Zelensky Outrages Israel

by Stephen Lendman

Addressing Israel's Knesset by video link from his Polish hideout, US-installed puppet Zelensky touched a raw nerve the wrong way.

Turning truth on its head, he disgracefully compared Russia's demilitarization and deNazification of Ukraine with the Jewish holocaust at the hands of German Nazis in the run-up to and during WW II.

He lied by virtually equating Vladimir Putin to Adolph Hitler (sic).

He lied claiming that the aim of Russia's campaign is "a final solution for the Ukrainian people (sic)."

In response, Israel's Bennett regime communications minister Yoaz Hendel tweeted:

"(C)ompari(ng) the horrors of the holocaust and the final solution is outrageous."

Former Netanyahu regime cabinet minister, Likud MP Yuval Steinitz said the following:

"If Zelensky's address (wasn't given against the backdrop of war in Ukraine), we would have said it bordered on holocaust denial," adding:

"Every comparison between a regular war and the extermination of millions of Jews in gas chambers in the framework of the final solution is a total distortion of history."

"The same is true for the claim that Ukrainians helped Jews in the Holocaust."

"The historic truth is that the Ukrainian people cannot be proud of its behavior in the holocaust of the Jews."

Zelensky liked claiming otherwise.

Complicit with Nazi Germany, Ukrainian police rounded up Jews to be massacred in Babyn Yar, Lvov and Zhytomyr.

Many thousands of Ukrainians were Waffen SS volunteers. 

Small numbers alone allied with Jewish suffering.

Pre-and-during WW II, horrific pogroms against Jews occurred in Ukrainian territory.

In response to Zelensky's offensive holocaust comparison, a number of Israeli ministers slammed him anonymously — calling his remarks "outrageous."

Hebrew language media slammed the "outrageous comparison."

Likud MK Yoav Kish tweeted:

"War…is not a holocaust."

"A holocaust is, among other things, intentional genocide, ovens, gas chambers, mass graves and the premeditated murder of women and children."

"MK Galit Distal Atbaryan:

"When Zelenskyy gave the Holocaust a makeover, I felt like someone punched me in the stomach or stuck a finger in my eye or both."

Zelensky outrageously accused Russia of seeking "the total destruction of our people, our state, our people, our state, our culture, even the name: Ukraine, Israel."

He lied saying that "102 years after the Nazis, the order was given to begin the Russian invasion of Ukraine, which has already killed thousands of people and left millions without a home (sic)."

"The Russians use the terminology of the Nazi party."

"They want to destroy everything." 

"The Nazis called this 'the final solution to the Jewish question."

"And now…in Moscow…they're using those words, 'the final solution.' " 

"But now it's directed against us and the Ukrainian question." 

Zelensky's rubbish should outrage everyone.

Israeli Religious Zionism MKs slammed him for trying "to rewrite history and erase the involvement of the Ukrainian people in the extermination of Jews."

Who wrote what he recited? 

Were his remarks scripted by the Biden regime elements with no knowledge of history?

Even MSM criticized Zelensky's holocaust comparison to what's ongoing in Ukraine.

AP News said his comparison "drew an angry condemnation from Israel's (Vad Vashem) holocaust memorial, which said Zelenskyy was trivializing the holocaust."

Newsweek said he "sparked indignation in Israel with (his) infuriating holocaust comparison."

The Hill quoted Religious Zionist Party leader Bezalel Smotrich, saying: 

"His infuriating and ridiculous comparison to the holocaust and his attempt to rewrite history and to erase the role of the Ukrainian people in the attempts to exterminate the Jewish people" was unacceptable.

Zelensky's comparison of Russia's demilitarization and deNazification campaign to the extermination of Jews by Nazi Germany was one of countless examples of his farcical leadership.

Notably by delivering his remarks to Israel and other countries by video link from Poland — while pretending to be in Kiev.
