Slava Naumov: “Today’s horrific incident in Jarosław, Poland, is some kind of grand trump card (pardon the Trumpian vocabulary) for the entire Ukrainophobic movement.
It’s like publicly holding a black mass, drinking an infant’s blood, or crucifying a boy. To say — you doubted, but see, these aren’t sick fantasies, they’re the plain truth!
I remind you, a 31-year-old Ukrainian on the grounds of the Benedictine sisters’ abbey attacked with a knife and wounded 5 people. One priest died; doctors are fighting for the life of another.
There is a social assistance center on the grounds of this monastery; they were taking in Ukrainian refugees en masse right after the full-scale invasion began, and some still continue to live there.
Against the backdrop of far-right rhetoric, every detail in this tragic story is literally and figuratively deadly: a Ukrainian, a knife (yes, a knife!), innocent priests and nuns, and those who suffered were precisely the ones who had reached out to help… And all this in a region where the “pathoprawica” (a splendid term from the Poles themselves) enjoys support.
A literal answer to all the seemingly absurd claims: “We help them, and they only wait to stab us in the back,” “Ungrateful and dangerous,” “crime is rising because of them,” “they hate Poles.” And here they even attacked a church... And there’s no way to find any arguments defending the attacker: the crime is pathological. For the pro-Russian and anti-Ukrainian fringe — this is pure gold.
One can predict the attacker is mentally ill. Because even for Russian money, risking life imprisonment would be too much. Although it’s hard to ignore that the beneficiary is way too obvious.
And the timing strangely coincides with the mobilization of Polish society in the face of a threat, with new air defenses on the border, statements of support for Ukraine, the meeting in the Carpathians, EU activity, etc.
And on the night before the attack in Jarosław, in the Masovian Voivodeship there was a sabotage arson at a Starlink station that was also serving Ukraine.
Some cascade of coincidences, but they all oddly point to the same thing.”
