Given that the Soviets brutally murdered around 8 million Ukrainians in the 1930s, it is not surprising that many Ukrainians initially viewed the Axis forces as liberators when they invaded the USSR in 1941.

Putin is an evil thug, but the Ukrainian Government is a evil NWO Soros creation. Both things can be and are true at the same time.

For the Ukraine and many other countries in Eastern Europe, it was a choice between Hitler’s Henchmen and Stalin’s Henchmen. Trying to pretend that Hitler was the only evil guy out there, and that the Communists were the Good Guys, is stupid.

Stalin committed some of his biggest mass murders in Ukraine. Those countries caught in the middle didn’t have a lot of choices.

They also FOUGHT AGAINST THE NAZIS. And? Didn’t we cooperate and recognize the USSR ever AFTER they sided with the Nazis in the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact?

This is much ado about nothing. If our country had been conquered by the USSR we would cooperate with the Nazis too if we thought it would liberate our country. And before any idiot here gainsays that remember we did essentially the same thing by siding with the USSR AGAINST THE NAZIS.

Stalin rounded up ALL the Ukrainian grain, exported it in order to import industrial goods —modernization. He was okay starving 10 million “kulaks” to death (the Holomodor), many many more than the number of Jews that actually died of Typhus in German camps.

Most of us here would richly relish killing Russians after seeing our families liquidated by them.

Those Ukarainians were heroes, regardless of whatever uniforms they wore.

Seriously? Ukraine bans the communist party and the Simon Wiesenthal Center protests.

“The passage of a ban on Nazism and Communism equates the most genocidal regime in human history with the regime which liberated Auschwitz and helped end the reign of terror of the Third Reich,” said Wiesenthal Center director for Eastern European Affairs Dr. Efraim Zuroff.
