Well: Leaflet Allegedly Dropped by Pro-Russian Forces Holding Eastern Ukraine Orders All Jews Over 16 Years Old to Register as Jews, Listing All of Their Property They Own
— Ace

Chilling, but at the moment this is very sketchy and unconfirmed.

A leaflet distributed in Donetsk, Ukraine calling for all Jews over 16 years old to register as Jews marred the Jewish communityÂ’s Passover festivities Monday (Passover eve), replacing them with feelings of concern.

The leaflet demanded the cityÂ’s Jews supply a detailed list of all the property they own, or else have their citizenship revoked, face deportion and see their assets confiscated.


However, we have yet no confirmation of this story, nor any admittance that the leaflets are real. The leaflets, after all, could be some kind of agent provocateur operation to discredit the pro-Russian insurgents.

But... I don't know about that. I hate to cast aspersions on a large population, but it's my understanding that Ukraine is fairly anti-semitic. So I don't know what the PR effect of a fake leafletting campaign would be.

Unless those distributing the leaflets think Jews Control The World and hence that any perceived threat to Ukraine's Jewry would result in NATO storming in to repel the Russian insurgents.

Which is its own issue.

Update: I needn't have been as skeptical as I was. They're real.

From USAToday:


The leaflets bore the name of Denis Pushilin, who identified himself as chairman of “Donetsk’s temporary government,” and were distributed near the Donetsk synagogue and other areas, according to the report.

Pushilin acknowledged the flyers were distributed by his organization but he disavowed their content, according to the web site Jews of Kiev, Ynet reportedÂ…

So Pushilin says he doesn't agree with the order, but acknowledges his men are in fact ordering Jews to register.

Jesus wept.

14 Ukrainians, Russians, they're all pretty anti-semitic. Then it could be a provocation, like you say, either by the Ukrainians or the Russians for a double-reverse and a half gainer propaganda. It's all ugly and it's not, alas, at all surprising.

27 As I mentioned in the thread below... Putin has defense dealings with the Israelis... and wants more. and he is not stupid... One of my nightmare scenarios is that the Obama / Kerry team piss off Israel so bad that they look for a new set of allies... Note, the Russians do NOT fund or Arm, the Palestinians.... WE do. The Synthesis of Israeli Military technology, and Russian production and resources... could dramatically alter the balance of power in the world.

Posted by: Romeo13 at April 17, 2014 08:49 AM (84gbM)

28 So, I guess this means Israel will probably get involved at some point. Not militarily, but with covert assets. Call them crazy, but they're pretty serious about that Never Again shit.

Donetsk, a Ukraine province with 4.3 million people - 10 percent of Ukraine's population - and 17,000 Jews, is home to much of the country's heavy industry, and is thus the biggest prize of the eastern regions where pro-Russian separatists have captured government buildings in the past week.

That forced prayer shit (going on in a lot of schools in the first half of the 20th century) was highly objectionable and I think it left a subsequent bad taste in their mouth. I've talked with a lot of older Jewish people who told me tales of this, and how vehemently it was resented. And as with most people, party affiliation tends to be generational. Children generally follow the party affiliation of their parents.

Few actual Christians were comfortable with anyone being exterminated, I'd argue, but the Christians in those countries did an awful lot where they could, working in the underground, fighting to protect people, opposing policies, speaking out against it, working to hide Jews, and so on. And they died for it, were thrown in camps for it, and were destroyed for it.
People claimed to be Christians when it was the dominant religion in an area, but were they? The same attitudes toward Jews are still there, but almost nobody in those countries claims Christianity any longer. Most are atheist or agnostic.
So who's the bad guy here? Is it Christians, or just the culture of those areas? But who do Jews blame?

After the last 5,000 years of abuse the Jews have suffered, I don't think I would blame Israel if they just sent out teams to collect anyone who wanted to come to Israel to live, planted nukes in every capital city in the world, nuked fucking Tehran, cleared every single living thing off the land for 40 miles around Israel's borders, built a fucking Kevlar dome over the country,  and then issued a statement saying the next time anyone so much as made a Jewish-American Princess joke, all the nukes were going to be detonated.


Yeah, that's a little harsh.  I swear if interstellar migration ever occurs from Earth it will be the Jews lifting off and leaving this disgusting planet filled with hateful scum behind. 


And of course nuking it from orbit, because that'd be the only way to be sure they wouldn't be followed to the center of the galaxy and rounded up for execution again.

