       It's OK for nuclear testing to be "white":

       the family members he’d mourned — his mother, who died of bone
       cancer, his brother who died of stomach cancer, and his sister
       who died of thyroid cancer — and as he listened to the
       consortium’s two-hour presentation, tears streamed down his
       face, and his grief turned into anger.

       > Pino is one of hundreds of thousands of people known as
       “downwinders” — those living in the fallout zone of nuclear test
       sites, exposed to high levels of radiation that increase the
       risk of cancer. While downwinder communities span several states
       including Arizona, Nevada, Oregon and Idaho, as a result of
       decades of nuclear weapons testing, the people of New Mexico
       were the first victims of the atomic bomb, the result of the
       Manhattan Project’s Trinity Test on July 16, 1945 — less than a
       month before the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
       > ...
       > "Oppenheimer," the massive blockbuster biopic of J. Robert
       Oppenheimer, “the father of the atomic bomb,” has sparked
       renewed interest in the dawn of the Atomic Age and prompted
       conversations about its decision not to depict the communities
       that bore the brunt of the fallout.
       >
       > Tina Cordova, founder of TBDC, is hoping that increased
       interest in Oppenheimer and the atomic bomb will cast a
       spotlight on the group's fight for recognition. “We were a
       sacrifice to our country’s quest for nuclear superiority,”
       Cordova said. “They spread more than ten pounds of plutonium
       across the Tularosa Basin. Our government has never come back to
       sort out what happened to us. We’re just collateral damage.”
       > ...
       > For Cordova, the ethnic makeup of Los Alamos and the White
       Sands testing site is central to why they were chosen, and how
       the downwinders have been treated since. “We were the first
       people ever exposed to radiation as the result of an atomic
       bomb, and most of us were Hispanos and Native Americans,” she
       said. “In the 1940s, they depended on us to be uneducated,
       unsophisticated, and unable to stand up for ourselves. We’re not
       those people any longer.”
       > ...
       > “If you don't address the entire history, then you're
       essentially perpetuating a lie. And the idea that no one lived
       here and no one was harmed is a lie.”
       >
       > As radiation contaminated the air, water and soil throughout
       the Tularosa Basin, cancer became a reality — as predictable as
       New Mexico’s yearly monsoons. “We don’t ask if we’re going to
       get cancer, we ask when,” Cordova said. “In my own family, just
       look at the level of loss my mom experienced. She lost my dad,
       her sister, her mother, a sister-in-law. I had cancer myself.
       Imagine the trauma associated with that, and that’s what we live
       with every day.”
       > ...
       > Cordova said the group tried to get in contact with the
       filmmakers while they were shooting in New Mexico but was told
       that there wasn’t interest in meeting with them.

       Turanian vs Aryan blood memory as manifest in modern day
       warfare:
  HTML https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VuGRBraMb0
       Russian armored cavalry = Turanian steppe horse "warriors"
       Japanese fortified infantry = Aryan valley-dwelling kshatriyas
       These steppe dwellers still have the nerve to call Aryan
       fortifications "cowardly", despite the fact that Aryans have to
       step out of their forts to deal any significant damage to the
       enemy. Can we say the same about charioteers/tank operators?

       Anthony Rota resigns as Speaker after honouring Ukrainian

       >
       > Liberal MP Anthony Rota is stepping down as House of Commons
       Speaker after inviting a former Ukrainian soldier who fought in
       a Nazi division to Parliament — a dramatic turn of events that
       will be welcomed by MPs on all sides who said the embarrassing
       incident was unforgivable.
       >
       > "I reiterate my profound regret for my error in recognizing an
       individual in the House."
       >
       > Rota said the "public recognition" he gave to a former Nazi
       soldier "caused pain to individuals and communities," including
       Jewish people, Poles and "other survivors of Nazi atrocities."
       >
       > On Friday, Rota invited Ukrainian veteran Yaroslav Hunka, a
       constituent of his from North Bay, Ont., to sit in the
       parliamentary gallery during Ukrainian President Volodymyr
       Zelenskyy's address to Parliament.
       >
       > Over the weekend, it emerged that Hunka was part of the First
       Ukrainian Division, also known as the Waffen-SS Galicia Division
       or the SS 14th Waffen Division — a voluntary unit under the
       command of the Nazis.

