So much for Putin babbling about Nazis.

This was the opening of last night’s New York Cantors Concert.

The singer is Yakov Lemmer.

      Obviously, Ukraine has a Jewish president and MPs, and good anti-Semitism legislation since the 2014 revolution got rid of a Russian stooge.

      But there is significant neo-nazism in the east and in militias, and they have been allowed to erect statues to people with a pretty dirty past.

      Putin has seized on this as his cover story for invasion, which is reprehensible. In fact, most of the neo-nazis are probably the pro-Russian elements in the east.

      As always, the problem is: The ones who should read it, won’t read it, and the ones who read it, already know.

    For all you brave people who know nothing of what is going on in Ukraine but bloviate endlessly, now is your chance. Join to fight for the Ukrainian billionaire Zelensky.
