I agree with Bohdan that an intelligent statement should be made public from
aaus. But I think we should first know all the facts and draft the document
in consequence. Unfortunately Jaroslav Junko does not provide the details in
the Ukrains'ka pravda EDITED version. In the discussion provoked by the
article the author intervenes several times and points out that he first
wrote a Polish story (I couldn't read it - to complicated in Polish for me)
and that the "pogrom" label is not in his original story. He makes some very
good points (ukrainian reporters looking for the fast track to polish visas,
etc) but these have very little to do with the "pogrom" story.

I was surprised that Junko's article was not more of the investigative
journalist type.
