[Peace-discuss] Recent good Ukraine war background explainer and on Canada giving a WWII Nazi a standing ovation

[J.B. Nicholson]

The best explanation I've seen so far on Canada's recent standing ovation for a 
98-year-old Ukrainian Nazi veteran Yaroslav Hunka is from Rachel Blevins:

Trudeau Bemoans 'Russian Propaganda' Amid Backlash for Celebrating Ukrainian Nazi Veteran

I thought that she might be a bit too lenient on Canada calling this an oversight but 
then later she does state that Canada celebrated a Nazi until they saw that they 
couldn't get away with it, which I think is what really happened (given the evidence 
she presents -- the attached photo published by Theresa Hunka (Yaroslav's daughter) 
with the caption "Dedo is waiting in the reception hall for Trudeau and Zelensky" and 
the House Speaker Anthony Rota's introductory text which included "a Ukrainian hero, 
a Canadian hero… who fought for Ukrainian independence against the Russians" in 
WWII). PM Trudeau never apologized nor resigned; he tried to claim that parliament 
was "unaware of the context" and later offered "parliament's unreserved apologies for 
what happened on Friday" and then Rota resigned.

Aaron Maté asks an excellent question in his latest Substack essay 
https://mate.substack.com/p/why-is-applauding-ukrainian-nazis -- "Why is applauding 
Ukrainian Nazis a scandal, but not arming them?".

Also worth seeing or hearing is Jimmy Dore's address to the UN Security Council --

as he covers what Western media won't, the full relevant history of our proxy war 
against Russia via Ukraine.
