INTERESTING UKRAINIAN HISTORY
Ukraine rates the 4th in the number of people recognized as “Righteous Among the Nations” for saving Jews during the Holocaust.
The history of the Jews in Ukraine goes back over a thousand years. Jewish communities have existed in the territory of Ukraine from the time of the Kievan Rus’ (late 9th to mid-13th century). Some of the most important Jewish religious and cultural movements, from Hasidism to Zionism, rose either fully or to an extensive degree in the territory of modern Ukraine. According to the World Jewish Congress, the Jewish community in Ukraine constitutes the third-largest in Europe and the fifth-largest in the world.
In the UKRAINIAN PEOPLE’S REPUBLIC (1917-1920), Yiddish was declared a state language, along with Ukrainian and Russian.
At that time, the Jewish National Union was created and the community was granted an autonomous status. Yiddish was used on Ukrainian currency in this same period, between 1917 and 1920.
Before World War II, slightly less than one-third of Ukraine’s urban population consisted of Jews; they were the largest national minority in Ukraine.
Total civilian losses during World War II and the German occupation of Ukraine are estimated at seven million. More than one million Jews were shot and killed by the Einsatzgruppen [paramilitary death squads of Nazi Germany that were responsible for mass-murder, primarily by shooting, during World War II (1939–1945) in German-occupied Europe.]
As ordered by Nazi leader Adolf Hitler, the Wehrmacht cooperated with the Einsatzgruppen, providing logistical support for their operations, and participated in the mass murders. Historian Raul Hilberg estimates that between 1941 and 1945 the Einsatzgruppen, related agencies, and foreign auxiliary personnel murdered more than two million people, including 1.3 million of the 5.5 to 6 million Jews murdered during the Holocaust.
After the close of World War II, 24 senior leaders of the Einsatzgruppen were prosecuted in the Einsatzgruppen trial in 1947–48, charged with crimes against humanity and war crimes.
BTW, Golda Muir was born in Ukraine, she immigrated to the U.S. as a child with her family.
Are you saying God is evil? Putin’s invasions of the Republic of Georgia and Ukraine are evil without any shadow of a Doubting Thomas. I have family and friends in the Donbas that can tell you just how atrocity-laden his invasions are.
“Is that too much truth for you?”
No truth.
So sorry, time to ghost you again...
It is not Ze’s wife but Kira Rudick, a Ukie lawmaker, who grew up in the US and known as a fraudster in the Silicone Valley. She escaped to Ukraine and bought a place in the legislature which means immunity from extradiction and prosecution .
Your more than welcome. :)
Free Republic is a great place to gather information.
Just excuse those folks that like to cyber-bully!
Luke 23:34 is helpful for me.
It seems my other replies did not come through. Sorry. I need sleep.
Not according to your own link at Militaryland.net. Perhaps you should read some of the links you post.
Russian forces bypassed the center of Marinka and advanced north of the town, partly capturing a farm in the vicinity.That's a really impressive effort by Russia. A farm and a block of houses. Russia might have reduced its KIA ratio to a acceptable 5 Russian to 1 Ukrainian. Ukraine is on the run now.Russian troops entered the eastern part of dachas area south of Vuhledar
So who didn't read before posting, or doesn't care as long as they get their digs in? The way invasion backing posters try to disrupt threads is really childish.
2. We didn't know you were in to that kind of photoshop fetish.
This guy sure churns out the bullshit
Give him that
In a bitter irony Ukrainians killed plenty Jews and poles with no help from anyone
The first SS brigades extensively catalogued it to prevent themselves from being accused early in the war
And how they treated the poles in western Ukraine is Comanche level butchery carried out by this hero Bandera
They like blood
Watch your language when you talk to a lady. I thought even Mississippi white trash understood as much.
I agree. I am waiting for Russia to provide the coup de grace and Zelensky is part of it.
The Ukrainians filmed their own soldiers executing Russians with a bullet to the back of the head. And the soldiers/Ukrainians don’t dispute the footage. But here on FR, all day long the propagandists sing songs of their people wherein everything is opposite reality.
Every reference to Bandera inevitably mentions blood and gore. I didn’t know they liked blood. I’m hesitant to read of Bandera - I like to sleep nights.
Zelensky turned down Trump’s request that Biden’s crimes be investigated (during an election cycle in the USA) because (here’s a funny thing) it’s a basic tenet of international diplomacy that leaders of countries shouldn’t get involved at all in the elections of other countries.
Russia clearly ignores that memo. The USA does. So does China. But for the most part, other countries respect the principle. Over here in the UK they try every election to get senior politicians to opine on who they’d like to see in the White House; the more senior they are the more they refuse to take the bait.
Trump didn’t just ask Zelenskyy to signpost his opinion, he asked Z on national television to sabotage Biden.
No matter how much Biden deserved to be taken down, that was a completely idiotic stunt by Trump - who, as we all know, was all for giving Ukraine the tools to defend itself from Putin.
What a stupid thing to do. Be Z’s pal in private, then humiliate him on TV by asking him to interfere in American elections, then watch as brain dead conspiracy theorists assume that the only possible reason Z squirmed on camera before saying no was because he was working for the Biden Mafia.
