Лев Гунин - ГУЛаг Палестины
Nordex has reportedly suffered in the wake of the emerging-markets economic crisis.
Luchansky maintains a residence in the Israeli seaside town of Netanya, a Mecca for
Soviet-region emigres and scene of intense Russian mob activity, the Jerusalem Post
newspaper reported.
The Post was unable to contact Luchansky for comment and his whereabouts are unknown.
I Expand My Summary Table Once Again
The table which I have been developing in my previous four letters to you can now be
elaborated with the Leonid Wolf entry. As the SBU press release gives no dates for the
Leonid Wolf assassinations, I am assuming that they took place in the last five years:

And I Find My Earlier Conclusions Strengthened
For your 23Oct94 60 Minutes broadcast The Ugly Face of Freedom, you went to Ukraine
determined to broadcast the story - no matter what the evidence - of Ukrainians
oppressing and murdering Jews. In order to do so, you had to blind yourself to the
plentiful evidence that exactly the opposite was taking place. The reality is that
Ukraine is being plundered and assaulted by a Jewish mafia based in Israel. You can
begin your investigation of this phenomenon with the cases of the following three
Israeli citizens: (1) "the most pernicious unindicted criminal in the world" Grigory
Luchansky, (2) his "key Ukrainian lieutenant" Vadim Rabinovich, and (3) "contract
killer" Leonid Wolf. Please note that in your smearing of Ukraine, you were unable to
come up with evidence of a Ukrainian mafia based in Ukraine and victimizing Israel. The
evidence was the opposite, but you were not interested in evidence.
But since the subject of our discussion is not merely crime, but rather cross-ethnic
violence, I restrict my attention to assassin Leonid Wolf, and with respect to Leonid
Wolf, I ask you to note that you were unable to come up with evidence of a Ukrainian
assassin who roamed Israel murdering as he went, especially one whom Israel, fearing the
vengeance of a powerful Ukraine, neglected to arrest and put on trial, but merely banned
from Israeli soil for a time.
Mr. Safer, Ukraine's plunderers and assassins cannot operate in a vacuum. They need
support. They need Swiss banks to stash their loot. They need Israel to provide them
with sanctuary. They need journalists to smear their victims. And so, although you
have lost all claim to journalistic competence and integrity, at least you can console
yourself with not being alone and unappreciated. Indeed, you are a valued member of a
large and successful team. Grigory Luchansky, Vadim Rabinovich, and Leonid Wolf
undoubtedly know of your work, and they thank you for it.

Morley Safer Letter 16 23Oct99 Fifth anniversary commemoration
If, to imagine a comparable case, CBS management jointly owned a chicken-packing

Minutes to run a story defending the plant without disclosing its ownership.

Morley Safer:
Fifth anniversary of The Ugly Face of Freedom
Now that we have arrived at the fifth anniversary of your 23Oct94 60 Minutes broadcast
The Ugly Face of Freedom, I think that all might agree that five years has given us
sufficient time to reflect on that broadcast, to arrive at a reasonable understanding of
its defects, and to decide what corrective action remains for 60 Minutes to undertake.
It is the purpose of the present letter to propose that the corrective action should be
a 12-minute 60 Minutes story under the title The Ugly Face of 60 Minutes, and
necessarily hosted by yourself.
Given the severe time limitation of a 12-minute segment, not to mention the public's
lack of interest in excessive detail, The Ugly Face of 60 Minutes will be forced to
overlook scores of lesser inaccuracies and biases, and will be forced to omit mention of
any defects that contain the least element of doubt. Rather, The Ugly Face of 60
Minutes will have no option but to outline only those major defects and errors
concerning which there is no dispute. Below is my listing of the points which - being
the most important and the least disputable - are ones that The Ugly Face of 60 Minutes
should include.
Who did it?
The authorship of The Ugly Face of Freedom was Jewish. The Ugly Face of 60
Minutes should start by acknowledging that The Ugly Face of Freedom was not just an
attack upon Ukrainians and upon the nation of Ukraine, but that it was a Jewish attack.
