Huh, odd. I wonder what gas they used.

[Lamanov]

I don't think that's the most important thing right now. :rolleyes:

[Yehuda Stern]

Anyone has more concrete information about the nature of the demonstration and the participants?

[Vendetta]

What's this UPA?

[Red October]

Huh, odd. I wonder what gas they used.

The article says tear gas. I'd like to know how they got a hold of that. But the more worrying thing here is that fascists were able to marshal this much strength and use stuff like gas. Ukraine needs to get it's shit together.

UPA was a Ukranian nationalist army in WWII; it fought Soviets and Nazis (but, of course, it felt it was better off when it fought Soviets with the help of Nazis).

Eastern Europe has a surprisingly fertile environment for fascists.

It's not that surprising. Decades of nationalist and anti-Semitic education and poverty, both before and after the fall of Stalinism, do the work just fine.
