On February 24, 2022, Poles rushed to our south-eastern border. The human, often Christian-motivated, compassion impulse pushed thousands of my compatriots to spontaneous gestures of help towards people whom they considered to be refugees from the war and the direct threat to their lives.
In a fit of heart, we remained blind not only to demographics, but also to geography, some of them traveled hundreds of kilometers to collect "refugees" advertised on the Internet, almost no one paid attention to the fact that most of them come from areas that have not been affected by warfare at any time and to this day . Nobody remembered that Ukraine, being a country larger than Poland within its current borders, has huge territorial reserves that allow for free internal migrations of the population. Only a slight propaganda stimulus was enough, intensified by the very fact of war in a country directly bordering Poland - and hearts opened along with the borders.
Repentance came with time, to a very limited extent, and of course, when it was already too late, and the Polish-Ukrainian border crossed over 13 months.10 million 400 thousand Ukrainians.
Population shock
Of course, a significant part of them goes further to the West, to European Union countries with a more extensive system of social benefits than Poland, while some register only in Poland for benefits, receive financial and material assistance, and return to Ukraine. However, even taking this into account and adding a more or less constant number of Ukrainian guest workers from before February 2022, it turns out that at least 4.8 million Ukrainians, i.e. about 14% of the pre-war population, moved to Poland. For a country that, as a result of border changes after World War II and demographic changes, both voluntary and forced, has become almost ethnically homogeneous - this is a shock without precedent in its history. Let's repeat:
in just one year, Poland received eight times more immigrants than all European countries in the memorable year 2015 , hailed as the year of the European migration crisis.
Invitation for mafia and terrorism
For Poles who have been assured for years that migration problems do not concern us, this is certainly a shock and a fundamental, existential change, ultimately questioning the exclusiveness of one nation to decide on matters of its own nation state. In fact, however, as a journalist and war correspondent for many years, I am able to easily point to a similar example of a provoked migration wave, justified by a fundamentally false and artificially created "war and humanitarian threat". Such a moment was the war in Kosovo and the NATO invasion of Yugoslavia in 1999. I perfectly remember these moral blackmails, open borders (especially of Austria, Germany, Italy) and the run, the run of Kosovo Albanians. Not an escape, but a run to a better life, because if they themselves ask, encourage, make it easier, then only a fool would not take advantage of it. no one who remembers the following years, there is no need to recall the origins of the Kosovo mafia, which, still operating under the protection of American and British secret services, almost monopolized drug trafficking channels and human trafficking, additionally enhanced by car theft and minor crime. It was also one of the sources of funding for international terrorism, of which the training camps run by the People's Mujahideen organized by NATO in Albania are known centers. Well, on the borders of Poland, Slovakia, Romania and Moldova with Ukraine, exactly the same thing is happening, only on an even larger scale. Under the guise of 'humanitarian aid', we have allowed several million newcomers and displaced people into the Schengen area, practically without any control, and among them, without the slightest doubt, also thousands of gangsters,
This is an act hostile to Europe , this is another invasion carried out at the behest and under the authority of our Anglo-Saxon occupiers.
What about those fleeing to Russia?
Of course, however, also listening and reading about the so-called Ukrainian migration crisis, we are only learning part of the truth. What we do not learn is that Russia remains one of the countries permanently receiving the largest number of immigrants from Ukraine. Nearly 2.5 million refugees from the eastern, Russian-speaking areas of Ukraine found their way to Russia in the last year alone, and this number does not include the thousands of families evacuated from the Donbass mercilessly bombed by the Kievans. This number increased significantly as the war dragged on, especially as a result of last year's Ukrainian counter-offensives and repressions against the local population in areas reoccupied by the troops of the Kiev junta. These refugees are not covered by international aid, just like ordinary Russians, they are forced to endure the hardships of the economic war and the sanctions that the West is applying against the peoples of the Russian Federation. And yet Russia bears the cost of the imposed war without complaining or whining for clemency.
Ukrainian immigration as a cost
Poland, like other Central European countries, also has no one to complain to, but this is due to our submissive attitude towards Washington, and recently especially London. The demographic change in our territory is clearly planned and deliberate. points out that labor market data are in stark contrast to the scale of displacement.
Only about 900,000 newcomers took up gainful employment or their own business activity in Poland , i.e. only about 19% of the Ukrainian population in Poland. Meanwhile, as a whole, it benefits from the Polish system of benefits, free health care, and pensions that the Polish state pays to Ukrainian seniors on behalf of the Ukrainian state. Therefore, the typical pro-immigration propaganda about the alleged rescue of pension systems thanks to the influx of new workforce is not true. On the contrary, most immigrants place themselves on the side of budgetary costs, and no economy, even stronger than the Polish one, which is struggling with recession and has already gone through 18% inflation, I can assure you as a certified accountant. Reviving the economy through immigration is a lie, a practice that may serve to maintain capitalist accumulation in the short term, but in the long term it is destructive to the national economy by spoiling the domestic labor market.
21st century Nazism
Another aspect is cultural and civilization issues. It is with real sadness that we see our Slavic brothers in the Ukrainians, and we observe the effects of many years of Nazi indoctrination among the newcomers. The state cult
of Stepan Bandera ,
Roman Shukhevych and other Nazi collaborators left a lasting mark on subsequent generations of Ukrainians. A terrible harm has been done to these people by raising them to hate their neighbours, ethnic and religious minorities and all non-cult criminals. Ukraine is an area where de-Nazification is absolutely necessary, and while it is regrettable that it is currently taking place in the form of a fratricidal war, this should not blind us to
opening up the neo-Nazi nature of the current Ukrainian state and its authorities . When we talk about the crimes of the Ukrainian Nazis, we do not mean only the Volhynian Massacre, when in the few summer months of 1943 the Banderites murdered almost 200,000 of their Polish, Jewish, Czech, Armenian and even Ukrainian neighbors. The crime of Nazi genocide was both the burnt offering in the Odessa House of Trade Unions on May 2, 2014, the attack by Ukrainian troops on defenseless demonstrators in Donetsk, demanding language rights, on May 26, 2014, and the crimes of Azov and other Ukrainian Nazi-Special Battalions in the Donbass in 2014-2022, and finally, the murders of prisoners and civilians perpetrated every day by the troops of the Kiev junta during the current war.
These are Nazi criminals, and their recruitment camps are masses of Ukrainian immigrants to Europe. No one from the outside controls what content Ukrainian youth is indoctrinated with, just like in Poland, all mentions of the crimes of the Ukrainian Nazis were removed from school curricula "because you shouldn't annoy the guests". So, 78 years after the end of World War II, we have a Nazi state in the middle of Europe and we ourselves pay for the upbringing and training of its militarized cadres, and at the same time when the governments of our countries persecute their own citizens for even the slightest sign of patriotism, self-defense or a sense of national dignity .
Invasion against Europe
As Europeans, as patriots of our countries and nations, we face an existential threat. The mass migrations of the Ukrainian population to the territory of the European Union threaten to destabilize at least on a macro-regional scale, involve the disorganization of our economies and confront us with an enemy wrongly considered defeated: Nazism. And it is Nazism additionally accumulated through its alliance with Anglo-Saxon imperialism and the interests of international finance. The question is: can we defend ourselves against this threat?
