It's extremely disturbing.
This is how Nazi Germany started.
Jews ordered to register in east Ukraine
Jews in the eastern Ukrainian city of Donetsk where pro-Russian militants have taken over government buildings were told they have to "register" with the Ukrainians who are trying to make the city become part of Russia, according to Israeli media.
Jews emerging from a synagogue say they were handed leaflets that ordered the city's Jews to provide a list of property they own and pay a registration fee "or else have their citizenship revoked, face deportation and see their assets confiscated," reported Ynet News, Israel's largest news website.
Donetsk is the site of an "anti-terrorist" operation by the Ukraine government, which has moved military columns into the region to force out militants who are demanding a referendum be held on joining Russia.
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 that flyers were distributed under his organization's name in Donetsk, but denied any connection to them, Ynet reported.
So... yes they were real flyers but "oh I don't know know anything about them."
WTF.
If OP had actually read the article he posted he wouldnt have written "Ukraine" as if its somehow happening in most of Ukraine or even on the orders of the government but rather "Donetsk(which is at the moment in a state of civil war) getting like nazi germany".
Oh and it wont be like nazi germany, they are far too incompetent for something like that.
I had a feeling you would downplay it.
If you read the story you would have seen that the order to "register" is coming from the separatists. The leader of the temporary government - a joke phrase in any less dangerous a situation - has himself contradicted his authorship of the fliers. It looks like a scam to get money (registration fees) out of (perceived) wealthy locals.
Even if it were a legit attempt to register Jews, it would still be nothing like Nazi Germany.
And, by the way, if Never Again is only meant for Jews then it is vile.
Where did i downplay anything?
Its only happening in Donetsk and not anywhere else. Your threadtitle is basic misinformation.
By the way i read that it only happens in Donetsk in the article you posted.