       > Poland takes steps toward extradition
       >
       > The shockwaves from the 98-year-old's appearance in Parliament
       are still being felt.
       >
       > Poland's education minister has said he wants Hunka be
       extradited to face criminal penalties for his role in the
       Galician division, a unit that committed atrocities against
       Poles in the Second World War. Przemysław Czarnek said he
       has "taken steps" to get Hunka to Poland.
       >
       > The Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Centre (FSWC), a Jewish rights
       group, said Rota's action "compromised all 338 MPs" and "handed
       a propaganda victory to Russia."
       >
       > B'nai Brith, another Jewish group, said the government must
       make the Duchesne Commission's 1980s-era report public in its
       entirety so the country can learn the true extent of Ukrainian
       Nazi activities in post-Second World War Canada.
       >
       > Reports suggest as many as 2,000 Ukrainian members of Adolf
       Hitler's Waffen-SS were admitted to Canada after the war — after
       some British prodding. The commission said the number is likely
       lower than that.
       >
       > But Jewish groups have long been critical of how these
       collaborators have been allowed to live in peace in Canada after
       voluntarily serving in Hitler's war machine.
       >
       > Historians have documented how soldiers like Hunka were
       trained at SS facilities in Germany, swore an oath to Hitler and
       received an education in Nazi doctrine.
       >
       > "We cannot move forward as a country from Friday's humiliating
       debacle without the government committing to finally opening its
       wartime records," said Michael Mostyn, B'nai Brith Canada's CEO.

       MP also posed for a picture with the man after Friday's
       festivities.

       having somebody that is affiliated with the SS and the horrific

       > "Has there ever been a greater diplomatic embarrassment in the
       history of our country? I mean it literally.
       >

       support of some key Liberal cabinet ministers — a sign that his
       position had become increasingly tenuous.

       a "Canadian hero" in the House of Commons and prompted a
       standing ovation.

       embarrassment to the House and Canadians," Foreign Affairs
       Minister Mélanie Joly told reporters Tuesday.

       government House leader and worked closely with the Speaker in
       that role, said Rota is "a profoundly good man" and the last few
       days have been "incredibly difficult" for him and those who know

       controversy after members of its House of Commons were
       encouraged to join in a standing ovation for an individual who
       fought in Ukraine with a Nazi military unit accused of war
       crimes during the second world war.
       >
       > Images from the Canadian parliament showed Zelenskiy and the
       Canadian prime minister, Justin Trudeau, standing and applauding
       Hunka, in scenes condemned by Jewish groups. As lawmakers
       cheered, Zelenskiy raised his fist in acknowledgment as Hunka
       saluted from the gallery during two separate standing ovations.
       >
       > The Kremlin on Monday called the incident “outrageous” and
       pictures of Zelenskiy were quickly seized on by pro-Kremlin
       social media accounts.
       >
       > The decision to allow about 600 members of the division to
       live in Canada after the second world war has long been a source
       of controversy in Canada, and was the subject of a government
       commission of inquiry in the 1980s into whether Canada had
       become a haven for war criminals.

       group, said it was “deeply troubled” that a veteran of a Nazi
       division that participated in the genocide of Jews had been
       celebrated.
       >
       > Jewish groups have long campaigned against two memorials in
       Canada connected to Ukrainians who fought on the German side.
       >
       > Dominique Arel, the chair of Ukrainian studies at the
       University of Ottawa, told Canada’s public broadcaster CBC that
       the division Hunka was part of had attracted thousands of
       Ukrainian volunteers, many joining with hopes they could achieve
       Ukrainian independence.
       >
       > Zelenskiy was in Ottawa to bolster support from western allies
       for Ukraine’s fight against the Russian invasion. Vladimir Putin
       has painted his enemies in Ukraine as “neo-Nazis”
       >
       > The row also raises uncomfortable questions surrounding the
       memorialising of prominent Ukrainian figures who fought
       alongside Nazi forces during the war.
       >
       > In his speech to Canadian lawmakers, Zelenskiy noted that the
       city of Edmonton was the first to commemorate victims of the
       Holodomor, the mass famine inflicted on Ukrainians that killed
       millions in the early 1930s. The city erected a memorial in 1983
       in recognition of the 50th anniversary of the famine.
       >
       > On the issue of the Galicia division, the commission’s head,
       Jules Deschênes, ruled that members “should not be indicted as a
       group”.

       > “The members of Galicia division were individually screened
       for security purposes before admission to Canada. Charges of war
       crimes of Galicia division have never been substantiated, either
       in 1950 when they were first preferred, or in 1984 when they
       were renewed, or before this commission.”

       --- Quote ---
       > The fact that Germany cast its imperial vision in racial terms
       exemplified the entanglement of empire and race in World War
       I.30 On October 4, 1914, a group of prominent German
       intellectuals published the  “Manifesto of the 93” defending
       Germany’s invasion of Belgium and conduct during the war in
       general. This spirited defense at times took on racialized
       imagery: “[I]n the east the earth is saturated with the blood of
       women and children unmercifully butchered by the wild Russian
       troops, and in the west dumdum bullets mutilate the breasts of
       our soldiers. Those who have allied themselves with Russians and
       Serbians, and present such a shameful scene to the world as that
       of inciting  Mongolians and negroes against the white race, have
       no right whatever to call themselves upholders of civilization”
       (emphases in the original).31 The manifesto used the language of
       race in defense of Germany’s struggle to defend its freedom, a
       vision of freedom that was thus essentially white.
