Ukrainian Jews Told To Register Or Be Deported

Ukrainian Jews leaving Passover eve prayers were handed leaflets ordering them to either register with an interim government that is trying to make the eastern province of Donetsk Russian or face deportation.

But the pro-Russian separatist leader of Donetsk whose name was on the leaflets denied his organization was behind their printing, raising doubts about their authenticity and origin

"Some idiots yesterday were giving out these flyers in targeted areas," Denis Pushilin said in an interview with Ukrainian press, the website Think Progress reported Thursday.

The alarming report on the flyers in Ynet News, Israel's largest news website, said armed, masked men were waiting outside one synagogue to hand worshipers leaflets telling them to register with separatist forces.

The flyers said all Jews in the province over the age of 16 must register, provide a list of property they own and pay a registration fee of about $50 or "else have their citizenship revoked, face deportation and see their assets confiscated."

The leaflets also were handed out in other areas where pro-Russian activists have defied an ultimatum from Kiev to surrender, and asserted Donetsk is an independent "people's republic."

Flyers call for Jews to register with pro-Russians in Ukrainian city

Pro-Russian separatists from Donetsk in eastern Ukraine denied any involvement in the circulation of flyers calling on Jews to register with separatists and pay special taxes. The flyers were distributed earlier this week in the city, where pro-Russian separatists led by Denis Pushilin this month took over several government buildings and declared their secession from Ukraine as the Donetsk Republic amid a standoff with authorities.

The flyers were official-looking documents that carried what was presented as Pushilin’s signature, but the news site tvrain.ru on Wednesday quoted Pushilin as denying any connection to the flyers, calling them a provocation.

On Tuesday, the news website novosti.dn.ua reported that the flyers were handed out that day by three unidentified men in balaclava masks carrying a flag of the Russian Federation. According to the report, the men distributed the flyers next to a local synagogue. The website quoted unnamed sources from the local Jewish community as saying that the flyers were an attempt to provoke a conflict and blame the attack on the separatists.

Several anti-Semitic attacks, including a stabbing and the attempted torching of a synagogue, have occurred in Ukraine since the eruption in November of a revolution over the perceived pro-Russian policies of former President Viktor Yanukvych. He was ousted from power in February.

Many supporters of the revolution blamed pro-Russian provocateurs for the attacks.

Valerie as I read this, I felt sick inside. I can only imagine another Holocaust. Hitler started out registering Jewish people and then deportation too. If anyone has read what Hitler did to Jews and Christians and anyone else he felt was offensive, it is the most horrific reading what happened to those poor people under Nazi rule and captivity.

Blessings to Israel, the Jewish homeland. I pray for the peace of Jerusalem and protection over the Jewish nation and Jewish people everywhere.

Maranatha,

Julie

Valerie and Julie, I heard about this too today on the news. It gave me a sick feeling in my stomach as well, all I could think of was Hitler and the Holocaust. Why are Jews so persecuted, I mean I know the reason, I know its a supernatural hate. Its just there is no logic to it, they have been a rejected people for generations. I have always wondered, the tribulation is called the time of Jacobs trouble, it will not be a walk in the park for the Jews obviously, But it could never be as bad or equal to the Holocaust, Could it??? I certainly hope not.

Julie & Lucy, Thank you for your replies. I believe the Bible, clearly
states as to why, the Jewish people suffer.

My heart goes out to God's chosen people the Jews. God has a great love for His chosen people, however, before Jesus comes to bring, true lasting peace for the Jewish nation, and the world; there is much suffering still ahead for God's chosen people. Jesus knew this and the Lord wept over Jerusalem:

Luke 19:41

Jesus Weeps over Jerusalem

41 When He approached Jerusalem, He saw the city and wept over it, 42 saying, "If you had known in this day, even you, the things which make for peace! But now they have been hidden from your eyes.…

Luke 13:34
"Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were not willing.

The Crucifixion

Luke 23:29

…27 And following Him was a large crowd of the people, and of women who were mourning and lamenting Him. 28But Jesus turning to them said, "Daughters of Jerusalem, stop weeping for Me, but weep for yourselves and for your children. 29"For behold, the days are coming when they will say, 'Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bore, and the breasts that never nursed.'…

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

23:26-31 We have here the blessed Jesus, the Lamb of God, led as a lamb to the slaughter, to the sacrifice. Though many reproached and reviled him, yet some pitied him. But the death of Christ was his victory and triumph over his enemies: it was our deliverance, the purchase of eternal life for us. Therefore weep not for him, but let us weep for our own sins, and the sins of our children, which caused his death; and weep for fear of the miseries we shall bring upon ourselves, if we slight his love, and reject his grace. If God delivered him up to such sufferings as these, because he was made a sacrifice for sin, what will he do with sinners themselves, who make themselves a dry tree, a corrupt and wicked generation, and good for nothing! The bitter sufferings of our Lord Jesus should make us stand in awe of the justice of God. The best saints, compared with Christ, are dry trees; if he suffer, why may not they expect to suffer? And what then shall the d a m nation of sinners be! Even the sufferings of Christ preach terror to obstinate transgressors.


Please pray for the peace of Jerusalem, and for God's chosen people. Many will perish, however many will be saved in the end. Please pray for all who are lost all over the world, so that they too, may be saved in the end. For God desires that none should perish but that all would be saved. Thanks be to God.

For rejecting God's saving grace through Jesus, many inhabitants of the Earth will suffer God's wrath during the tribulation.

Lord have mercy on all of us, for all have sinned, and have come short of God's Glory.

Maranatha!

Valerie

When you see a headline like this it just makes your blood run cold! Shades of Hitler emrging again. I expect to see an outflow of Jewish families from Ukraine to Israel very soon. They must go home to be free and safe. In fact, from all across the world it is time for the Jewish people to return to their homeland and under the wings of God. Praying for the true peace of Jerusaalem.

Texas Sue,

I totally agree it is time for all Jewish people to go back home
especially the Ukrainian Jews, and here is an article that total agrees
with our feelings as well.

Jews urged to flee Ukraine by Holocaust survivor

ALL Jewish people should leave Ukraine at once, a Holocaust survivor warned last night, after “grotesque” anti-Semitic leaflets were handed out in the country. The pamphlets and posters, distributed in the eastern Ukraine city of Donetsk, demanded that the Jewish population register, pay a new tax or leave.
