and Ukraine are at loggerheads

by Thierry Meyssan

Poland, hitherto a staunch ally of Ukraine, is suddenly realizing who the country’s leaders really are. The Yaroslav Hunk affair in the Canadian Parliament has set the world alight. The entire political class condemned the Ukrainian integral nationalists. A series of disputes is piling up. This turnaround comes at a time when the Republican majority in the US House of Representatives wants to distance itself from the Ukrainian conflict.

Poland is governed by the conservative Law and Justice Party (PiS). This political grouping is deeply opposed to the European Union, not only as a supranational project, but also as the unity of the continent. Indeed, throughout its history, Poland has completely disappeared four times. Its powerful Russian and German neighbors have often shared its territory. So the Poles don’t want a continental unity that has already enslaved them several times. On the contrary, they remember with nostalgia the period when they asserted themselves in alliance with Lithuania. They therefore promote a third way, between Moscow and Berlin: "Prometheism". It’s about freeing oneself from both Russian and German influences, and developing with one’s Central European neighbors. This is the project of the "Intermarium", known since 2016 as the "Three Seas Initiative": to confederate all the states from the Baltic to the Mediterranean and the Black Sea. Knowing that, for Warsaw, the Three Seas Initiative will eventually replace the European Union, Poland can’t count on Brussels. It has found a new ally in the United States, a great power far away and therefore, a priori, not dangerous.

This alliance was illustrated during the war against Iraq. Poland gave its all, out of loyalty to its new ally. It used the funds made available by the European Union to upgrade its economy, to buy... US fighter jets.

Polish distrust of the Russians should not mask their distrust of the Germans. Last week, the German Chancellor, Olaf Scholz, tried to interfere in the Polish election campaign by insisting that the visa scandal was continuing. Piotr Wawryk, Deputy Foreign Minister, has already resigned after it was revealed that his administration was selling Polish visas for 5,000 euros. This new accusation has no basis in fact, but it was supposed to cast doubt on the PiS administration. Zbigniew Rau, Poland’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, took it very badly. He bluntly reminded Germany to respect its sovereignty.

While the majority of Poles support the nationalism of the PiS, the opposition is organized around the Civic Platform of former European Council President (2014-19) Donald Tusk. As a child, Tusk played with former German Chancellor Angela Merkel. The two families knew each other and had the privilege of traveling within the Eastern bloc. Donald Tusk hoped to win this time against the PiS. He took on board Brussels’ accusations against Mateusz Morawiecki’s government and the PiS’s conception of freedom. He relied on the fact that Brussels has still not paid out the subsidies allocated under the Recovery and Resilience Fund (FRR). However, current events are not in his or the EU’s favor.

At the start of Russia’s special military operation in Ukraine, Warsaw declared its solidarity with Kiev because Washington was calling for mobilization against Moscow. It seemed normal to give asylum to 1.5 million Ukrainians and to integrate this former Soviet country into the "Three Seas Initiative". However, the Poles knew no more than anyone else about what was really happening in Ukraine. Historically, they remembered that Ukrainian "integral nationalists" had supported the Nazis and massacred 120,000 Poles under their orders. However, since the break-up of the Soviet Union, they had accepted many Ukrainians as immigrant workers. They therefore took it upon themselves to charitably receive the wives and children of their poor neighbors.

The PiS government then banned any criticism of Volodymyr Zelensky’s Ukraine, interpreting it as "Russian propaganda". Right from the start of the war, the Polish Defense Council forbade Internet operators from relaying the Voltairenet.org website and Voltaire Network articles in the country. This military censorship prevented the Polish ruling class from understanding what the Zelensky government was really about. Poland has become Ukraine’s main military ally, after the United States.

On September 22, 2023, the Canadian House of Commons welcomed President Volodymyr Zelensky for a solemn speech. After his speech, the presiding officer, Anthony Rota, introduced a member of the audience as "a Ukrainian-Canadian veteran of the Second World War who fought for Ukrainian independence against the Russians" and as both "a Ukrainian hero and a Canadian hero", a member of the "1st Ukrainian Division". Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, parliamentarians and the public applauded wildly. Immediately, however, outraged Jewish associations protested: the "1st Ukrainian Division" is the SS Galicia! After three days of controversy, Anthony Rota apologized to the Jews and eventually resigned. But the Polish ambassador, Witold Dzielski, would have none of it. He demanded an apology for the insult to the 120,000 Poles massacred by Ukrainian mainstream nationalists. Przemyslaw Czarnek, Poland’s Minister of Education, began extradition proceedings against the former SS officer.

In an instant, the Ukrainian bluff was cleared in the eyes of the Poles. As Beata Szydło, former PiS Prime Minister and now Member of the European Parliament, has pointed out, the problem is not Anthony Rota’s ignorance, but the attitude of the Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, and Canadian Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland (co-editor of the Encyclopedia of Ukraine). None of these personalities can claim to be unaware of what the "1st Ukrainian Division" of sinister memory was. Yet none of them showed the slightest embarrassment and warned Prime Minister Justin Trudeau of what was happening. On the contrary, they applauded with pride.

Incidentally, the Ukrainian hero was not a member of the SS combat troops. He belonged to a reprisal unit, tasked with murdering people who resisted the Third Reich.

