Remains of 286 Jewish Holocaust victims uncovered in 2 basements in Ukraine

The remains of 286 Jews who were murdered during the Holocaust were found in two basements in a town in southwest Ukraine.

The remains, mostly women and children, will be buried in a mass grave in the ancient Jewish cemetery in Sataniv, Ynet reported.

The town had an organized Jewish community for about 500 years before the Nazis captured it in 1941 and began systematically killing its Jews, according to the Yad Vashem website.

On May 15, 1942, Nazi troops and Ukrainian military police locked the 286 Jews in the cellars and suffocated them.

Trump's fellow white nationalists will consider that a good thing.

"The heat here is nothing compared to what you're going to get in the ovens," shouted Robert Ray, a writer for white supremacist site Daily Stormer.

The New York Times and Washington Post reported that the crowd chanted "You will not replace us" and "Jew will not replace us" during the event.

The lesson isn't the utter savagery of the Nazis and of the Ukrainian police. The lesson is that each one of those barbarians once played as children in towns and villages with other children, learning all the while to hate "the other", taught by their parents as their parents had been taught by theirs.

The lesson is that the kinds of systemic hatred, anti-semitism, racism, that taint the atmosphere of childhood can explode into this. That vicious slaughter is exactly what the armed, bearded, and flower-shirted nose pickers would do given the power. That's what Barr's monsters, armed, uniformed and anonymous, terrorizing the citizens of Portland would do. What Barr, himself, and Trump, would do if doing it would garner votes.

Make no mistake: there are featherless bipeds (can't call them human, not completely human, not even aspiring to be human) walking among us today, flag waving "proud white Americans" who would read this report with an ugly savor, a demonic savor. Millions of them.
