It was organized by an umbrella of nationalist organizations known as the National Corps of Lviv Region, the Zaxid news site reported. In addition to the Waffen SS symbols, dozens of participants at the march carried posters featuring the 1st Galician\u2019s symbol.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">The march was held on the 75th anniversary of the 1st Galician\u2019s establishment under Nazi auspices.

It stands where thousand Jews were brutally murdered by Nazis and local police. Footage from a security camera shows a man approaching rapidly, hurling a firebomb at the monument and running away as the object burns. The same monument had been targeted three times since 2017<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Also last week, in the town of Poltava, in eastern Ukraine, a swastika and the words \u201cheil Hitler\u201d were spray-painted on a monument for Holocaust victims of the Holocaust. The vandals, who have not been identified, also wrote \u201cDeath to the kikes.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Some 70 miles northeast of Ternopil, in Ostroh, Jewish pilgrims on Friday found the gravesite of Rabbi Shmuel Eliezer Eideles, a 17th century luminary, had been vandalized, according to Hamodia.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">In Odessa, a large graffiti reading \u201cJews into the sea\u201d was written on the beachfront wall of a hotel.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">These incidents and the march coincide with reports in the Ukrainian media of a letter signed by 57 US congressmen condemning what they called Ukrainian legislation that \u201cglorifies Nazi collaborators.\u201d The letter, the harshest public rebuke in years of Ukraine\u2019s anti-Semitism by US elected officials, also says that that is seeing a \u201crise of this hateful ideology.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">In Ukraine, a revolution in 2013 that ended the rule of a key Kremlin ally ushered in a wave of nationalism that coincided with what Israeli researchers of anti-Semitism in January called a massive increase in anti-Semitic incidents amid government inaction.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">The glorification of fighters who allied with the Nazis against Russian domination increased considerably in volume after 2013. In 2015, the Ukrainian parliament passed a law that criminalizes denying the \u201cheroism\u201d of some of these allies of Nazi Germany, which oversaw the near annihilation of the region\u2019s Jews.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr style=\"background: #d0e6fa; width: 710px; height: 15px;\" \/>\n<div id=\"content\" class=\" content-alignment&lt;br \/&gt;&lt;br \/&gt; \">\n<div id=\"watch-description\" class=\"yt-uix-button-panel\">\n<div id=\"watch-description-text\" style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p><em>Zawarto\u015b\u0107 publikowanych artyku\u0142\u00f3w i materia\u0142\u00f3w nie reprezentuje pogl\u0105d\u00f3w ani opinii Reunion&#8217;68,<\/em><em><br \/>\nani te\u017c webmastera Blogu Reunion&#8217;68, chyba ze jest to wyra\u017anie zaznaczone.<br \/>\nTwoje uwagi, linki, w\u0142asne artyku\u0142y lub wiadomo\u015bci prze\u015blij na adres:<br \/>\n<\/em><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong><em><a style=\"color: #000080;\" href=\"mailto:webmaster@reunion68.com\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">webmaster@reunion68.com<\/span><\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr style=\"width: 710px;\" \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nazi symbols, salutes on display at Ukrainian nationalist march JTA Jewish community slams &#8216;scandalous event&#8217; honoring the 14th Waffen Grenadier Division of the SS &nbsp; Hundreds of people in the Ukrainian city of Lviv attended a nationalist march featuring Nazi symbols that commemorated a Waffen SS unit with many local volunteers.
