Canada's 'Nazi scandal' has been sitting in plain sight for decades. In 2010, the #Ukrainian Canadian Congress tried do draw a big equals sign between soldiers and others killed fighting the Nazis, and Ukrainian #Nazi collaborators who killed them. #Hunka

The 'First Division of the Ukrainian National Army' referred to above is the 14th #WaffenSS #Galizien Division. Below is their commanding officer, Friz Freitag. Fritz kept a diary, reducing his mass murder to such banalities as "114 prisoners taken, 283 Jews shot." Image
The Canadian state in the 1940s and 50s WANTED #Nazis, to go after #socialists in the working class. Upon arrival, that's just what the Nazis did. They attacked workers meetings across the country. On October 8th, 1950 they bombed Toronto's #Ukrainian Labour Temple .

The #RCMP dropped SS membership as a barrier to entry to Canada in 1951 - AFTER the #WaffenSS members bombed the Labour Temple. Why? Canadian state #anticommunism. The file on the case is still secret, and the suspects went on to successful careers. #Hunka is not unique. Image
Canada's 1948 Standing Committee on Immigration and Labour made explicit the desire of the Canadian state for #anticommunist immigrants. Senator Thomas Crerar: "the displaced persons who come to Canada are exercising a very healthy anti-communistic influence.” #Hunka Senate of Canada. King's Printer For Canada. Proceedings of the Standing Committee on Immigration and Labour. 29th January and 4th February, 1948.

🧵There is a political split in the petty bourgeois Palestinian leadership, and some elements are desperate to try to cover it up and silence debate about it, using moralizing identity politics to prevent anyone from elaborating a political analysis of it.
Palestinian journalist Motaz has issued a filthy statement blaming Palestinian resistance for Israel's genocidal actions. He has seemingly aligned himself with Fatah, just as the imperialist powers are promoting the quislings of Fatah as 'legitimate' Palestinian leaders.
Canadian Foreign Minister Melanie Joly flew to Israel this week to meet with Netanyahu, and then to Ramallah to be photographed, along with Zionist MP Ya'ara Sacks, with Fatah leader Mahmoud Abbas. Fatah is being prepared by imperialism to suppress the Palestinian resistance.

Imperialism lurches toward escalation because there simply are no more young Ukrainian men to draft into its war against Russia. There was a massive decline in Ukrainian births after the dissolution of the USSR, and most Ukrainian men aged 20 to 35 are either dead, or fled.
Ukraine has a massive surplus - of babushkas, due to WWII and its aftermath. Note the approaching third demographic crisis. The murder by imperialist war of most of the young males now threatens the very existence of Ukrainian people. Image
The Ukrainian population bulge in the graph represents Ukrainians born during the Soviet period. The Soviet Union produced lots of Ukrainians. Capitalist restoration, Ukrainian nationalism and fascism have, when combined, murdered more Ukrainians. Image

🧵The Israelis and imperialists are deliberately starving Palestinians in #Gaza, just as the Nazis developed the ‘Hunger Plan’ to starve the Jews and the Soviet working class in WWII. If Zionism looks like Nazism, it’s because Zionists are copying #Nazi policies to conquer Gaza.
Image

Fact: the State of Israel has decided on a policy of #starvation against the population of #Gaza. The openly genocidal statements of Israeli leaders are a simple matter of public record. They are criminal self-indictments, which cannot be reinterpreted post facto, or taken back.

Retired #IDF General Giora Eiland described this plan in November 2023. “Severe epidemics in the southern Strip will bring victory closer and reduce fatalities among IDF soldiers.” Starving people are too weak to fight their occupiers. (See alt text)

Compare Eiland’s justification with those of the Nazis for their starvation plans. Eiland: “There is no reason why the Hamas leaders won’t surrender if the population lacks water and fuel and epidemics come and endanger their family members. As long as Israeli captives are held, don’t speak to us about humanitarian aspects,” Alfred Rosenberg, key architect of the Holocaust: “We see absolutely no reason for any obligation on our part to feed the Russian people with the products of that surplus-territory. We know that this is a harsh necessity, bare of any feelings.”

🧵Today we recall the Revisionist #Zionist movement of Vladimir Jabotinsky, political ancestor of the criminal Netanyahu. Like the the Ukrainian nationalists, the dependency of the Zionist bourgeois and petty bourgeois on world imperialism drove them towards fascism and genocide. Vladimir Jabotinsky
Jewish workers and peasants had an alternative to Zionism – revolutionary socialism. The conquest of power by the working class created the basis to destroy antisemitism, which arose historically, and can only be destroyed by workers acting consciously in the historical process. Bolshevik Jewish newspaper, Der Emes (The Truth.) Lenin "It is not the Jews who are the enemies of the working people. The enemies of the workers are the capitalists of all countries. Among the Jews there are working people, and they form the majority. They are our brothers, who, like us, are oppressed by capital; they are our comrades in the struggle for socialism. Among the Jews there are kulaks, exploiters and capitalists, just as there are among the Russians, and among people of all nations. The capitalists strive to sow and foment hatred between workers of different faiths, differ...
1921. Jabotinsky made a secret pact with Maxim Slavinsky, ambassador of Ukrainian pogromist Simon Petliura, to send Zionist police with a 15,000 strong Ukrainian nationalist army, backed by France, to attack the Soviet Union, moving Jews out of Soviet Ukraine. The plan failed. Ovruch Pogrom (February 1919). Photographer unknown. Wikimedia https://archive.ph/HIAgq "After independent Ukraine was defeated by the Red Army, Petliura found refuge in Poland, which had fought against Soviet Russia. He planned to return to Ukraine at the head of an army of exiled expatriates. Jabotinsky suggested that Petliura enlist units of Jewish soldiers. Clearly Jabotinsky's rabid anti-Communism was one reason behind the proposal. Publicly, he rationalized the offer by claiming that the Jewish divisions in Petliura's army would defend the Jewish population from possible pogro...

