@DebtforClimate

On Feb 27, we will take to the streets in 🇩🇪 and in front of German embassies worldwide!
This day marks the 70th anniversary of the debt cancellation 🇩🇪 received after #WW2 in the #LondonAgreement.
Here is a little history lesson that you may not have heard in school:
🧵👇[1/18]

Post-war 🇩🇪 was a heavily indebted country:
there was pre-war debt, consisting of outstanding reparation payments from WW1 & private debts of German banks & companies (standstill debt), the amount of the debt made by the Nazi Government (Konversionskasse) and post-war debt👇[2/18

Bear in mind that the #DeNazification of 🇩🇪 was never properly done: major powerful figures from the Third Reich remained in influential political & economic positions after the war, and were able to build their businesses also due to the outcome of the #LondonAgreement.👇[3/18]

**Has Russia committed #genocide in #Ukraine?**

My op-ed in @thehill answers #yes. I discuss the politics of naming and differentiate between colloquial, legal, and social scientific understandings -- and their entailments. A thread 1/9
thehill.com/opinion/intern…

First, #colloquial understandings generally center on the killing of innocents. The Holocaust looms large as a prototype, but it can be applied widely to everything from abortion to AIDS. It can also encompass various sorts of mass atrocities 2/9
ushmm.org/genocide-preve…

Because of its capaciousness, the colloquial understanding can be misapplied and politically appropriated – as was the case with Russia’s baseless claims about genocide in Donbas. 3/9

"The Nazis did not fall from Mars and they did not rape Germany. Only those who left the country in '33 can think that. I still lived there for a few years. And I heard the roar on the radio, the thick bloodcurdling roar at their gatherings. 👇

👆That was no longer the Nazi party, that was Germany itself." - Erich Maria Remarque, Shadows in Paradise

By simply replacing the word "#Germany" with "#russia," we get a complete reflection of today's reality. 👇

👆That is why, like Germany, after the fall of Hitler's regime, russia must undergo the same rehabilitative path. #Denazification, denuclearization, restriction of the army. 👇

@GermaniaMagnaTW

(1/23) This thread is mainly addressed to my #German followers, but it could also be interesting for those who always wanted to know how Germany could become the most culturally leftist country on the European continent. Accordingly, this thread is a #political #commentary by me.

(2/23) It is about the historical personality of the first post-war chancellor, Konrad Adeneauer. I also would like to finally dispel a myth that still plagues German conservatives, by which I do not mean recationaries, but all those who do not want to destroy their own country.

(3/23) This myth is the myth of the "good old", #50s and #60s, #CDU (Christian Democratic Party) and the question of what role a post-war #Germany could have played if #Adenauer and his party had not made completely wrong decisions about essential political directions.

It's been a long day. We finally reached #Kherson and start arranging our return with a regular train there. But that's a long story. Take a sit. 🧵

Once our army fought #russians out of #Kherson, I knew I have to go there and arrange our service ASAP. Boots on the ground is our way.

Days like this one start very early. And today we had a magic morning.

1/4 Every every major pogrom in Ukraine during the Holocaust, including those in Lviv, Babi Yar, Kamianets-Podilskyi, and Vinnitsa; every act of ethnic cleansing; and every mass murder, was co-plotted by and reported to monstrous Nazi Stepan Bandera. @StephenKing #denazification

2/4 Stepan Bandera’s OUN-B, Ukrainian Auxiliary Police (Hilfspolizei), and 14th Grenadier Waffen-SS (1st Ukrainian) at work during the pogroms in Lviv, Babi Yar, Kamianets-Podilskyi, and Vinnitsa.

#Ukraine condemned Andrij #Melnyk for defending #Bandera, but hypocritically still has 350+ monuments to dozens of such OUN,UPA &SS Nazi collaborators.
They are celebrated with parades & museums, & have streets, schools, parks & stadiums named after them.
forward.com/news/462916/na…

At #Peacetalks in April a #Zelenskyy adviser said #DeNazification of streets names was no problem, but #Ukraine preferred in the end to rename ones named for Russians like Tolstoy instead.
They refuse to talk to🇷🇺& prefer to escalate than try to #StopWar

1/OUN leader #Bandera spent part of WW2 as a German prisoner after declaring independence, despite pledging allegiance to #Hitler.

