Have you ever wondered why the kingdom over his brothers was given to Judah? To understand this, you need to go back to the moment when Benjamin was accused of stealing the golden cup. And then Judah did something unusual - he began to beg to be taken as a slave instead of Benjamin. What an example of self-sacrifice! Only the one who will give his life for the sake of his brothers is worthy of the kingdom.

And now I will return to Ukraine. And I will explain why we will not stop fighting even if we have no allies. Even if they do not supply us with weapons, even if everyone turns away from us. Even if we have to fight with our bare hands. Ukrainians will not stop fighting because we are fighting for the truth, we are not fighting for territories. We are fighting to prevent hatred, genocide, mass murders, bullying, torture, rape that can spread to the rest of Eastern Europe.

Because if we surrender, we know exactly what will happen. Therefore, Ukraine will stand to the end to the death, but we will not allow the Russians to go further beyond our borders, because further - our children. And we must defend life till the death. It doesn’t matter to me and many Ukrainians what the Poles or Belarusians think now, whether they plan to help us or not, it doesn’t matter at all. Because that’s not the point. The Russians have encountered resistance and for 3 years now they have not been able to capture a single large city in Eastern Ukraine. But they still don’t know WHAT real resistance is. In order to see real resistance, they need to cross the Dnieper and come to Western Ukraine. Once the entire territory of Ukraine was called Volyn. This word comes from the word “freedom”, that is, there was freedom here. But then this word began to be used only for the northwestern regions of Ukraine.

We understand our future fate, we understand that we have to die. But can a grain germinate and bear fruit if it doesn’t die? We know what will happen next. We know that the US will refuse to supply weapons to Ukraine, we know that Moscow will establish pro-Russian governments in Eastern Europe that will block aid to Ukraine. We know that Moscow will intensify propaganda, convincing other countries not to help Ukraine, because it is too expensive. We know all this, and yet we cannot allow Russia further than our territory, our task to protect our brothers like Yudah did. With Trump’s help, the Russians will most likely advance further, they may even capture Kyiv. If they turn off the Starlinks, we will have to retreat to the west of Ukraine, but even here we will continue the war. Because we cannot do otherwise. We cannot be cowards and run away. We cannot hide behind someone’s back. Our task is to protect children so that they can continue the fight when they grow up. Only in this case Ukraine will be. What is the point of being alive but living in slavery? Freedom or death!

And the fact that we now live in a free country is the merit of our parents, grandfathers and great-grandfathers who were not afraid and laid down their heads so that we could live. Therefore, we cannot be forced to surrender. This makes no sense. We cannot be intimidated, because we are not afraid, because we know that we are fighting for the truth and God is for us. We cannot be broken, because faith is unbreakable. We cannot be forced because we believe that every person is equal and free to do what they please. Even if everyone is against us, God is with us! And we cannot be defeated because we will never give up.

Does death mean anything when there is something more than death,when there is truth! That is why God placed Ukraine and Russia next to each other, so that Ukraine would not allow evil to spread throughout the world. That is why God never lets the light from Ukraine go out. When Hitler occupied Europe, he met the first resistance in Ukraine. Stalin knew that Hitler had crossed the border, but he did not care what would happen to Ukrainians or Belarusians, he wanted to see us dead just like Hitler (after all, 8 years before he himself carried out the genocide of Ukrainians and killed over 20 million people).

Nevertheless, Ukrainians, even weakened and bled by concentration camps and hunger, began the first resistance. That is why Hitler could not build a single concentration camp here. Because Ukrainians gave their lives so that this would not happen. Similarly, now Ukrainians will lie down with their bones but will not let the Russians further to the West. And we do not care whether someone will help us or not. Because we simply cannot do otherwise. And maybe tomorrow we will be gone, but Ukraine will always be!

I want you to listen to this wonderful song called “Ukraine will always be” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UiWC0XGgphY&list=RDUiWC0XGgphY&start_radio=1

Like a willow tree over a pond, Like a tree stump under a roof, Like a girl in a garden, Like a piece that was gnawed away, Until God gets tired of people, Ukraine will always be! It will be great, even more than this one, On our tattoos, in our hearts, Despite death, dangers, deceptions, Despite everyone, despite everything, it will be!

    No, because I do not read Ukrainian, and I have not personally reviewed the primary sources. There are people who do speak Ukrainian and have extensively studied these sources, such as the people who work at the US Holocaust Memorial Museum.

    Could you do me a favor a clearly state whether you believe the historians working with the US Holocaust Memorial Museum are knowingly lying and fabricating evidence regarding the Holocaust? And if so, would you mind giving me your best guess as to why Holocaust scholars are engaging in this conspiracy?

      Please provide the full names of the documents that the authors of the articles refer to and I will find them myself and send them to you. So that you can verify the truth or falsity of the data. Agreed? This topic is very interesting to me and I want to understand and find the truth.

            Is that a yes or a no to whether a bunch of Holocaust scholars are engaging in a conspiracy to fabricate evidence? Just need one word. I would also accept maybe.

              @Zuzak@hexbear.net @bonnashejve@europe.pub

              From Wikipedia:

              Stepan Andriyovych Bandera (Ukrainian: Степа́н Андрі́йович Банде́ра, IPA: [steˈpɑn ɐnˈd⁽ʲ⁾r⁽ʲ⁾ijowɪtʃ bɐnˈdɛrɐ]; Polish: Stepan Andrijowycz Bandera;[1] 1 January 1909 – 15 October 1959) was a Ukrainian far-right leader of the radical militant wing of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists, the OUN-B.

              The head of the Committee, Yaroslav Stetsko, announced the creation of a Ukrainian state on 30 June 1941, in German-captured Lviv. The proclamation pledged to work with Nazi Germany.

              This guy was definitely a Nazi collaborator at the least. Now let’s settle this discussion or I’ll have to lock it.
