The CIA’s Allen Dulles personally recruited Mykola Lebed, a top aide to Stepan Bandera, the leader of the fascist OUN-B, after #WWII, according to a 2010 study by the U.S. National Archives.

Even before the war was over, OSS were recruiting top #NazisInUkraine as spies…

The CIA set him up in an office in New York City from which he directed sabotage and propaganda operations on the agency’s behalf inside #Ukraine against the Soviet Union. 

The 2010 U.S. government study says:

John Loftus was the #Nazi hunter who found Lebed living in NY and was trying to prosecute him in the 80’s & 90’s, but was stonewalled at every turn by the CIA.

This 1992 NY Times article explains :

This Declassified CIA Internal memo details how the Agency would respond to the above article in the New York Times:

“No comment.” 🤐

Although the memo was declassified under the Nazi War Crimes Disclosure Act in 2004, parts of it are still redacted.

The US Attorney General personally approved the immigration of Mykola Lebed.

Arguably the highest-ranking Nazi war criminal ever to enter the US, Lebed was the head of the SB, the Ukrainian version of the Gestapo, and one of the top 20 war criminals wanted by the Soviet Union.

In the updated author’s foreword to his book “America’s Nazi Secret,” John Loftus wrote about how the New York Times knew about Lebed and protected him.

“In return for scoops, the Times washes the dirty laundry of the intelligence community. They all know how to scrub a story."

The Justice Department knew all about Lebed, too — and had no interest in prosecuting him.

Loftus continues:

Instead of banning Nazi immigrations, DOJ said the law legalized the immigration of former Nazis as long as they did not try to establish a Fourth Reich in America. Worse, that twisted interpretation was deployed to obstruct the DoJ’s Nazi hunters three decades later.

After FDR’s death, all efforts to prosecute Nazi war criminals and war profiteers practically ceased in the United States, Loftus wrote.

There was a time, not all that long ago, when even CNN told the truth about the CIA’s use of Ukranian #Nazi war criminals like Mykola Lebed, such as this article from 2021:

But then, the #UkraineRussianWar began a year ago this month — and the mainstream media suddenly developed amnesia about the #NazisInUkraine.

Here’s the full article from 2021, which hasn’t been memory-holed yet. Read it before it disappears!

In 1985, the Justice Department pawned this Ukrainian mass murderer off to Congress as an innocent leader of the Anti-Nazi resistance.

Almost everything the Justice Department has ever told Congress about Nazis in America has been a conscious and deliberate lie.

“The hunt for Nazi war criminals has been a mere public relations effort to placate Jews and WWII veterans,” Lebed’s nemesis John Loftus wrote in his book “America’s Nazi Secrets” — and sadly, he turned out to be right.

When John Loftus published his first book exposing the CIA’s dirty work with #NazisInUkraine such as Lebed, a CIA-funded propaganda newspaper The Ukranian Weekly published this forceful denial of his charges in the Nov. 28, 1982 edition. They were lying.

In that same issue of Ukrainian Weekly, we see CIA propagandist Mykola Lebed himself as a featured speaker at a conference dedicated to rewriting the history of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army’s #Nazi collaboration in #WWII.

The personal papers of Mykola Lebed were consulted for this 2022 paper published by the University of Vermont about the Ukranian nationalist movement, their #Nazi collaboration, and later, their collaboration with US and British intelligence.
