Last night the Police Chief of Odessa deputized over 1800 Pravy Sektor members to find and root out 'Separatists'. Pravy Sektor is rampaging through Odessa and mass slaughter of the large Jewish population that speaks Russian is feared.
Russian journalist Maxim Sokalov summed it up well in his article today "When the Ghetto Burned"- The Odessa pogrom of May 2, 2014 will be one of the blackest pages in Europe (so far rushes new Ukraine) because when supporters set fire to the building of national unity with the people inside and finished off those trying to escape from the fire - even 1945 Europe did not witness this.
As I write this, Ukrainian National Guard forces are massacring the population of the village of Semenvika, on the outskirts of Slovyansk. The junta forces set up concentric rings leading out from the village and went through the village with heavy machine guns, tanks, and grenade launchers indiscriminately killing unarmed residents. Slovyansk fighters are taking heavy losses as they try to get to the village.
As the Pogrom started the world sat silent, or silently applauded.
April 5,1944, at the age of seventeen, two months before the landing in Normandy,I enlisted in the US Army Reserve Corps and did active service later in the Pacific theater.
I was born in a United States that had a national administration, congress and supreme court. This Homeland administration,Homeland congress and Homeland court is an insult to my generation.
This comment is from someone who went to war and fought his generation's greatest threat to humanity.
Today, fir the first time, the IMF is making a loan dependent on the slaughtering of large swathes of a country's population to support the same forces that the previous generation went to war against.
The Southeast must be pacified or there will be no funding. Western governments are telling normal working people that they can't defend themselves from the horrors described above.
When the IMF prescribes this for any country, its saying very clearly that it has that right at home, too. Its time for ordinary people to say no.
There is still time to stop this. Gather signatures on the petition below and send it to the European Court on Human Rights.
Petition
Today the rights of many Ukrainian are not protected! Citizens are kidnapped and taken to an unknown destinations without being charged. People rob and kill with impunity. Institutions responsible for law and order fail to act.
The junta Government encourages ethnic hatred and genocide of its own people! We those who give orders to use the army against its own people be prosecuted!Those who give orders to shoot at unarmed civilians, those who open fire, do not warn civilians they are attacking, and do not allow civilians to leave the battlefield!
