I talked to the old Ukrainians and Russians back in the day, usually at a wedding or a funeral.
At first, they would dismiss me.
For the Ukrainians, the Stalin era was too hard to talk about. For the Russians, they destroyed Hitler. Then, over Vodka, Vadim would begin to speak.
A little boy, the Americans made Vadim and his mother walk on a road; (Vadim remembers holding his mother's hand) on each side were Jews, German people, soldiers, and children, dead bodies as far as they could see. Then, finally, a Russian and an American soldier stopped and gave Vadim and his mother food and a Hershy Bar.
In the present time, the US is supplying "lethal aid" to Nazis.
The war is over. Vadim's Aussie experience. ..is another story.
War is a terrible experience. Ukraine has been touched by US $ corruption and neo-nazi sociopaths.
This war can end right now. Yet, US neocons will not permit peace. We should ask, Why?
(The Nazi problem)
Diplomacy and peace.
Why not?
