because what's going on in Ukraine is emboldening neo-Nazis groups in Europe and Germany is particularly sensitive to that. Even in the US. All you have to do is stop by any of the White Nationalist sites and they're cheering Maiden on for having the courage to display their White Power emblems and nazi pride.

Good for the German Jewish Central Committee but where are all the other groups for minority rights because it's not just Jews they hate, Arabs and Blacks are openly depicted like monkeys in mainstream newspapers. Mums the word I guess. Mums the word about a Svoboda MPs trying to shut down a Feminist/Lesbian march last year because "homosexuality provokes sexually transmitted diseases and AIDS". What great new friends.

Ukrainian newspaper depicts Africans and Arabs as monkeys groping woman



A local newspaper in the western Ukrainian city of Ternopil illustrated its front-page story on Tuesday with a photomontage of monkeys groping a woman to depict African and Arab men who had allegedly gotten into a bar fight. Our Observer, a Congolese student living in Ternopil, tells us this has deeply upset African students at his university, who he says are frequently the target of racist attacks.

Nova Ternopil's article explains that police had to intervene after an African man and an Arab man got into a fight involving a woman at a local bar on the weekend. The headline reads, “Arabs and negroes fight over our prostitutes.” The photomontage shows two monkeys groping a white woman in the foreground. In the background, a group of black men are sitting around a table, having a drink. According to our Observer, the men pictured are students at a local university and had nothing to do with the alleged incident.
