COUP IN KYIV?

That book deals about the CIA.

Do you have proof of any of your posts?

It couldn't possibly be that the Oligarchs simply saw economic advantages in aligning with EU?

There's no guarantees that physical persecution of Jews won’t make a comeback, but today it is only one of the more minor strands of xenophobia and racism still blighting humanity.

But only two days passed before allegations of anti-Semitism in Ukraine were once again on the agenda. This time it was in Donetsk, a much larger city in eastern Ukraine, where pro-Russian separatists and forces loyal to Kiev are fighting for control of the region. An invisible hand distributed some flyers accusing the Jews of the city of having sided with the “Banderist” fascists and instructing them to register and list their property with the new separatist authorities and pay a registration fee.

The “People’s Republic of Donetsk” denied it had anything to do with the flyers distributed in its name, but was their denial valid? Was it a local initiative to scare the city’s large Jewish community into fleeing or was this a counter-provocation from the anti-Russian side, taking a page this time out of Vladimir Putin’s playbook? Not directed at the Jews at all but intended to smear the separatists?

... . And while the most obvious conclusion would be that the hatred of Jews is alive and well, I would argue that the real lesson is that the Jews, anywhere in the world, have never been safer at any point in history. I know that sounds counter-intuitive in the wake of recent events, but the very obscurity of Cross, his near-complete isolation on the outermost fringes of America and the fact that so many non-Jews can be found using the facilities and enjoying events at many Jewish community centers, proves just how the Kansas City shooting was an aberration.

In Ukraine, where there have been some individual attacks on Jews and acts of vandalism in the last few months (a far cry from the pogroms and organized persecution of just about every previous generation in the last millennium,) something has happened that is unique in the bloody history of Jews in that land. For the first time, anti-Semitism is something to be ashamed of; every political party, pro-Russian or pro-Kiev, including even the most right-wing ultra-nationalists, are doing everything possible to avoid being tainted with judeophobia, promising that police, militias, armies will be deployed to defend their Jewish neighbors.

In America, hate-crimes are almost always directed at other minority groups; in western Europe, Muslims, Asians and blacks are usually the targets; in Hungary, where the anti-Semitic Jobbik party made impressive gains in the elections two weeks ago, the Jews are secure and confident that the government will not allow any harm to come to them, unlike the Gypsies (Roma) who are frequent targets of racist, often murderous violence.

Two generations ago, there was no question which religion was the most persecuted in the world, but today, in just about every country where there still are Jews, they are protected by the authorities, or they don’t need protection and open anti-Semites are shunned and marginalized. Even the anti-Semitism which is rebranded and channeled into anti-Zionism is grossly exaggerated by the media, not causing any tangible damage to Jews or the Jewish state.

History gives us no guarantees that the physical persecution of Jews won’t make a comeback in the future, but at present we have to recognize that anti-Semitism, while unique in its roots and past, is today only one of the more minor strands of xenophobia and racism still blighting humanity. This is a cause for celebration, not digging in deeper and insisting that the line in the Haggadah, “for in every generation they rise against us to destroy us” must always remain our guiding light.

Some Jewish leaders are finally beginning to understand that. Last week, Richard Benson, the former chief executive of Britain’s Community Security Trust, the body that monitors threats to the Jewish community and prevents links with racist movements, was appointed co-chairman of Tell MAMA, the body tasked with battling anti-Muslim hate crimes. In this blessed age, when Jews have never been safer, it’s time to recognize that there are many other victims of racism and prejudice and let others benefit from our hard-earned expertise in facing hatred and winning.

On the other hand: it seems to be quite unrealistic, too, that the severe tensions in East-Ukraine can be solved by talks in Geneva.

There are signs the situation may have got out of the control of the big players.

Proof is an unreasonable demand

There are oligarchs who control significant parts of the large companies," he said.Yet many of those oligarchs are in favor of moving closer to Europe because they fear Russian influence. For them, it would be a nightmare scenario if Russia annexed eastern Ukraine, where much of the Soviet-era industry they plundered is located.

Their political leanings are far from altruistic, however. "They clearly understand that if a split were to hypothetically happen, their Russian oligarch neighbors would gobble up their wealth," said Vitaly Chernetsky, a University of Kansas professor and president of the American Association for Ukrainian Studies. "Ukraine being an independent state and not splintering is a guarantee for them."

The key question is what do the MAJORITY of Ukrainian people want, namely to break with Russia or not?
I just read a Daily Express article but it was sloppy and didn't say.
Does anybody at A2K know?

The situation seems to become "Lebanese" (= similar to the Syrian occupation of Lebanon in 1976, which only ended in April 2005), only in a bigger scale.
