I hope the US, Canada, Ukraine and the EU are happy to learn what their vote AGAINST the proposed UN resolution on combating the proliferation of Neo-nazism and similar ideologies may have unleashed once again upon Jewish people.

«“This march is particularly offensive because it is taking place where locals and Nazis murdered more than 10,000 Jews in one day,” Dovid Katz, a US-born Jewish scholar who moved to the capital Vilnius 16 years ago told the daily.

Katz, who edits a website called DefendingHistory.com, was referring to Kaunas massacre of October 29, 1941, where Nazi death squads, collaborating with Lithuanian partisans, killed 2,007 Jewish men, 2,920 women, and 4,273 children in a single day. It was the single worst massacre of Jews in the Baltics during the war.“»
