WNU Editor,

Tip for you:

"The new speaker of the Ukrainian parliament, Andriy Parubiy, is a longtime neo-Nazi activist who was a founder of the national socialist party of Ukraine. The party was recently renamed Svoboda which, along with many neofascists, has seen its political fortunes rise in the wake of the 2014 US-backed coup.

Parubiy played a significant role in the coup, serving as commandant of the Euromaidan, where he and other neo-fascists helped violently overthrow the democratically-elected President Viktor Yanukovych. The armed battles with security forces in Kiev were carried out by many people, who would later join the right wing militias that would fight in the Ukraine Civil War."

Thank you for the tip Jay. I did not know about this. Andriy Parubiy is a real piece of work.

He's also in good with the Canadian Government.

My Grandfather fought the SS hand to hand in WW2. To say he loathed them, and all fascists, is an understatement. He'd be calling on us to march on Ottawa if he lived to see the PM of Canada hugging up to Nazis let alone holding a speaking engagement at a Canadian University.

The Grandkids will be notified.
