Far-right Ukrainians target ‘judeo-Nazis’:
Turning Jewish hate laws against their authors.

by Dave Cooper

The Jewish press reports that Ukrainian nationalists have asked President Viktor Yushchenko to open criminal proceedings against “judeo-Nazis” in Ukraine. Specifically cited in the request were the Chabad rabbis and the Tanya, the main work of Chabad hassidic literature.

Members of the Ukrainian Conservative Party writing in an open letter to Yushchenko, demanded that “Jews be prevented from teaching the Tanya in Jewish schools and synagogues, so as to stop the spread of ‘this misanthropic religious system.’”

The authors of the letter are associates of the highly respected Interregional Academy of Personnel Management, known in the Ukraine as the MAUP. The MAUP is the largest university in the Ukraine with about 50,000 students and its graduates work and teach at major universities around the world. Recently the MAUP hosted a conference titled, “Dialogue of Civilizations: Zionism as the Greatest Threat to Contemporary Civilization” which was attended by Rep. David Duke Ph.D. Reportedly, the MAUP has also published a list of, “media and organizations who distribute and defend or support Jewish racism, Judeo-Nazism and Jewish organized crime in Ukraine.”

Angered that the authors would dare to expose Jewish racism, The Federation of Jewish Communities in the Commonwealth of Independent States demanded Ukraine hold the authors of the letter “accountable for inciting hatred against Jews.”
