So, The Canadian parliament are now inviting NAZI SS officers in so they can honour / applaud and do standing ovations for them,

@SW-User Of course. No one knew his history. He was actually featured in other articles etc... Somewhat a war hero in the riding of the Speaker of the House.

@SW-User Unfortunately this feeds in perfectly to Russia's false claims that Ukraine is Nazi, their TV is all over it even though Zelensky is part Jewish.

@JimboSaturn Yes :( He isn't "part" Jewish, though, he is Jewish.

@SW-User I stand corrected. He had relatives that were killed in the Holocaust as well.

@SW-User It should have taken about 1.5 nanoseconds to realize that if he fought Russia in WWII he was fighting on the side of Nazism. Russia was an ally of Canada and the UK and USA and Australia and NZ and France and Poland and........

@SW-User There's a DNA test for that? Sorry, no offence - just couldn't resist

@Gorps Don't get me started on DNA tests and Jewish identity.
He's Jewish because his parents and their families before them were Jewish, and because he identifies as such.

@SW-User OK I won't. 🙂 As for someone 'being' a Jew; I've never been sure what people (Jewish or otherwise) meant when they spoke that way. Do they believe it's about ancestry/heredity; or about holding to a religion; maybe just embracing a culture - being related to or hanging out with other 'Jewish' people.

@Gorps It can be any or all of that!
