el By FILS DELISLE “™ Tribune Berlin Correspondent BERLIN — One of the weapons of the anti-Sovieteers is to keep the lies coming SO quickly that by the time number 150 is being answered, lie number 200 is al- Teady on the way. One week Andrei Sakharov is the star_ ‘Witness against the Soviet Union from side Moscow. Then it is Leonid Plyusch, fresh from a Soviet mental Clinic and still out of his mind, in Paris. en it is West German television net- works with laughable films about a sup- Posed Soviet political prison and an ‘‘ex- * Posure’’ of Soviet Embassy employees in Bonnas spies. Or so the narrator says. This week, however, the stage is also Occupied by the massive display .of ra- Cism, poisoned animosity and hatred of Socialism staged in Brussels by bankrupt Israeli leaders and Zionists in'the West- €m world. It is called the Second World Conference of Jewish Communities on Soviet Jewry. ; The conference is a fraud from the Standpoint that the Jewish communities of the socialist countries are not rep- Tesented, that the Zionist organizers aVe no right to speak for Jewry, that the _ Whole basis of the conference, a sup- Posed anti-Semitic policy in the USSR, is _ athundering lie. WORKING WITH ANTI-SEMITES The organizers of the conference are Noted for their craven, cringing attitude towards anti-Semitism in their own coun- tries, especially in the USA and Canada. As will be shown ina further article, they Mclude people who work consciously with fascists, .anti-Semites and even blood-flecked mass murderers of the Jews in the last war. The most bizarre spect of the conference is the basic con- 'adiction on which it flounders. That ~ Contradiction is the fact that. the Soviet Nion is the first country in the world that banned anti-Semitism and every Other form of racism, that some two mill- 1on Jews live happily and productively in € Soviet Union, that it is not the Soviet 80vernment or the Soviet Communist Ity that opposes this normal situation _ Dut the Zionists. The Soviet Constitu- . ton, the Soviet Communist Party and Viet practice have shown since 1917 at Jews can live as normal citizens in the Soviet Union like anybody else. The lOnists deny that. They deny it in gen- at 1, because they hold the incredible, acist and misanthropic view that Jews Sannot live normally among any other Peoples anywhere. They deny it for the a ditional reasons that Zionism is essen- ally a bourgeois nationalist movement, Ominated by enormously wealthy cir- €s and a reactionary, anti-Soviet ideol- By, that the normal and continued exis- =e of Soviet Jews refutes the racist 'Onist dogmas, that the Israeli leaders Completely integrated into the system : of World imperialism and, as aggressors Scupying foreign territory, are not in- & terested in relaxing tensions in the world.

GIVES SHOW AWAY Also on the anti-Soviet scene, of course, are other agents of foreign im- perialism — like Andrei Sakharov in Moscow, and now Leonid Plyusch in Paris. Plyusch several weeks ago pre- - sented a statement to a Paris press con- ference about the horrors he had suf-- fered, supposedly, in Soviet prisons and clinics. The statement was a fraud be- cause Plyusch is mentally unbalanced, is. unable to remember his son and wife, let alone a long list of Soviet horrors, and wasn’t even able to read the statement prepared for him by others. Andrei Sakharov has given us a basis on which to estimate Plyusch when he was still sane, or at any rate moderately operative. Sakharov, like some of the dirtiest most sordid fascist sheets in the world, has in the past made appeals on behalf of Plyusch, when he was still in a Soviet clinic, and the imprisoned Yuri Shukevitch. ! Bracketing both as fighters for free- dom and human rights in the Soviet Union gives the show away. Yuri Shukevitch can be summed up quickly. He is the son of Roman Shukevitch, the ‘‘commander-in-chief” of the Ukrainian traitors organized by the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (UNO) into bandit formations that fought - against the Soviet Union during the war. They attacked Soviet partisans, pillaged . the Ukrainian people, massacred Jews, spread a trail of blood and treachery everywhere. The older Shukevitch, the commander of this so-called Ukrainian insurgent army (UPA), was killed in combat with Soviet troops. Yuri, the son, is now ina Soviet prison because he still wants to continue his father’s war against the Soviet Union. WAS NAZI PRIME MINISTER : That is not only admitted, it is proc- : : tas : f Jaimed, in an article in the magazine 0 ie anti-Bolshevik bloc of nations, called ABN Correspondence, in its issue number five, 1974. The article claims to have eye-witness evidence of a meeting in a Soviet labor camp between a Soviet security official and Yuri Shukevitch. The Soviet official sought to reason with Shukevitch to give up the bankrupt traitorous ideas of his fatherand to take up an honest life. Shukevitch, the article © i s us, screamed at the Soviet offi- ee calied him names, and threatened to ill him. : ee words of the ABN Correspon- dence writer: “go away, scroundrel : says Yurko (Yuri Shukevitch) to an overseer from the KGB who tries to talk him into signing a statement renouncing { Zionists, Anti-Semites, Fascists team up for: The Big: Anti-Soviet Brainwash — his father, ‘““go away or I’ll send you toa mausoleum’’. The author of the article, which carries eulogies to other imprisoned traitors who fought against the Soviet Union during the war and in the peace, is none other than Yaroslav Stetsko. This is the same Yaroslav Stetko who in 1941 was briefly installed in Lvov as ‘‘prime minister of the Ukraine’’ under the Nazis. He lasted barely two weeks, but under his ‘‘prime ministership’’ his OUN supporters, fighting in nazi uniform in the Nightingale Unit of the nazi army, killed:all the Jews they could round