199 ThinkProgress is reporting that Pushlin denied it. Might be some issues in translation. http://thinkprogress.org/ The original report from Novosti Donbassa said that the leaflet was passed out by “three unidentified men wearing balaclavas and carrying the flag of the Russian Federation” with the aim of causing a conflict, then “to blame the attack on separatists.” The flyers were distributed in the name of the “People’s Republic of Donetsk,” the title that the pro-Russian separatists in the region have given themselves. They also bear the signature of Denis Pushilin, who has been referred to in reports from the region as the “people’s governor.” In an interview with Ukrainian press, Pushilin confirmed that the flyers, marked with the emblem of his organization, were really distributed in Donetsk. But unlike various English translations, in the original interview with Ukrainian media, Pushilin not only rejected the content of the flyers, but also denied that his organization was behind their printing. “Some idiots yesterday were giving out these flyers in targeted areas,” he said, claiming that he had never himself used the “people’s governor” title the flyer bestows on him. Pushilin did not suggest who else may have been handing out the anti-Semetic flyers, but went on to criticize the original site for posting it online.

Posted by: D-Lamp at April 17, 2014 01:20 PM (bb5+k) He wanted to start the campaign on May 15th, but the pro-Soviet Yugoslavs deposed a pro-Nazi government so Hitler invaded that country to punish them. Then he took out Greece. The delay, along with his insistence on not taking Moscow first and going for Kiev, forced him into a winter campaign. Stalin was ready to capitulate, but the winter, and Zhukov's 40 Siberian divisions who were defending against an attack from Japan did him in. Then again, Germany could have won it in Spring/Summer '42 but he split his forces again and was obsessed with Stalingrad. THAT cost him the war.

You Europeans spent endless centuries telling we Jews to get out. Punctuating that with purges, progroms and genocides. Then when we finally had a chance to get back to the ancestral homeland, we went there right away, just as you claimed you wanted us to do. Now you say that it's not okay for us to be there, either.

It wasn't a treaty and they never had nuclear weapons.  They had some nukes on their soil which were guarded by Russians, and could not be armed without PAL codes which were back in Moscow and at best would have taken many months to crack.  Any attempt to seize them would have resulted in a Russian invasion or pre-emptive strike.  They gave up the nukes because they were useless.

They over-corrected for past offenses, and now it's causing damage from the other direction.

264 There were multiple factors on how the Germans screwed up Barbarossa.

As J.J. Sefton says, Serbia revolted from being a Nazi ally so that took a month out of the warm weather.  That revolt was probably one of the best things the British ever did, even though it got the Serbs hammered.   The Balkans continued for the whole war to be a smaller side war because the Italians and their Ustaci allies were competing against the German backed Serbs, there were still Royalists loyal to the Jugo King, Tito and his Communist Partisans; it was a heady and lethal brew.

The Italians were like GM is to Detroit, a net drain.  The Germans went into North Africa because Il Douche's armies could not conquer Egypt.  Greece was not too bad.  But seizing Crete was the last hurrah of the German paratroopers.

So once the Germans sorted out their restive Balkan front, it was on to the big show Barbarossa.  Where the Red Air Force was quickly exterminated.  German panzers, usually Mk IIIs, dashed ahead and encircled large numbers of Russian soldiers only to see many of those Soviet troops escape capture because the German infantry was still predominately on horse.  And the Germans violated the concept of Mass by aiming to seize Leningrad, Stalingrad and the oil fields, and oh by the way Army Group Center which tried to reach Moscow before winter.

It's a fun what-if game to guess what might or might not have happened had Hitler did this, Stalin did that, Churchill or Roosevelt or Hirohito another, but about a billion variables at any given moment determine real-time outcomes for any given event. The logic of 'for want of a shoe the battle was lost' has been faulty since its inception hundreds of years ago.

 

Truth is, Hitler was a poor military planner and strategist. His military plans worked only insofar as he had little to do with them, especially given the extraordinary caliber of generals such as Guderian, Rommel, and Manstein. His order that the Sixth Army in Stalingrad 'fight to the last bullet' rather than attempt a breakout from the Kessel is a good example of this.

Posted by: anon a mouse at April 17, 2014 09:40 AM (gXRIG)

