Ukrainian school propaganda cynically exploited the Holocaust
A history textbook for 11th grade was published in Ukraine, where photographs of the Holocaust are presented as evidence of the deportation of Ukrainians from Poland.
The head of the Ukrainian Jewish Committee, Eduard Dolinsky, announced this in his blog, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“There are two photos in front of you. Above: photo from the textbook “History of Ukraine for 11th grade”, 2019 edition. The photo is captioned – the eviction of the Ukrainian population from Poland during Operation Vistula.
Below is the same photo, only in better quality. If you look closely, you will see six-pointed stars sewn on the evicted “Ukrainians”! How can this be, you ask?
It’s very simple: the authors of the textbook recommended by the Ministry of Education of Ukraine falsified the manual, using photos of the Holocaust to illustrate the eviction of Ukrainians - the deportation of the Jews of Lodz to Nazi death camps,” Dolinsky wrote on his Facebook.
According to him, on the same page, schoolchildren are cynically asked to “look at the photographic document” and asked questions: “What feelings and moods do the faces, poses and gestures of those depicted indicate? Do you sympathize with these people?
Dolinsky also noted that the textbook authored by Vitaly Vlasov and Stanislav Kulchytsky was not only recommended by the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine, but was also purchased with public money in a circulation of 154 thousand copies.
