Russia's nationalists call for ban on Jewish groups

Russia's nationalist lawmakers have asked the prosecutor general to ban all Jewish organizations because of their "extremist" views, in a vitriolic call ahead of this week's 60th anniversary of the liberation of the Nazi death camp at Auschwitz.

(snip)

It called on the Russian courts to ban "all Jewish religious and community groups" which the statement also described as "anti-Christian" and accused Jews of staging attacks against their own community as a provocation so they could pin blame on others.

"We would like to underline that many anti-Jewish acts around the world are staged by the Jews themselves as a provocation in order to take punitive measures against patriots," the letter said.

The Russian state officially does not subscribe to any religion but Orthodox Christians dominate the country's religious life and often enter into politics with the patriarch's frequent meetings with Russian President Vladimir Putin and some visiting heads of state.

sounded to blame Jews for causing anti-semitism by the fact of being Jewish!

:-)

But I have heard some falks go the "Jews are "anti-Christian" and stage attacks against their own community as a provocation so they could pin blame on others" route -

again there are only two choices - the speaker is an idiot - or an anti-semite.
