I don't believe Adam Something is a propaganda mouthpiece. Nothing he said was incorrect, IMO. It's context that was lacking. Like you say, the idea that Ukrainians are Saints is hard to take seriously by anyone familiar with WWII, etc.

Anyway, thanks for the piece. I haven't read Hedges recently because I felt he was going into crazy town, but that piece is solid, well written and all too...I don't want to say it...true.
