Donetsk (Ukraine) (AFP) - Ukraine's pro-Russian rebel chief on Monday branded the country's leaders "miserable" Jews in an apparent anti-Semitic jibe.

Alexander Zakharchenko, leader of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic, claimed that Kiev's pro-Western leaders were "miserable representatives of the great Jewish people".

"I can't remember a time when Cossacks were led by people who have never held a sword in their hands," Zakharchenko told a press conference in the eastern rebel stronghold of Donetsk, in a reference to Ukraine's nationalist forebears, the Cossacks.

Zakharchenko said that the country's historical nationalists "would turn in their graves if they could see who is running Ukraine."

1. Clipped quotes are the first sign of a miserable distortion. It is an epidemic in web media, pandemic in the

traditional media.

2. But we were told the Ukraine was being led by neo-Nazis by the Putanista brigade on DU...

Are they neo-Nazi Jews, or have the two groups simply learned to coexist, finally, in their hatred of "separatists"?

3. Neither. If you were ever able to read the full quote in context.

But since even the linked article fails to have a single full sentence anyone is free to vent as they please.

As intended.

for one side right, seems RT has never been called out by you for doing this if it is true.

6. Fascists come in all sorts of flavors, and sometimes they have faction fights:

Of course, the difference between 1930s Austria and 2010s Ukraine is the fascists
in the larger adjoining state no longer call themselves fascists-
and their supporters *hate* it when others point out that their leader
looks, walks, and quacks very much like a duck

4. Violent anti-Semitism and conspiracy theories, where have we heard that before?

God, don't let us have another Word War because of these knuckleheads. I don't have enough money to move to the Moon.
