These were the guys who did Baba Yar weren't they?
"The campaign is strikingly similar to letters sent to the Russian authorities earlier this year, signed by members of Parliament and academia, which attempted to outlaw other Jewish religious books as inhumane and claimed that Jews had staged anti-Semitic attacks to besmirch the name of patriotic Russians. "
Ukraine is far less tolerant of this skinhead mentality that eminates from Russia.
Don't forget that the Kremlin is responsible for killing far more Jews than the Nazis - and that two thirds of those killed at Babi Yar were non Jewish Ukrainians - including the national soccor team that beat the German team desptie the warning they would be executed if they did humiliate the Germans.
PS - I don't see the Russians helping us in Afghanistan and Iraq - The Ukrainians are and would do more were it not for Yushchenko's Russian opposition.
