OK, I am a bit too paranoid here. :) Just too worried that monitors will not limit themselves with observing

Report immediately if they do. That should never ever happen.

Not when the US and EU monitors are there with them, they won't.

I prefer Japanese and Korean monitors, myself. You can't go wrong with a Samsung, and moderate-size Sony ones are decently priced... aand you're talking about some other kind of monitors, aren't you?

Lol you guys :D

I find the jewish pamplets stuff troubling as well. I was 'uhoh' when I saw that.

Whether it's an isolated incident with the Donetsk Republic or something sanctioned by the Russian government, no idea. The bit about them needing to pay in US dollars is a little odd.

@ the Russian posters here: Do you know anything about how the Putin government treats Jews? It remains to be seen whether Putin will denounce those that are doing that, doesn't seem like something Putin would want to associate himself with.

Sadly for you NATO hasn't got enough balls to mess with Russians directly.

This site is showing a picture of a poster by the "Donetsk independent republic", asking all Jews to register with the new government or loose their properties. Translation here.

So, do you think this is real? It could be very ugly.

I seriously doubt this is real, but if it is, its a grave mistake. not only it will piss some jews and israelis around the world, it will also hinder the russian propaganda. no, i really don't think the russians/pro russians are stupid enough for this.

Or they could ask for Euros, considering they're in Europe. And the hryvna/grivna isn't going to plummet any faster than the ruble has. Heck, even shekels would make more sense.

Well, 3-4 years ago, shekels would have made a lot of sense, but since we are actively trying to weaken it, i wouldn't bet on NiS (New israeli Shekels) as a foreign currency on the long run (Although it currently still slightly gains strength, despite spending hundreds of millions in buying USD). also, shekels are very not handy when trying to exchange them outside of israel/major israeli tourist destinations.

Seems like you were right. (Actually, I just logged back on Bay12 to post this :p). At last a small piece of good news.

YNet News is confirming the leaflet was distributed. It's a troubling factor in an altogether troubling situation.

It was distributed, but the guys whose name is on the leaflet denied. So it was a false-flag op.

Or they did it but then denied it to try and make it look like opposition to them must be anti-Semitic. A double-false-flag.

Trust me, history has seen stranger things.

It's already starting to cause trouble.

Even if it were a false flag op, the damage has already been done. Damage to who, remains to be seen.

Sounds more like a con-artist, honestly.

What does it actually say about the money?