You will be able to convince your viewers of this merely by disclosing that every last
person bearing responsibility for the story, from the very top of the chain of command
to the very bottom, was Jewish:
(1) Laurence Tisch, Chairman and CEO of CBS
(2) Eric Ober, President of CBS News
(3) Don Hewitt, Executive Producer of 60 Minutes
(4) Jeffrey Fager, Producer of The Ugly Face of Freedom
(5) Morley Safer, Program Host
(6) Simon Wiesenthal, one of the two featured program witnesses
(7) Yaakov Bleich, the other of the two featured program witnesses
Moreover, The Ugly Face of 60 Minutes should acknowledge that it was unethical for CBS
to run a story on Ukraine without acknowledging its conflict of interest - the conflict
being that it is an integral part of Jewish culture to nourish fear and hatred of
Ukrainians, and yet 60 Minutes which was owned and operated by Jews undertook to
broadcast what purported to be an objective, investigative-journalism story on Ukraine.
If, to imagine a comparable case, CBS management jointly owned a chicken-packing plant
that had been cited for sanitation violations, then it would be unethical for 60 Minutes
to run a story defending the plant without disclosing its ownership.
One of the authors of The Ugly Face of Freedom may have been a Gestapo
agent. Of all the individuals in the above list, I see no need to discuss
transgressions beyond those committed in creating the broadcast, except in one case
where it is of the highest relevance - and that is the case of Simon Wiesenthal whom you
bring forward to testify concerning Nazi collaboration when he himself appears to be a
Nazi collaborator of major proportions, possibly with the blood of many on his hands,
and possibly much of it Jewish blood. The Ugly Face of 60 Minutes should disclose the
suspect nature of Wiesenthal's past, as for example the occasion on which Simon
Wiesenthal was allowed by his German captors to keep two pistols, or the occasion on
which other Jews were executed following their recapture after escaping, whereas Simon
Wiesenthal was relieved of work and put on double rations. This information is highly
relevant, as it suggests the possibility that Simon Wiesenthal used 60 Minutes to offer
false testimony concerning Nazi collaboration partly in order to conceal his own guilt.
What did they do?
The attempt on the part of CBS Jews steeped in a culture of hatred toward Ukrainians to
report on Ukraine resulted in outstanding distortions which can be corrected as follows:
(1) In the pre-German interval, Ukrainians did not kill Jews. The Ugly Face of 60
Minutes should disclose to its viewers that the Wiesenthal-Safer calumny - that prior to
the arrival of German forces, Ukrainians killed some five to six thousand Jews - is
without support.
(2) In the pre-German interval, Jews did kill Ukrainians. The Ugly Face of 60
Minutes should disclose that in the days prior to occupation by German forces, the
Jewish-dominated NKVD tortured and murdered Ukrainians by the thousands.
(3) The Yaakov Bleich stories cannot be substantiated. The Ugly Face of 60 Minutes
should disclose that the Yaakov Bleich stories of elderly Jews being stabbed and left
for dead in two different locations in Ukraine cannot be substantiated.
(4) Stepan Bandera was a Ukrainian patriot. The Ugly Face of 60 Minutes should
balance negative Stepan Bandera coverage by disclosing that Bandera was arrested by the
Germans in the first days of their invasion of Ukraine, spent most of the war in German
captivity, lost two brothers in Auschwitz, and upon release from German captivity toward
the end of the war, devoted his efforts to fighting the Germans.
(5) Symon Petliura protected Jews from anti-Ukrainian provocateurs. The Ugly
Face of 60 Minutes should balance negative Symon Petliura coverage by quoting his own
words, as for example this excerpt from his Army Order No. 131: "I most positively order
that all those who are instigating you to pogroms be thrust out of the army, and as
traitors to the fatherland be handed over to the court. Let the court punish them
according to their crimes by giving them the severest lawful penalty."
