“HOW THE HOLOCAUST BEGAN” used Nazi film of the mass murder of Jews in Estonia and Ukraine in 1941 within three months of the German attack on Russia. It also showed crowds of very happy Estonians and Ukrainians welcoming the armed invaders with flowers.
It also showed Estonians watching with approval the murders.
It interviewed a 94-year-old woman, the sole survivor of the 700 Jews in her village, whose houses were taken over by her neighbours.
Schoolchildren, former classmates and playmates. together with their parents, helped round up their fellow-citizens who happened to be Jews and helped with the murder.
The number of Germans organising the murders there, and in Kiev was relatively small. In Estoniamand Ukraine the Jews were massacred, in the main, by their Christian fellow citizens.
As I mentioned in a recent BLOG, ten years ago my wife and I went on a cruise from Harwich to the Baltic as far as St Petersburg, calling at other beautiful cities. I described Estonia’s capital, Tallinn as a shithole, with an obsessive hatred of Russians, almost 25 years after the Russians had withdrawn, perhaps with relief from those surroundings.
The revelaion that the Foreign Ministers of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania had met for a tete-a-tete away from the public gaze of Whitehall, with the then British Foreign Secretary, Liz Truss, in her country retreat in Chevening, and had been photographed there in October 2021,nearly 5 months before Russia’s incursion into Ukraine also featured in a recent blog of mine.
SInce I wrote those blogs, Angela Merkel, whom I had regarded as the most trustworthy head of government (because she wasn’t into bling like Sarkozy, warmongering and moneymaking like Blair or boastfulness) has revealed that the Minsk Agreement of which she was the main architect was not intended to promote peace but the deceive the world, whilst she and her friends planned to destroy the Russian state.
But back to the documentary “HOW THE HOLOCAUST BEGAN”
On 19 September 1941 the Germans arrived in KIEV, the Ukrainian capital. On the 29th and 30th of that month, with the help of the UKRAINIAN AUXILIARY POLICE and thousands of Ukrainian Christians, they murdered and buried 33,771 Jews at BABI YAR, a ravine in that city. During the remaining years of NAZI occupation some 100,000 to 150,000 persons were murdered there, ROMA(Gypsies), prisoners of war, communists and others.
A good source for this information is WIKIPEDIA which includes videos of the film shot by the NAZIS at the time.
The current regime in UKRAINE and many of its military units have tattoos, and wear uniforms showing the insignia of the pro-Nazi forces of the 1940s.
The balance of justice lies with Russia in the current crisis, despite the lies and cowardice of the Western mass media.
Fuck you, you pro Russian Cunt! Yeah, Ukraine has its issues, and some of his soldiers are fascist leaning. To say that the balance of justice rest with Russia, big fuck you! Russia is a whore just because Saint Petersburg is beautiful in your opinion go to outskirts. Go to student dormitories, or each floor has one single bathroom with a shower, unpainted walls, falling ceilings. Give me a break you fucking Cunt.
What is your problem lad? No matter what your opinion, others are entitled to theirs without such language. Argue your point in a civil manner or you’ve lost the argument
Given the original poster’s callous disregard for the suffering of the Ukrainian people, and his attempts to brand the most horrific Russian atrocities as Western fabricated lies and propaganda exacerbated by his sneering remarks at their leader, I would rate Martin Goff”s posting as restrained…!!
The US/UK/EU anti-Putin, anti-Russia demonising has been cranked up to max since Russia intervened in Syria, a full year after the U.S. was supposedly bombing ISIS. Instead, the U.S. was protecting ISIS convoys of stolen oil, convoys of ISIS fighters and weaponry, etc. Without Russia, Syria would now be ruled by the duped head-chopping proxies of the U.S., U.K. etc. Then, the U.S. and U.K. would get public support to invade Syria. The US still illegally controls 80% of Syria’s oil fields. The brainwashed majority doesn’t know this war began in 2014 when the US-funded coup regime began bombing the Russian-speaking rebellion in the east of the country. Since then, 14,000 have been killed. Zelensky massed his forces and was about to crush the eastern rebellion before Russia intervened. None of this is mentioned in the mainstream narrative, because it totally contradicts the “it’s all Putin’s fault” narrative. It’s blatantly obvious the US and its puppet states UK and the EU etc., are using Ukraine as a proxy for regime change in Russia. US Senator Lindsey Graham said, “With U.S. weapons and money, Ukraine will fight Russia to the last Ukrainian.” Utterly shameful but typical US colonial/imperialistic mentality.
best comment here ……. thank you
Has been spewing Russian propaganda and lies from the very start
And condoning and justifying thousands of atrocities including murder
torture and rape and the nearly non stop destruction of civilian dwellings,
schools and hospitals..As well as continually sneering at Ukrainian
President Zelensky. A thoroughly contemptible person…!!
The regime in Ukraine is fascist-controlled. Ukraine’s extreme right-wing Svoboda party and its founders, Oleh Tyahnybok and Andriy Parubiy, played leading roles in the US-backed coup in February 2014. In 2016 the US banned weapons to Ukraine militia linked to neo-Nazis. In 2017 the US lifted the ban. If you find yourself on the same side as the liars who lied about WMD in Iraq etc. you should be very wary of their assertions about the war in Ukraine. Fool me once, shame on you! Fool me twice, shame on me! It’s blatantly obvious the US and its puppet states UK and the EU etc., are using Ukraine as a proxy for regime change in Russia. US Senator Lindsey Graham said, “With U.S. weapons and money, Ukraine will fight Russia to the last Ukrainian.” Utterly shameful but typical US colonial/imperialistic.
are you the same Donal Kennedy from Connolly Association days back in 1980’s?
