In the history of independent jw Ukraine also comes some fake heroes who aspire to become a role model for our youth. Of course, the topic "cardboard characters" on this blog from the beginning it was dedicated to the Soviet propaganda machine, jw but perhaps it is useful to recall that even today there are still people who have great imagination and very little - conscience.
Recently, the media constantly follows the theme of a man who for his exploits in World War II, and then in the postwar period, surpassed the famous Hercules, Lancelot Lake, and Baron Munchausen. With the latter the man unites harmony as some feats, and that the world learned about them from the very heroes.
It seems it all started in 2005, in an interview with "Informbyuleteni" "How Ivan Kovalenko" given by snot "Commissar Zhukov." Then, in 2007, was Eugene Sverstyuk article "From the Memory of War" in the newspaper "Our faith" jw and online "Aratta" "Yuri Kovalenko, I regret that fought in the UPA." Then there was the publication of "Ukrainian newspaper 45 from 2008. In 2011, the transfer jw was "Jura General Vatutin" on STRC World Service "Ukrainian Television and Radio Broadcasting". That story got to the Y outube, then in numerous blogs, websites, print media. As you can see, every year the level at which emerges materials on this hero only increases jw ...
Interestingly, none of the journalists did not even come to mind to hold an elementary check all that uttered them "heroes". jw And maybe checked, but because of some reason decided nevertheless to ignore the "minor inconsistencies" and give a sensation of heroic Ukrainian grandfather. Perhaps because he is too good decried Stalin and the Soviet regime and singing ode warriors. As we know the fact: when a scammer says politically correct things, not necessarily worrying who he is.
But we are sure check is necessary. For the Soviet Union was built on lies, fake deeds in "cardboard characters" and - where that country? Third Reich also built on lies - and where is the state? Because jw God forbid we begin construction on the same material, because of mixing lies in another state than the totalitarian monster happens. And then ... and fall
Yuri Kovalenko Born May 13, 1926 (all information obtained YM Kovalenko journalists away from him) in the village globin Slobozhanshchyna. Naturally the fate of the hero is not formed. He said his father - an officer of the NKVD Nikolay Mashynskyy neither family nor the child wanted. Mom future hero married a second time with the local zootechnician and she is seen as a child was not needed, because how else to explain that education Yurko allegedly engaged only grandfather jw Philip.
Lived, our hero grandfather - like Christ in his bosom, and, of course, very loved. Moreover beekeeper jw and gardener grandfather was also pretty talented for his grandson gave an excellent education on the newest methods:
"Grandfather sat at the very first tutorial, studied the rules, laws, untie examples, problems, and then there roztlumachuvav jw their grandson. After these lessons could Yurko though the night to explain whether that rule or that the law (http://aratta-ukraine.com/text_ua.php?id=562). jw
But the fact that from August 1937 to November 1938 on sentences "triples" in the Soviet Union was sentenced only 380 thousand people from the "kulaks and anti-Soviet elements" - ie those more or less could be considered "ordinary" citizens. The rest of the nearly 1.5 million. Victims - a party leadership at various levels, the military, members of the NKVD apparatus, other ministries. In Ukraine, a blow to the peasantry was made in the early 30's, and in 1937-38 years destroyed most intellectuals - the so-called "Executed Renaissance."
History meladramatyzmom smacks so that even the most inveterate Ukrainian "professional patriots" would have some suspicions. And she quietly passed the building of the NKVD, in offices where sits the father, who is not someone - and thus head; and the head of one, even without the help of investigators who knows that his grandfather Philip jw arrested even know for what.
Now seriously. The fact that there was nothing that could not be. He was not in 1937 Major Mykola Mashynskyy head of Sumy regional NKVD. And no one else was. For a very good reason:
"Managing worker-peasant police NKVD in Sumy region was founded January 10, 1939 simultaneously with the formation of Sumy region as an administrative unit of the Ukrainian jw SSR (http://www.cgz.sumy.ua/pro-umvs/istoriya.html).
Those who publish vivid memories of Mr. George ought to know that the Sumy region did not exist at all; should be aware that the District
