Black Bandana

Czemu Zełeński w zasadzie to robi? To jest jakaś forma testowania polskiej i międzynarodowej reakcji? Totalna ignorancja? Potrzebuje za wszelką cenę zwrócić uwagę na Ukrainę? Może za mało ma problemów i szuka nowych? Czy naprawdę jest na to jakieś logiczne uzasadnienie? 🤔

London vs Moscow. Easy choice.

Days after honoring the notorious Nazi collaborator Andriy Melnyk, Zelensky has now granted the honorary title "Heroes of the UPA” to Ukraine’s Special Forces. The UPA was a Ukrainian militia in WW2 which was formed by the collaborator and ally of Nazi Germany, Stepan Bandera. Bandera was a Ukrainian fascist who partnered with Nazi Germany and helped it implement its "final solution" in Ukraine, until he was arrested in 1941 and sent back to Germany. His UPA was responsible for one of the worst genocides during WW2, the Wolyn genocide, killing over 100,000 Poles. The Ukrainian UPA tortured their victims with unimaginable bestiality. Even the Germans were shocked at their level of excessive sadism and cruelty. Victims were scalped. They had their noses, lips and ears cut off. They had their eyes gouged out and hands cut off and they had their heads squashed in clamps. Woman had their breasts cut off and pregnant woman were stabbed in the belly. Men had their genitals sliced off with sickles. Professor Timothy Snyder, one of the most pro Ukraine Western Historians, wrote that Bandera's OUN (which later became the “Ukrainian Insurgent Army” or UPA): “...helped the Germans organize murderous pogroms of Jews, Poles and other minorities. In so doing, they were advancing a German policy, but one that was consistent with their own program of Ukrainian ethnic purity. Bandera aimed to make of Ukraine a one-party fascist dictatorship without national minorities.” To put this into perspective, this would be a akin to Friedrich Merz naming the German special forces "Heroes of Dirlewanger" after the worst and most notorious Waffen SS Nazi criminals. Reacting to the news, Poland's former PM Leszek Miller stated that Zelensky's decision is "an open spit in the face of every Pole whose grandfathers, grandmothers, uncles, and aunts were hacked to death with axes, pitchforks, and saws in Volhynia and Eastern Galicia."