🧵To hear Zionists, the Oct 7th Palestinian uprising against illegal Israeli occupation is akin to ‘original sin.’ Each act of #Zionist barbarism is justified by the ‘bloodguilt’ of #Hamas. They are copying #Nazi propaganda techniques used against the Poles and Great Britain. 'Documents of Polish Bloodguilt' was a 459 pg document of atrocity propaganda produced by the Nazis in 1940 to retroactively justify the Nazi invasion of Poland on September 1, 1939 and Nazi crimes against the Poles and the Jews. it can be downloaded from the Internet Archive at the following link: https://ia902907.us.archive.org/2/items/nslarchiv_201910/B%C3%BCcher/B%C3%BCcher_Bis%201945/Auswaertiges%20Amt%20-%20Dokumente%20polnischer%20Grausamkeit%20%281940%2C%20459%20S.%2C%20Scan%29.pdf
On Sept 3 1939, Germans in #Bydgoszcz Poland attacked a Polish military barracks, coordinated by German military intelligence. In response, the Polish majority of the town rose up and violently resisted. Approximately 400 German civilians and soldiers were killed over two days. llustrierter Beobachter Nr. 37/1939, S. 1428. As cited in: Arani, Miriyam Y. Fotografische Selbst-und Fremdbilder von Deutschen und Polen im Reichsgau Wartheland, pg 205. Verlad Dr. Kovac, Berlin. 2008
Historian Ian Kershaw writes: “For German propaganda, the attacks on ethnic Germans were exploited as an apparent justification for a policy of 'ethnic cleansing' that had surpassed in its first days anything that could be regarded as retaliation.” (see Alt text for full quote) Image: Illustrierter Beobachter 39/1939, S. 1498 as cited in Arani, Miriyam Y.

Today I’m going to begin to describe how the Organization of #Ukrainian Nationalists, (#OUN) progressed from publishing antisemitic articles in its theoretical journal, Rozbudova Natsii (Building the Nation) to genocidal incitement, from 1928 (left image) to 1941 (right image).
Rozbudova Natsii, #4, 1928. (author’s comments in bracketed text) Contents 1. D. Andrievsky – Steps towards construction 2. Jacquito Trezziono – a (sympathetic) Philosophical Political Assessment of Fascism 3. Mykola Stsiborskyi – Echo 4. Dr. Volodymyr Galan – How to understand Americanization 5. I. Stobar – The Imponderable (an argument against rationalism) 6. E. Konovalets – For a history of the Ukrainian Sich Rifleman in the Ukrainian Revolution 7. Official Notifications 8. Official Business of the OUN Chronicles (of Ukrainians) 9. Ukrainians in the USSR 10. Under Polish rule 11. ...
Lviv, June July 1941. Ukrainian People! --Until now, we have been operating underground. There we prepared for the harvest and repelled the attacks of the enemy who wanted to destroy us and You. Now we ascend. We are starting the armed struggle. The Moscow prison of peoples -- the USSR is collapsing. The leadership of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists announced on all Ukrainian lands the INDEPENDENT UKRAINIAN STATE. But this Independence must be defended in battles. By order of Stepan Bandera, on the order of the Regional Command of the OUN, the first columns of fighters - sol...
How was the #Holocaust in #Ukraine ideologically prepared? How did demands for an 'independent' Ukrainian state lead to its destruction by German #imperialism? Due to the large body of evidence, we will divide our exposé. Here we deal with the period 1928 to Spring 1933.
Rozbudova Natsii Masthead, 1928, #1.
Ukrainian Nationalists welcome Nazi military parade. The banner reads, "Slava Bandera" in Ukrainian, and "Cheers to the German Volk... "
The OUN had been preparing itself ideologically to commit genocide and ethnic cleansing in Ukraine since 1928. These preparations began in the first issue of R.N. which came out openly against democracy, against the Soviet Union and socialism. Our Position. 1928 #1. He criticizes the older nationalist generation "These are the remnants of either underground political work under the burden of the Tsarist regime, or the remnants of the socialist and democratic psychosis that gripped Europe in the 19th century, or the offspring of the parliamentary system of the former Austrian Empire, or the result of the hypnosis of the Moscow-Tatar satrapy, which occupied one sixth of the globe , and the red imperialism of Moscow, which is competing for mastery over the whole world. All our existing ideologies and allegiances have their ro...
