As platoon leader, Delta says he takes orders from activists connected to Svoboda, an ultra-nationalist party that has been frequently accused of anti-Semitism and whose members have been said to have had key positions in organizing the opposition protests.
“I don’t belong [to Svoboda], but I take orders from their team. They know I’m Israeli, Jewish and an ex-IDF soldier. They call me ‘brother,’” he said. “What they’re saying about Svoboda is exaggerated, I know this for a fact. I don’t like them because they’re inconsistent, not because of [any] anti-Semitism issue.”
Over the weekend, when Yanukovych's situation as President was still unclear, Arutz Sheva's Russian-language sources reported that the Ukrainian police forces - who are loyal to Yanukovych - have been making open threats against the Jewish community, and promoting anti-Semitic propaganda.
Then they finally get some control and immediately begin a harsh crackdown on the eastern portion of the country, the massive existing Russian military bases that are within land which was Russian until 1954, and officially autonomous from 1992 on etc.
Ukraine isn't the only country being pushed into the EU, while Spain and Greece stagnate economically, they have the same kind of neo-nazis that have been marching through Kiev come to the fore. Croatia just got pushed into the EU a few months ago, despite opposition, economic stagnation etc.
That Americans and some western Europeans are taking advantage of the situation is of their nature. What is laughable is watching their stage-managed show of neo-nazis and well-financed by outsiders demonstrations and hearing nonsensical moralistic bombast about freedom, how awful Russia is to protect its ceded territory with its military bases etc.
