Representatives arrive unannounced and without explaining purpose of inspection at Novgorod charity office

ed note–But, but, but…how can this BE? After all, as we are told on a regular basis now by some really, really smart people in the ‘White Nationalist’ neighborhood within this movement, ‘Putin is a Jew’ or is at the very least ‘working for them’ undercover. He has outlawed “Hollercost Denial’…We have pics of him wearing the kippa and his shaking hands with Netanyahu. What more proof do we need? He is ‘one of them’

All joking aside, as we have said here often, sometimes things are what they appear to be and other times they are not. The Russians are playing a very sophisticated political game here and understand that at this moment there are absolutely no points to be scored by getting into circular discussions about what did or did not happen in the camps of WWII as well as any kind of extended, confusing discussions about various topics. Put simply, by virtue of the high-stakes, oftentimes complicated political maze through which all of this is taking place, Putin & co are not in the position of saying things that the rest of us are.

For the second time in one month, Russian prosecutors conducted a surprise inspection at a Jewish educational institution.

The latest inspection occurred earlier this month in Novgorod, a city located 335 miles northwest of Moscow, according to Russian Jewish Congress President Yuri Kanner, who spoke of the incident in an interview published last week on the Russian-language, online edition of the German broadcaster Deutsche Welle.

The Novgorod incident, according to the report, involved a Hebrew class given by the local office of Hesed, a charity with ties to the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee.

According to asianews.it, the inspection occurred on June 1, four days after prosecutors raided a Jewish school in Yekaterinburg, 900 miles east of Moscow, and confiscated some textbooks following complaints that the faculty had incited against members of other faiths.

Students were forced to present identifying documents to representatives of the public prosecutor’s office, who arrived unannounced and without explaining the purpose of the inspection.

Kanner said documents were also seized during the Novgorod inspection, which he characterized as having “a significant psychological impact on the community.” Kanner said the Russian Jewish Congress has not been able to obtain clarifications from Russian authorities on either action.

“It’s difficult to understand or comment on prosecutors’ interest in coming into an organization where people learn the language,” Kanner said. Still, Kanner said he did not think the two inspections were part of “any kind of campaign.”

The inspections in Novgorod and Yekaterinburg coincide with a number of investigations into alleged extremism in Muslim and other faith communities.

A judge in the Ural region near Yekaterinburg ordered new analyses of two Muslim books prosecutors alleged were of an “extremist” nature, forum18.org reported last week.

In February, Russia’s Constitutional Court ruled that freedom of speech is not infringed by outlawing “extremist” material, which the court defined as proclaiming superiority of one religion or belief system over another. The ruling was on a motion concerning the 2011 banning of material from the Chinese spiritual movement Falun Gong.

In May, federal authorities banned two Muslim books, “Faith in the Light of the Qur’an and Sunnah” and “Fortress of the Muslim,” which they said were extremist but which the Sova Center, a Russian human rights watchdog, said “contain no signs of extremism.”

The Sova center listed the banning of these books and the Yekaterinburg Jewish school raid as examples of “misuse of anti-extremism” by authorities.

  1. “complaints that the faculty had incited against members of other faiths”
    OUTRAGEOUS! How can anyone believe by any stretch of imagination anything like that about Jews, known all over the world and through their entire history as the most tolerant and people-loving group, whose religion teaches them to respect other religions and other people. Amazing….

  2. The problem here is that their books have not yet been translated into Russian, and the only people who can read them are the Jews themselves. Although, some particular passages were published in translation before the “revolution” of 1917, those were condemned as being intentionally twisted in by the anti-semites. Nothing is in fact as easy as finding extremist material in the Jewish books. The Talmud alone is filled with outrageously racist and wicked ideas from start to finish, at a rate of about one page out of every ten. Even more so the books on Kabbalah, like the Zohar. But who can read them?
    In order to prove that they are indeed in fact extremist and racist you have to inspect the text with the appropriate level of linguistic expertise. No Jew would ever agree to provide such expertise to the authorities. Those few who did so in the distant past were cursed and condemned by the whole community, for being “traitors”. That rule is also in the Talmud.
    AND,
    “The Russians are playing a very sophisticated political game here and understand that at this moment there are absolutely no points to be scored by getting into circular discussions about what did or did not happen in the camps of WWII…”
    There is a similar problem here, but this time for you, guys. The original reports of the Soviet generals who liberated the camps were brought up from the secret archives recently and from these reports it is clear, that there were no… well, from were I’m writing this now I can say no more, it’s illegal. But here is the link:

    If you translate it you will have the most realistic picture of the situation from the first hands and some things will become clear beyond any doubt. But can you translate it? Probably, not.

  3. Marks analysis made me feel good…I hope he is right! Putin must know about the Jews,but sure does hide it,in his rhetoric, and some actions.
    I see these raids,on Jewish groups as the first real open break out,against them with directness.
    Now let us see RT,and associated press,go back to the really deep Anti-Judaic reportingon topics from lost German Gold,International Finance (Jews),honest UFO discussion (Jews fear that subject ,it takes away from their earth centric view),and the Palestinian s plight.
    Bit,by bit,Putin must move in them,or he is done !
    Czar Nicholas ,Kaiser Wilhelm,are two famous examples of leaders Jews hated, but did their bidding unconsciously (Czar),or had ‘pet Jews), German Kaiser, who hit them ,when necessary.
    The JWNO is Jew land it wants Russia ! Putin must be fully awake.

  4. I’d say that this ‘educational institution’ could have been a cover to conceal other ‘business activities’ or espionage. But, according to this particular report, it is being alleged that it was more of a religious based incident(s).
    This reports says that “the students were forced to present identifying documents to representatives..” ….”who arrived unannounced…”. Good grief how they love to use adverbs and adjectives to portray themselves as victims in everything, Yes, they probably DID have to present their ID’s (so what?), and it wouldn’t make sense for the ‘representatives’ to pick up the phone and kindly say. “Uh excuse me. Hate to bother ya’ll, but we are going to be coming to your school to see what is going on so, if there is something ya’ll don’t want us to see, then I advise tidying things up a wee bit before we arrive. Have a great day and see ya soon.”.

  5. I still do not believe that Vladimir Putin is a Jew. He is a Christian man but do not want to go ahead full blast against the Jews, he is very cautious.

  6. For me, there is something quite not adding up with the war games between NATO, U.S., Russia, And China.
    There are many claims that state that China & Russian troops have been in the US on training missions. I have not looked into it too much but I do believe there is a lot of maneuvering behind the scenes and it could be that China has been selected to be the workhorse & antagonist to bring about a more global order.
    On a side note, the English language has been selected as the global language. Everybody is and has been learning English and I believe there is a reason for that as well. The global seat of power is coming out of England; the City of London. Chinese is not the global language being taught in other countries. It’s English.