276 The is a casual expression, "that's beyond the pale!" The Pale was very real place, a Jewish Ghetto: From Wikipedia: "The Pale comprised about 20% of the territory of European Russia, and largely corresponded to historical borders of the former Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth; it included much of present-day Lithuania, Belarus, Poland, Moldova, Ukraine, and parts of western Russia. Jews were also excluded from residency at a number of cities within the Pale. A limited number of categories of Jews were allowed to live outside the pale. The Pale, with its large Catholic and Jewish populations, was acquired by the Russian Empire (which was majority Russian Orthodox) in a series of military conquests and diplomatic manoeuvres between 1791 and 1835, and lasted until the fall of the Russian Empire in 1917." It goes on to talk about the further oppression of the Jews, primarily to get them to convert to Russian Orthodox Christianity. Poland was primarily Roman Catholic, and they also persecuted Jews. Germany (before WWI) was Roman Catholic and Lutheran, and did not persecute the Jews in those days, as many rose in business, academia. So oppression of the Jews in that part of the world is about as natural as breathing. This is not any really big surprise, except to the people that think Facebook is some kind of magic. The Jewish experience in the United States has not been perfect, but there has been little "organized" ostracism of the Jews in America. There was a movie in the '50's called "Gentlemen's Agreement" starring Gregory Peck that was meant to illustrate the subtle anti-Semitism that took place in the post -war era. Universities, etc. in the US had quotas (sometimes unwritten) about excluding Jews. There were never pogroms in the US, but the KKK had it in for Jews, as well as Catholics, blacks, etc. Other organizations would say mean things about Jews, too. But saying and thinking mean things was about as far as it usually went.

That he admitted he's not in total control of his Org gives me a little comfort. I'll of course wait to see what happens. He could have lied and gone with it. Instead he takes a beating for being a weak leader within a fledgling government formed only what, a week ago? What he does next will show his true intentions, probably. If he cracks down, then it was rogue operators, or he had an "oh crap" moment. If he gets sacked or killed, well, he wasn't behind it.

292 So with reference to American Jews -- not European or Israeli or global Jews -- there is something that I find baffling. Perhaps someone can set me straight on it.

The vast preponderance of American Jews vote Democratic. Pretty much automatic straight-ticket Democratic. Their bulk of their political donations, which are of considerable size relative to their numbers, again are directed to the Democratic Party.

This is the Democratic Party which repeatedly elected, and has conferred the mantle of secular sainthood, on Franklin Delano Roosevelt.

Let us remember that:

-- When the Nazis were seeking the mass deportation of European Jews, FDR refused to allow those Jews to be brought to America

-- FDR then declined to throw America's diplomatic weight behind attempts to have those same Jews instead deported to Palestine

-- Then, after the Nazi program shifted from deportation to extermination, FDR was informed about it, but refused to authorize bombing the rail lines moving Jews to the death camps

-- And FDR declined to interfere with the Stateside commercial operations of multinational firms who were doing business with Nazi Germany during the Holocaust.

And in return for this profoundly vile and anti-Semitic conduct, American Jews now pledge their undying fealty to Roosevelt's political party!

I have to confess to total goyishness, because I find this behavior entirely incomprehensible. It is utterly beyond me why anyone would ever choose to reciprocate such cruelty -- cruelty with horrible real world consequences -- with loyalty.

Answer: Romans happened. The Crucifixion was, essentially, collateral damage in the Roman campaign against the Jews. B. It's also a dumb thing to say because Christians and Muslims are the people Jews had the most contact with. Yes, Japanese Shinto Buddhists have never persecuted Jews, chiefly because there weren't any fucking Jews in Japan for them to persecute. C. It's also the kind of stupid oversimplification beloved of anti-Christian activists and asshole atheists everywhere. The biggest modern persecutions of Jews (Nazi Germany and Communist Russia) were done by states which either downgraded or actively opposed Christianity.

Uh, What? I knew we were having four blood moons, but I never bothered to check on which dates they fell.


Is this true? If so, that is freaking ominous.

Four consecutive blood moons,     all     happening on four jewish    holidays.    Also happened in 1492, 1948, and 1967

It should be noted the Romans weren't yet primarily Christians when Judea was wiped off the map and its surviving inhabitants sold into slavery.

 

Now a Christian myself, I've been supportive of Israel most of my life, hold no prejudice against Jewish people, and believe the United States should do all it can to ensure the survival of the Jewish state. That said, I absolutely refuse to share any kind of collective blame for Jewish hardships and persecutions by various and sundry governments and religious groups over the centuries.  I also refuse to take any blame or feel any guilt for Dred Scott, Jim Crow,  the Battle of Wounded Knee, or any other historical crime or injustice over which I personally had no say, voice, or vote whatsoever. I don't approve, didn't do it, wasn't there--and neither, for that matter, were those who are now seemingly demanding that I feel guilty about it.

 

The whole idea of generational collective guilt is bullshit.

And what's incredible is that German Jews (not counting the observant orthodox) were so assimilated into that society, or so they thought, that they considered themselves to be more German than German. Had an uncle on my dad's side in Cologne who got out just after Kristallnacht. In fact, his roommate was a full-on brownshirt and helped get him the hell out and to the USA. Ironically, he was a tool and die maker and actually worked on the first reactor at Stagg Field and the Manhattan Project.

