About Antisemitism and Revisionism in Ukraine

"In some regions of Ukraine, the rise of anti-Russian racism seems, once again, to be deeply linked with the rise of Anti-semitism. 

The following recent event was reported by the Union of Councils for Jews In The Former Soviet Union:

A member of the Ukrainian Chamber of Deputies explained very seriously, publically, the difference between a Jew and a "Youtre" (Kike) and the difference between a Russian and a "Russkof (Moskal). 

This deputy, Oleg Tyagnybok, had already
done similar provocative actions, in September 2005,  when he started a petition requesting an investigation into "organized Jewry" . This petition had also been signed by another member of the Chamber of Deputies, Ivan Spodarenko - also head of the so-called Silski Visti newspaper .

Oleg Tyagnybok was one of the leaders of the "orange revolution" 
He was excluded on the late  from the party of Viktor Yushchenko (Yushchenko) .

As for the Silski Visti, this newspaper was recently awarded a medal from Viktor Yushchenko  for its "quality journalism".

 Many Jewish organizations had been whistleblowing for months: 
Anti-Semitism is back in Ukraine, in its most extreme form, 
and to the highest rank of political power. 


 ( ... ) [The author , Claude Rainaudi , explain that he wrote about this article by 'accident' since he was originally looking informations about the Ukrainian Gas crisis of 2006 .] (...)
 
During this research, a recurring element caught my attention, the outrageous anti-Semitic and anti-Russian public political positions in this country as well as the support given by the  leaders of the "orange revolution" ( who are now governing Ukraine ) to such positions 


To give an idea of ​​the situation, the largest private university in Ukraine, The Graduate School of Administration in Kyiv, organized last June, a conference calling for the expulsion of Jews .These conference was attended by representatives of the governing ‘Orange’ party. The Israeli website "antisemitism.org.il" broadcasted this information as : "anti-Semitic Conference at The Administration College in Kiev"


  ( ... ) [The author explain that he doesn't understand why these facts are not being reported by the European newspapers , he explain that he don't want to analyse the situation in detail but only whish to express his astonishment . He also underlines that one shouldn't consider that not all ukrainians are antisemitic since  Tyagnybok was finally fired from its party ] (...)


'Svoboda' Neo-Nazi demonstration in Lvov


"400,000 Ukrainian Jews have invaded Ukraine among the Nazi troops"

But I think it is also important to note that in the recent past, and while they were outrageously refered to by the U.S. as "democrats" (!) Viktor Yushchenko (Yushchenko), Alexander Moroz and Yulia Timochenka the Key figures of the Orange Revolution in Ukraine have formally defended the Silski Visti newspaper,while it has just published , after numerous anti-Semitic articles, a prime piece of revisionist propaganda.
Indeed, in their edition of September 30, 2003, The Silski Visti published an
anti-Semitic article whose content was almost surreal  , entitled 'The Jews in Ukraine today, the reality without myth'. The article claimed, among other things, that not less than 400,000 Ukrainian Jews  had joined the Nazi troops to invade Ukraine and ... to steal the gold from the Ukrainians. This issue came after a tiresome litany of anti-Semitic positions, including, for example, the rehabilitation of the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion" and some paraphrases of Mein Kampf in several issues .

A Complaint was filed by Alexander Chlayen, head of the Ukrainian Anti-Fascist Committee and a respected member of the Jewish community. The anti-Semitic newspaper was prosecuted for incitement to racial hatred, Because the rarity of this accusation in Ukraine, it gave it a certain solemnity. While trying to clear itself by claiming that the article's author, Vasily Iaremenko had paid the article as a commercial , Vasily Grouzine, one of the leaders of Silski Visti turned the screw even further. Not only the number of 400,000 Jews voluntarily enlisted into the Nazi hordes (not only in Ukraine ...) seemed to him "not far from reality," but he justified the article in question - and all the similars articles they published - by claiming : "I think the intention of Zionism is that Jews lead the world. "


(...) [The author explain that , when questioned about this , some of the leaders of the 'Orange' revolution told that they had thought that the amount of 400,000 Nazi Jews was a bit exagerated but that they couldn't know every bit of WWII History .](...)


On 30 January 2004, Viktor Yushchenko, Yulia Timoshenko and Alexander Moroz came to the aid of the anti-Semitic rag by issuing a statement titled "Keep your dirty hands off the Silski Visti" and called their troops to take to the streets in order to support this newspaper , flanked on the occasion by members of the UNA-UNSO and his leader , Andrei Shkil .

Here is what can be read on the websites of these organisations : "The next millennium will witness the escalation of fighting between two opposing worlds - the Aryans and the Semitics - between the forces of good and evil. Ukraine, under the leadership of UNA-UNSO will be at the vanguard of the Aryan civilization. That the 'Youtres' are servants of the devil is evident from the Bible, the Talmud, the Torah, the Protocols of the Elders of Zion and throughout the history of the 'youtre' people. Who created the Satanic teachings of Communism? Who built this Empire of Evil that what was the USSR? Who were the members of the Cheka? Who destroyed the churches, killed by starvation our people and destroyed the elite of Ukraine? ... The Germans were right when they organized their book burning (sic) "... . Etc..

Victor Yushchenko, according to an article by Ana Shinder in Ukraine Now , installed  on its website a forum entitled "Beware of the Jews" .
convicted in first instance, the Silski Visti were acquitted on appeal, under pressure from the street .