(6) The Galicia Division was an anti-Bolshevik combat unit. The Ugly Face of 60
Minutes should disclose that the Galicia Division was not part of the SS, but only of
the Waffen-SS, and so was a combat unit; that there were a total of 38 Waffen-SS
divisions comprised of several nationalities, including four Dutch divisions, two
Belgian, as well as French, Norwegian, and Russian; and that the Galicia Division did
not "march off to fight for Hitler," but rather marched off to fight against the
Bolshevik re-occupation of Western Ukraine.
(7) The Holocaust story has been adulterated. The Ugly Face of 60 Minutes should
disclose that the history of the Holocaust has been adulterated by the admixture of
fantasies concocted by unprincipled opportunists - Jerzy Kosinski being the most widely
known example, and the Wiesenthal-Safer calumny providing the instance closest to home.
(8) CBS stone-walled. The Ugly Face of 60 Minutes should disclose that 60 Minutes
illegally destroyed the 16,000 pieces of mail which protested The Ugly Face of Freedom,
and that 60 Minutes also delayed for five years (and maybe a little bit longer) before
informing its viewers of the defects in the original broadcast.
(9) Mistranslation. Conceding for present purposes that 60 Minutes was not clearly in
the wrong to always translate Zhyd as Kike, nevertheless The Ugly Face of 60 Minutes
should disclose that when the editor of Za Vilnu Ukrainu used the word Yevrei, 60
Minutes was obligated to translate that as Jew, and was clearly in the wrong to have
translated it as Kike.
(10) Ukrainian sacrifices to save Jews. The Ugly Face of 60 Minutes should tear up
its picture of unrelieved Ukrainian hostility to Jews by disclosing that a large number
of Ukrainians risked their lives, and gave their lives, to save Jews, and that no
comparable reciprocity has ever been observed from the Jewish side. The case of
Metropolitan Andrey Sheptytsky hiding large numbers of Jews on church property could be
featured in this context, as could the Ukrainian Bodnar's saving the life of Simon
Wiesenthal.
(11) The chief Ukrainian roles during WW II were those of victim and of victor.
The Ugly Face of 60 Minutes should tear up its picture of unrelieved Ukrainian sympathy
for Nazism by disclosing that Ukrainians were among the foremost victims of the Nazis,
suffering losses much greater than Jewish losses, and were in the forefront of the
battle which defeated the Nazis.
Why did they do it?
Jews have motives for calumniating Ukraine. The Ugly Face of 60 Minutes should
finally inform its viewers of Jewish motives for calumniating Ukrainians and Ukraine,
among these being the following:
(1) Brain drain. Magnified and incited Ukrainian anti-Semitism is needed in order to
increase the brain drain from Ukraine to Israel.
(2) Image of the Jew as victim. Inculcating the image of Jews as victims of the
Nazis, and Ukrainians as the leading collaborators of the Nazis, serves to crowd out,
and give the appearance of implausibility to, a series of other images: that Ukrainians
were leading victims of the Nazis, that Ukrainians played a leading role in the defeat
of the Nazis, that Jews collaborated with the Nazis more than Ukrainians did, that
Ukrainians risked their lives and gave their lives to save Jews, and that in today's
world, among the leading perpetrators of war crimes and crimes against humanity are the
Israelis.
(3) The Lviv massacre. Promoting the false story of Ukrainians massacring Jews prior
to the arrival of the Germans is particularly useful in winning disbelief of the true
story that the Jewish-dominated NKVD massacred Ukrainians prior to the arrival of the
Germans.
(4) Bohdan Khmelnytsky. The Jewish calumniation of Ukrainians strengthens a frame
of mind that will more readily accept the Jewish revision of the Bohdan Khmelnytsky
uprising of 1648 from the accurate view that it was a rebellion against severe
Polish-Jewish oppression to the false view that it was a spontaneous outburst of
gratuitous and genocidal anti-Semitism.
(5) US aid. The Jewish calumniation of Ukrainians weakens competition for US aid, as by