1/6 Imagine if a country was hanging banners of Hitler outside of its public buildings. Groups of legislators spontaneously singing ‘our father is Hitler, … is our mother’ while in session. Major streets, squares, and parks were renamed after Hitler. #denazification #abolishNATO

2/6 Reactionaries bring Hitler banners to soccer games. Statutes of Hitler are erected everywhere. Books critical of Hitler are banned. Dissenters are murdered, other political parties are liquidated. #denazification #abolishNATO #ZelenskyyWarCriminal #DenazifyUkraine

3/6 The Waffen-SS is openly celebrated as is Hitler’s legacy of pogroms. Hitler’s cult status is elevated higher than it ever had been before. #denazification #abolishNATO #ZelenskyyWarCriminal #DenazifyUkraine

🇺🇦 “Ukraine is the only nation to have a Nazi formation in its Armed Forces.” (The Nation, 2019)

Before the pesky US-NATO proxy war narratives took hold of the air waves, and billions washed through the country, the West felt at duty to tell the truth about #Ukraine.

“Post-Maidan #Ukraine is the world’s only nation to have a neo-Nazi formation in its armed forces. The #Azov Battalion was initially formed out of the neo-Nazi gang Patriot of Ukraine.”

“In the fall of 2014, #Azov—which is accused of human-rights abuses, including torture, by Human Rights Watch and the United Nations—was incorporated into Ukraine’s National Guard.”

These human rights atrocities have not stopped. #Denazification #Ukraine

In early march, we published a study on how Russians feel about the #war in #Ukraine.

We repeated this survey in early April with 1508 interviews in collaboration with @mowebresearch.

The survey took place before the atrocities in #Bucha became public. Results in a 🧵👇(1/n)

To obtain genuine & honest answers, the survey was conducted online. Since the first survey, the #propaganda has intensified and #pressure on critical voices in #Russia has increased. Therefore, any changes to march results only serve as an indicator for mood changes. (2/n)

57% of Russsians support Russia's "military intervention" in Ukraine (+9% since March). Support is increasing, but is lower than in other recently published polls, possibly due to online methodology where less pressure is present compared to phone/face2face methodologies. (3/n)

The previously mentioned Mikhail Podolyak was quick to use the #Bucha "massacre" to ask for more weapons
It's worth noting that the Rus Army left the town on Mar 30,,,,4 days ago but footage appeared only today

Opened my email just now and saw this arresting image, sent by the always-compelling @JohnQBarrett.

It included this annotation: "In this historic indictment, and in the Nuremberg trial that followed, Russia was part of prosecuting Nazis for specific crimes in Ukraine—the same criminal acts that Russia today is committing in Ukraine.

"I recount the horrific details of these Russian-charged crimes in Ukraine in an essay, 'Remember the Nuremberg Indictment,' that will be published tomorrow in the New York Law Journal."
"Tomorrow" was a few days ago. The article remains excellent.

Looks like the Russian invaders destroyed another holocaust memorial.

Starting to think that by "#denazification" they actually meant - getting rid of anything that commemorates the victims of Nazis.

PS >

> note: earlier in the war when they attacked Babyn Yar, I still thought they aim at specific area/buildings/structure.

Now I am quite aware that they just seem to be shelling indiscriminately, without any care for anyone, alive, dead, or murdered.

Still says a lot.

For context, this is how it looked before.

It's a wide open field. How to see how it gets hit if another structure was the target.

We're less than two weeks into the defence of Ukraine, and the demands have both come and started to fade out. Talk of #denazification has given way to just wanting to keep Crimea and letting the two regions go.

However.... 🧵

The EU and NATO are precisely the reason Ukraine has been able to endure this. The idea to commit to never joining them is an odd one, as it boils down do:

"Don't do the one thing that helped you survive our attack".

That's not a bargain anyone in Ukraine would take....

.... Meanwhile, Putin's Russia burns on the world stage. A pariah to all but India and Chinese interests, and even then not "supported" (Abstention in the UN at best).

It's oligarchs targeted, its citizens lives disrupted. Tens of thousands openly protesting daily at home.
