This kind of thing never ends well. Sometimes nothing happens right away, but once you register a group any future time bad things can happen to them.

There is nothing to confirm this is official, but any east European ultra nationalist group will have an anti semitic fringe.

I don't see how anti-semitic leaflets could've been distributed in a city controlled by pro-Russian gunmen unless the pro-Russian gunmen were told to allow the distribution of the anti-Semitic leaflets.

The city of Donetsk is locked down by the Russian gunmen---the last thing the Russians would've allowed was somebody they didn't know handing out leaflets that they hadn't approved.

AND, the anti-Semitic leaflets were signed by the LEADER of the pro-Russian militia that controls Donetsk.

There appears to be a lot of conflicting online info about this situation - I'm not rushing to judgment about anything until the facts have been more thoroughly vett'ed.

[Shaved Monkey]

Lots of talk of the pro west Ukraine faction being neo-Nazis/fascists
This could well be a propaganda exercise to paint the Russians in a similar light.
Get the pro Zionists sympathy and money flowing.

Lots of BS is being liberally spread by both sides.
There is a lot of resources at stake

If the anti-Semitic material that was handed out by the pro-Russian militia in Donetsk was faked, then how did the evil Ukrainians do it?

Did they use their top secret Ukrainian invisibility cloaks to sneak the fliers into town past the Russian gunmen who control Donetsk? Did they use mind-control to take over the minds of the Russian gunmen stationed downtown to make them hand out the fliers?


You there...pro-Russian gunman wearing a bag over your head and a Russian military uniform with all the insignias taken off...take these anti-semitic fliers and hand them out. I will give you many zlotys in payment.
