    Susan Rice is referring to leaflets demanding that Jews in eastern Ukraine register with a self-proclaimed local authority or face consequences. She says the leaflets have no place in the 21st century.

    Rice says Secretary of State John Kerry has forcefully conveyed that view to his Russian counterpart.

    Rice also says the U.S. will be watching Russia closely to see whether it upholds its end of a deal to de-escalate tensions in Ukraine. But she’s not offering a specific timeline for making that judgment.

    Rice’s comments come as pro-Russian insurgents are refusing to disarm or stop occupying government buildings in eastern Ukraine in accordance with the deal.

    This again proves as I have posted more than once before, that Ukrainians has and still harbors the worst Antisemitism Jews have known the past couple of centuries, do not feel sorry for these sub-humans, the very ones who still (officially) portray a mass murder as a hero.

    The Kossaks and the Tartars come from this area. Not a great location to grow up. It is fitting that the US president protest such horrible actions.

    I guess all is well now that he’s disgusted. Joke still on Oblamo.

    There were plenty of Ukrainian SS during World War Two, who were just as savage, if not more so, than the German SS. They delighted in torturing and killing Yidden, men, women, and children; many of them were guards at concentration camps. The Babi Yar massacre took place in the Kiev area; Demjanjuk was a Ukrainian. Do not feel sorry for them, as they disgust me to this day. As far as I’m concerned, if the Russians want to take over the Ukraine, let them have it. They will teach them a lesson, which they won’t forget. Obama should keep his nose out of that area. This is a problem which the Russians should deal with. They dealt with it, in the closing days of World War Two, when they made mince meat of the Ukrainian SS and their cohorts. If necessary, they will deal with it again.

    The headline is misleading. It is the Russiansand their ethnic Russian allies in Eastern Ukraine who demand the Jews to register and spread those anti-Semitic leaflets, which have caused President Obama’s disgust. Ukrainians, on the opposite, are doing their best to protect the local Jews against these anti-Semite.