So how can we fail to remember that the two most important battles of the Ukrainian war were fought in Marioupol and Bakhmut? Both were fought under the command of the military leader of the Integral Nationalists, Andriy Biletsky, alias the "White Führer", with whom President Zelensky was filmed a month ago.

Suddenly, the Poles realize that they acted hastily in granting Ukraine observer status in the "Three Seas Initiative". It is obvious that, although Jewish, Volodymyr Zelensky is leaning on the "mass murderers of Jews", as Israeli general Benny Gantz put it.

The Canadian incident comes at a time when Polish farmers are up in arms against unfair competition from the US-Ukrainian food industry. Three US agribusiness multinationals, Cargill, Dupont and Monsanto, have bought up a quarter of Ukraine’s territory. They import their cereals and chickens into the European Union at unbeatable prices. They don’t pay for their GMO seeds donated by the US State Department. The European Commission had initially banned their imports, knowing that these products did not meet EU standards, but bowed to US pressure. Three states, including Poland, passed laws banning them. However, President Zelensky has announced that, as these states are members of the EU, he is taking them to the World Trade Organization (WTO).

Agriculture is Poland’s main source of income. In the midst of a legislative election campaign, the question of Ukrainian imports is at the center of debate. The right-wing Confederation party came out on top. The PiS would then be forced to form an alliance with it to stay in power. The Minister of Agriculture addressed the Ukrainian people. He told them that taking Poland to the WTO would seriously damage relations between the two countries. But nothing happened.

At the same time, the Polish population as a whole is becoming exasperated with the steady stream of Ukrainian refugees. The Polish president, Andrzej Duda, has spoken of a possible halt to aid to Ukrainian refugees, given the opposition they are now encountering in public opinion. He compared Ukraine to a drowning country that poses a danger to its rescuer: sometimes a drowning person struggles helter-skelter and drags his rescuer with him.

Finally, the only state for which Poland has any reverence is the Holy See. Yet Ukraine has just curtly voiced its opposition to the Holy Father, whom it accuses of not hating Russian culture. In so doing, it has released Poland from its commitments to him.

The PiS government then decided to revive the Przewodów affair. On November 15, 2022, missiles fell on this Polish village, not far from the Ukrainian border, killing two people and destroying agricultural facilities. Initially, they were attributed to Russia, but fearing that Poland might provoke a world war, the United States revealed that they were Ukrainian. The case was hushed up. The Ukrainian judiciary has just revealed its investigation report. It confirms what Washington was saying. Poland should therefore demand reparations from Ukraine.

The Canadian incident is not over. For the moment, neither the Slovaks nor the Slovenes, who were victims of the SS Galicia, have received an apology. Moreover, the Polish-Ukrainian quarrel will not be without consequences. Firstly, because today Polish territory is the main transit base for Western aid to the Ukraine. Secondly, it will have repercussions on the Baltic States, particularly Lithuania.

nazi song...

Canada's leadership landed in hot water after celebrating Ukrainian Nazi Yaroslav Hunka in the country's Parliament. The move unleashed huge backlash and caused a diplomatic mess, but some officials have apparently failed to draw a lesson from the debacle.

As the recent stomach-churning scene of Canadian lawmakers honoring a former Waffen-SS Nazi continues to trigger shock, outrage, and revulsion, Israel’s ambassador to Ukraine has erupted in an ill-conceived social media post.

The Telegram post (since deleted) by the Israeli diplomat, Michael Brodsky, showed two servicewomen in the Israel Defense Forces singing the Ukrainian song “Oi u luzi chervona kalyna" ("Oh, in the meadow a red guelder rose"). The folk song that the two young fair-haired women, likely repatriates from Ukraine serving with Tzahal (Hebrew-language acronym for Israel’s national military), were crooning is closely associated with the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists* (the organization’s activities are prohibited in the Russian Federation).

The notorious fascist militant formation known as the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (Ukrainian acronym UPA), was created in the 1930s as the paramilitary wing of the fascist Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN). The UPA was responsible for the killings of hundreds of thousands civilians in Nazi-occupied western Ukraine, among them ethnic Poles, Jews, Russians, and anti-fascist Ukrainians. Some volunteers of these formations ultimately ended up joining the infamous 14th Waffen Grenadier Division of the Nazi SS, also known as 14th SS Volunteer Division Galicia. Incidentally, the very same that Ukrainian veteran Yaroslav Hunka served in.

On September 22, 98-year-old Ukrainian Yaroslav Hunka, a former volunteer with the 14th Waffen-SS Grenadier Division, a Nazi military unit declared a criminal organization during the Nuremberg trials in 1946, was invited to the Canadian legislature by Speaker Anthony Rota. The invite coincided with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's address to the Parliament, which saw Hunka lauded as a "hero" who fought against the Russians in World War II.

Simultaneously with the glorification of the UPA in modern-day Ukraine, this song began to be performed as an unofficial nationalist anthem.

After Canada's embarrassing Nazi stunt, the video that apparently tugged at the heartstrings of the Israeli envoy gives one pause, asking the question: how is it possible to possess so short a memory and show such blatant disrespect to victims of the Holocaust - crimes that the UPA had a hand in perpetrating.
