==Zelensky regime==
Unreported in the Western media propaganda complex were Zelensky regime's attacks on the Chirstian church. Priests were arrested and property seized in a fruitless hunt for weapons stored in churches. Jacob Dreizen, who is fluent in Russian, summarized the attacks in December 2022:
[[File:SBU raids chuch.PNG |right|300px|thumb|Zelensky regime [[Ukrainian gestapo|gestapo]] raid on the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra monastery, the preeminent center of Christianity since 1051 A.D. Other raids were carried out on the Cyril and Methodius Convent in Transcarpathia, and in Rovno, Vinnitsa, and Zhitomir oblasts looking for "Russian spys" and propaganda.<ref>https://thedreizinreport.com/2022/11/25/dreizin-retires/</ref>]]
{{quotebox-float|"The head (by other accounts, the press office) of the Ukraine’s military intelligence, the G.U.R., suggested the priests be traded for Ukrainian soldiers held by Russia....In reality, the church is GUILTY of sermonizing for peace, and emphasizing (in its prayers and sermons) the historic bonds between Russians and Ukrainians which is seen as a THREAT to the post-2014 regime as, among other sins, it contradicts the “official narrative” (as per school history textbooks) that Ukrainians are an autochthonous ethnos with a distinct lineage and an integral, unified history separate from Russia’s.
In particular, the regime hates that the church, per 1000-plus year tradition refers to “Rus” or “Holy Rus” in its prayers and sermons (e.g., “we pray for the peace of Rus“). Even though (long story short) “Rus“—later Rossiya, or Russia in English—was basically founded in Kiev.
But, the regime hates that word. Regime official history is that the Ukraine has been the Ukraine, since dinosaurs roamed the Earth.
As I wrote before, the church (which is nominally under the Moscow Patriarchate) is also the last cultural bond between the Ukraine and Russia, that is not yet totally suppressed or illegal. So, it has to go. I won’t even be surprised if they dissolve the entire church soon, put its assets under the regime-approved breakaway faction....
It appears, there are now plans to confiscate the Kiev-[[Pechersk Lavra]] and hand it over to the regime-approved breakaway faction. The head of the Ukraine’s National Security and Defense Council, [[Oleksiy Danilov]], a former racketeer from Lugansk, has said something along the lines of, “the site never really belonged to the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, it belongs to the people, and now we’ll see who gets to use it.” Speculation is, the first stage of confiscation will involve allowing the regime-approved breakaway faction to use the site co-equally with the Ukrainian Orthodox Church… before the latter is pushed out entirely.
In general…Anyone, today, in the Ukraine, who challenges the narrative or speaks out in any way is basically GUARANTEED to suffer physical harm and/or detention and prosecution for treason, perhaps disappearance, even death."<ref> https://thedreizinreport.com/2022/11/25/dreizin-retires/</ref>}}
