More About the Event
Professor Lubomyr Luciuk’s latest book, Operation Payback: Soviet Disinformation and Alleged Nazi War Criminals in North America has been published by the Kashtan Press. Based on a recently declassified KGB document. The book exposes how Soviet operatives planted “fake news” stories in Western newspapers in order to provoke discord between the Jewish and Ukrainian diasporas.
Included are a collection of Luciuk’s published op-eds on the debate about alleged Nazi and Soviet war criminals and a selection of documents demonstrating how official inquiries into this matter just after the war, and more recently, concluded that claims made about “thousands” of Nazis hiding in Canada, the USA, and western Europe were “grossly exaggerated.”
Regrettably, the latter message did not undo a false Soviet narrative that continues to be regurgitated by agents of the Russian Federation and their fellow travelers to this day, a successful stratagem for distracting attention from Russia’s ongoing war against Ukraine.
