Looks like duelling propaganda to me, as most of the “news” about Ukraine is in fact.

Pro-Russian official denies involvement in notice telling Jews to register, aide says

A spokesman for a pro-Russian official whose name was on flyers telling Jews in one restive Ukrainian city to register denied that their organization had any role in the leaflets — and accused pro-Ukrainian groups of orchestrating the controversy.

The leaflets were first reported in Israel’s Ynet News. The news site said the notices were circulating in the eastern Ukrainian city of Donetsk, demanding that Jews register — as well as provide a list of property they own — or else face deportation and revocation of citizenship. Pro-Russian activists have asserted partial control over some government buildings in that city.

Ynet reported that the notices, sent as the Passover holiday began, were signed by Denis Pushilin, chairman of Donetsk’s temporary government.

But a spokesman for Pushilin told Fox News their organization denies being behind the flyers or distributing them. The spokesman accused pro-Ukrainian groups of circulating them as a false flag operation to cause an international incident.

An Israeli official also told Fox News that the issue was brought to the attention of the Israeli embassy and foreign ministry, though they also presume the leaflets were handed out by local militia members as a kind of provocation. The official said the notices were distributed by masked men.

The notices reportedly were sent to areas where pro-Russian activists have declared the region as a “people’s republic” in defiance of the central Ukrainian government.

They’re desperately trying to rally support for throwing some real weight into the struggle.

Repub CongressCritters need their hard-line conservatives ( I used to be one, way out, hard right ) behind them.

They try anti-Russia, anti-communist, bring up the Jews, try to get support from the Israel corner. They have hard-line anti-muslims, but Russia attacks the muslims, so muslims can’t be the enemy in this case.

One guy the other day actually said the Russians are behind Al-Qada !

Desperado.

The left will dutifully allow odumbo to war as much as he wants and not say a peep.

It’s the right that they need to dupe.

But the story is so thin it’s not holding up.

Also, economically, EU, US and UK are not in a good place already. Also, not with their domestic politics. US, for example - no work, mad at government, in debt, starting to get aware. US sheeple not so into war these days. They start asking questions, reading, thinking. In the old days they could be revved up quick and info was closely guarded.

I hope Putin and Russian leadership don’t get deluded and think they’re in some “great situation” themselves - cuz they’re not. They’re being used just like every other country is.

Why this push to globalism, I always wonder - how such smart people “at the top” can be so stupid.