346 People now don't realize why "Zionism" started, as much as a cultural expression of Judaism as a place for Jews to settle again and live together without being oppressed. Anti Jewish sentiment existed well before WWII, check out the Dreyfuss Affair French military man framed as a spy and convicted pretty much solely because he was Jewish One of the observers of the trial was a man named Schecter. Who saw what happened to Dreyfuss and said if that can happen to an assimilated Jew in "modern" France, it can happen anywhere And they led his to start the Zionist movement, and they began purchasing land. In the 1890s

Often populations are motivated by simple emotions such as greed, envy, lust, jealousy, etc. The concept of "corruption of blood" is merely tribal feuding carried to the next level. Rational men have always been a minority. Dare I once again say that easily led/driven "Sheep" make up a substantial portion of our populace?

353 The Austro-Hungarian journalist Theodor Herzl appeared profoundly moved by the Dreyfus affair, which followed his debut as a correspondent for the Neue Freie Presse of Vienna and was present at the degradation of Dreyfus in 1895. "The Affair [...] acted as a catalyst in the conversion of Herzl". Before the wave of antisemitism that accompanied the degradation Herzl was "convinced of the need to resolve the Jewish question", which became "an obsession for him". In Der Judenstaat (State of the Jews), he considered that: "if France – bastion of emancipation, progress and universal socialism – [can] get caught up in a maelstrom of antisemitism and let the Parisian crowd chant 'Kill the Jews!' Where can they they be safe once again – if not in their own country? Assimilation does not solve the problem because the Gentile world will not allow it as the Dreyfus affair has so clearly demonstrated".[ and that led to zionism

"  And what's incredible is that German Jews (not counting the observant orthodox) were so assimilated into that society, or so they thought, that they considered themselves to be more German than German."

 

Yes, this is a huge part of the tragedy.  Germany was "das Land der Dichter und Denker", the land of poets and thinkers.  It was at the forefront of chemistry, engineering, philosophy and the arts.  Many of its intellectual leaders were Jewish, and they just couldn't fathom that what was happening around them was actually happening there.

356 Except during WW2, Christians were persecuted, thrown into camps, and killed for opposing the Nazis, protecting Jews, and fighting in the underground. Ask Bonhoeffer how much he helped the Nazis. Ask the tens of thousands of Christians slaughtered in Poland for being Roman Catholic.
Sure, lots of people who claimed to be culturally Christian at the time supported Nazis and antisemitism. So did lots of atheists and agnostics and other religions.
Those same cultures, those same peoples generations later are still the same antisemites, but now almost no one in Germany, France, and Italy say they are Christians any longer.
In other words, it was not the Christianity, it was the culture of the people, their traditions and heritage, not their faith that was the problem.
The truth is, the opposition to Christianity has far less to do with actual history and more to do with leftist ideology being the de facto religion of the modern western Jew.

I think you can buy it here in Canada, and also in the USA. There was a copy in my high-school library (English translation). I tried to read it, but it's unreadable trash. I really doubt very many decent people, of any background, would become Nazis from reading Mein Kampf, it's such turgid unreadable crap.



It's one of those books that the true believers buy, to prove they ARE a true believer. Kinda like "Dreams of My Father".

359 Just finished reading the russian/ukranian souces - Pushilin DOES NOT acknowledge that his men are responsible for the leaflet, but denies it as a false flag. Pushilin claims that the leaflet is betrayed by the title it attributes to him - 'people's gubernator'. An interesting thing is that it is mostly Ukranian Media (prior to the leaflet) that calls Pushin a 'people's gubernator' when he became a replacement for arrested Pavel Gubarev. The latter did call himself people's gubernator. Pushilin has been referring to himself as the 'chairman of the temporary government of the Republic of Donbas. Potato Potatoe? Decide for yourself

I will have to look up Ostkrieg. The most factual and well-documented (and mapped) history of Barbarossa and Blau that I have read so far was prepared by the Department of the Army (ours, not theirs) in 1955.  Publication No. 20-261a.  Dry but fact-filled.

Among other things, it mentions that by the beginning of December the Germans had suffered almost 750,000 casualties, 65-75% of their tanks had been put out of action, and their army in the east had declined in strength from the equivalent of 145 divisions to around 83.  While during the same period the Russian strength had actually increased from the pre-war estimate of 203 infantry and cavalry divisions and 46 armored brigades to 303 infantry/cavalry divisions and 51 armored brigades.

The Germans made mistakes, to be sure, but so did the Russians.  And for the bottom line numbers to be running so heavily against the Germans even after the "successful" campaigning season of 1941 indicates that the Wehrmacht never really stood a chance.
