1. and ukraine wants help against russian incursions
jeri   (04.30.17)
those who fought nazis did solemn duty. ukraine should not be doing this publically since ukraine openly collaborated with the nazis in monstrous war crimes. bibi soiuld be pressing urkaine president vehemently to drop the case or else.why would we expect bibi to apologize when he did not do so to relavives of murdered soldiers who were insulted by bitan, and herzog is afraid to whisper one bad word against breaking the silence.

ukrane should stop any proceedings or israel should enact consequences.
2. This is like the Spanish Inquisition when Jews were dug up
Rivkah   (04.30.17)
from their graves and put on trial to steal their heirs' property! I would think Ukraine has persecuted the Jews enough considering all the judgments Ukraine is suffering as a consequence.

Surely does not apply to the Serbs. Rgds.
4. The new name of the Ukraine is FUBAR
Dan ,   Aucklannd   (05.01.17)
Truly the Ukraine has become a
Federated
Union of the
Brotherhood of
Autonomous
Republics.
It is a failed state and the sooner it is dismantled, the fewer human lives will be lost.

A murder is a murder, whatever your flag or ideology.
6. Ukraine's sins
BBB   (05.03.17)
are copies of the Nazis.
Both were, and remain anti semitic vipers and both lost big time.
Putin now has his foot on the neck of the Ukrainians, and they don't seem to mind, much.
( Did you know that once the Ukraine was known as the bread basket of the Russian's?)
The Nazis' DID surrender, one smart move after costing Europe so much agony.
Nazi's come and go and some just add a different name.
KEEP BUILDING!!
7. Perhaps the Ukraine can dig up
BUILD BABY BUILD !!   (05.03.17)
some other Jewish Ukrainian war heroes and have a trial to rebury them again only this time as traitors?
My darling Mother came from the Ukraine after WW1 and the stories she told would make you weep.
She kissed the ground when they landed in America.
G-d bless America
G-d bless Israel
Israel, G-ds only chosen nation.
BUILDING IS A MITVAH!!
8. KGB's Putin murdered how many people ?
BUILD BABY BUILD !!   (05.03.17)
And he's now the PM of Russia and a multi billionaire.
( when many Russians are hungry )
Seems the only crime of this 94 year old hero, Boris Sheckler is that he's a Jew.
Anti semitism is never pretty and, this particular ugly act is also criminal.
BUILD MORE SAVE MORE !!

11. A diversion.

Ukraina killed so many Jews, now they are saying :Jews were bad too.
12. Poland Tried To Expedite Solomon Morrell From Israel
World Citizen ,   the world   (05.05.18)
He was a Jewish war criminal who sadistically tortured and murdered hundreds of ethnic Germans in Poland after WW2. Israel would not allow him to be sent back. This old Jew will get the same punishment in Hell when he dies.
13. new act by neo-nazi
nazigotohell ,   shenzhen   (05.09.18)
Ukrinian nationalists colluded with Nazi. They are the real criminals. Welldone for the old Soviet veteran who killed nazi.
14. traitors are now suddenly nationalists.!
(08.18.18)
Acompleteout of this world idea, first of all he was a Soviet citizen, but Uhraina hesitates to take on the Soviets
15. Huh? Steckler died in January. What's the point of this?
David ,   Haifa   (08.22.18)
16. Steckler
Shlomo genuth ,   Raanana   (01.13.19)
No news with the ukrainians,same good old antsemitism
17. Do Israelis know
Zoe   (01.22.19)
that over 100.000 Ukrainians fled Ukraine due to their war and came to Israel. 100.000 antisemites are here with us and we do nothing to send them back. It is true that since, unlike the Soudanese and the Erythreans, they are white, so not recognizable, they live here, eat here, work here without any problems and HATE US. Get them out NOW - let them go back to Ukraine.