up in Lvov, along with alist of Polish intellectuals given them by the nazis, and masses of loyal Ukrai- nians. Yaroslav Stetsko was never tried as a war criminal. He found refuge in Munich under the benevolent eye of the U.S. authorities, and then of Bonn. He is today head of the OUN, operating out of Munich, and of the anti-Bolshevik bloc of nations, of the same address. Stetsko, the OUN and the anti- Bolshevik bloc of nations, which was set up by the OUN during the war, in nazi- occupied Soviet territory, have never given up the aims they pursued as agents of Hitler. The anti-Bolshevik bloc, for example, met in Munich last November 14-16, together with a similar group, the European Freedom Council. Under the guidance of Stetsko, the nazi criminal who supervised the massacres of Jews, Poles and Ukrainians in Lvov in 1941, more of such massacres were called for. In a public statement, Stetsko declared the ABN gathering had denounced the Helsinki detente agreement. Speaking as _ if Hitler had never been defeated, as if half a century of counter-revolutionary plots against the Soviet Union had not ended in dismal failure, he demanded, in his old Hitler style, “‘the destruction of the Soviet empire from within’’. This is a part of the OUN theory that the way to wipe out the Soviet Union is to organize counter-revolution inside the country while it is attacked by the capitalist pow- ers from outside: CONFESSION OF TRUE INTENT Who is to organize the counter- revolution from within? The OUN and its agents inside the USSR. These in- clude the Plyusches left in the country, the Shukevitches, racists and medieval bigots like Andre Moroz, another darling of Stetsko, and still others serving prison sentences for fighting on Hitler’s side during the war, or their contemporary associates. : Thus.we have here a meeting between Andrei Sakharov, the supposed defender of ‘‘human rights’’, who is in fact a de- fender of the assassins of human rights, Plyusch, the demented bourgeois nationalist, the young Shukevitch who - wants to start a war against the Soviet Union all over again, and similar types. As a defender of the ‘‘rights’’ of such people, Sakharov emerges as an ardent associate of racists, anti-Semites, Ukrai- nian Hitlerites who massacred Jews in Former stars Solzhenitsyn and Sakharov. the Ukraine, Ukrainian traitors who fought on Hitler’s side during the war, a crazed and morally debauched interna- tional conspiracy which is now in the service of those who want war, not peace, in the world. It is thus clear that the Nobel Peace Prize for 1975, in an incredible manipula- tion that dragged the whole Nobel Prize idea in the mud, was given to Sakharov, not because of his efforts for peace but “because of his efforts against peace. It is also clear that Sakharov’s appeals on behalf of Plyusch and Shukevitch are a confession of his true intentions, of his moral degeneration into an agent of open fascist, racist and counter-revolutionary movements manipulated from abroad. Sakharov is aware that this moral de- generation has left him isolated among the Soviet masses. He admits that, in a British film interview intended to create sympathy for Sakharov. What it really does is unmask him. Firstly, he regurgi- tates in it his opposition to detente and relaxation of tensions in the world. Sec- ondly, he confesses his. utter repudiation by the Soviet people. Thirdly, he inti- ‘mates that his main significance is to spout anti-Soviet calumnies that can be used abroad. He makes these confes- sions in response to his British ques- tioner who asks what support he enjoys in the Soviet Union. He answers: none, he admits that his ideas have no accep- tance in the country. The main point is, he says, that somebody should be around to express his views, that is to say, that ‘there should be an originating point in- side the Soviet Union for anti-Soviet slanders and lies. : Among ‘the other dreary items that have been floating around in the interna- . tional campaign against co-existence is the notorious film supposedly revealing the “‘horrors’’ of a Soviet political pris- on. This has been shown on French and West German TV. The film is so incredi- bly stupid that one wonders how any- body could fall for it. It lasts barely two minutes. It begins with a barbed wire fence. Then, without sequence, rhyme or reason, there follow dark scenes, mostly too deeply shadowed to make out, which appear to be a shot of another fence behind which tower enormous cranes, then a truck on a road some- where, then the cranes again, then a truck on a road again. Period. This is supposed to unmask the alleged horrors of a Soviet political prison. All that it does is prove that those who show it assume that the public is made up of fools. The international anti-Soviet confer- ence organized for this week in Brussels by the Zionist leaders inside and outside of Israel is a quite different event. It is unprecedented that rabid racists, anti- Arabs and Zionists who hold non- European Jews in contempt should at- tack as anti-Semitic the first state in the world to abolish anti-Semitism and all other forms of racism. Israeli society practices a form of apartheid against its four hundred thousand Arab citizens. It also practices a cruelly racist policy against the more than 60% of the popula- tion who are Jews from Africa and the Orient. : All of this is known to those who have studied: Israel objectively. What is not known, however, is the connection bet- ween Zionists and OUN anti-Semites, the cooperation between Zionists and Ukrainian fascists inside and outside of the Soviet Union, the propagation of anti-Soviet incitement from a common public platform by Zionists and mass murderers of Jews like Yaroslav Stetsko. That story will be told in the third arti-: cle of this series. PACIFIC TRIBUNE—FEBRUARY 20, 1976—Page 9
