1. Ahhh...Russia, A pillar of modern society
DR ,   Florida, USA   (02.09.07)
NOT!!!
2. Those Russian Neo Nazi are fing crazy.
AR ,   USA   (02.09.07)
They will kill or beat up anyone who dosnt look like them. They should have gotten a life sentance at the very least.
3. 5 years of prison? Will they get a paroled?
AK   (02.09.07)
But then again, israeli politicians want to set Bargoutti free, and he has far more than a single Jewish man's blood on his hands.
4. 5 years for killing a Jew
Reality Check ,   BaGolan   (02.09.07)
No one is surprised by that sentence, given the little value placed on Jewish life in Russia. A nation whose claim to fame is the pogroms and the "protocols of the elders of zion" is not expected to roduce any greater compassion and humanty
5. Sad state of affairs
Paul ,   Austin, USA   (02.10.07)
Russia is disgustingly flippant when it comes to its very real anti-Jew and racist problems. They give us lip service while mandating fascist/racist policies like the expulsion of Georgians while their hate groups laugh. Russia should be a major focus of Jewish anti-hate efforts, rather than us attacking the so-called "jewhating" EU.
6. russia and france
At   (02.10.07)
Jews should leave Russia and France whilst they can and go Israel
7. russian has always been dangerous for jews.
debra ,   usa   (02.10.07)
nothing has changed.
8. consequences
(02.10.07)
this is a direct result of zionist and israeli oppression and transgressions over others. innocent jews getting oppressed by the majority as innocent palestanians by the idf.
9. Only 5-10 years! that's sick!
Hebrew girl ,   USA   (02.10.07)
10. hahaha
Mustafa ,   Canada   (02.10.07)
5 years?!! WOW... the American soldiers that took pictures of naked Irai prisoners and killed some Iraqi only got 1 years sentence. That's really fair... LMAO.
11. Russia
bachrach Andres ,   Kfar Saba   (02.10.07)
Don;t call them racist,they are not racist,they are fashist I know them all are the same,I know them becouse Iwas in their hands in the sec world war.Thay take us the jewish labor campers in prison with the germans.A lot of jewish young man died in their hands.who would be alive after the war. Andi mi ha kfar
12. Россия
Russian Jew ,   USA   (02.10.07)
Russia - the nadir of western civilization, if you could even call it that.
13. I am shocked they got jail time at all
Russian in NYC ,   New York   (02.10.07)
I am a Russian Jew living in NYC and I am surprised they got jail time at all.. recently a Georgian (nationality, not a US State) woman was killed in front of hundreds of witnesses, and the killer got "a five year suspended sentence" That's Putin's Russia for you
14. Russia
Judy ,   USA   (02.10.07)
It's a sad country, those that live there seem to be cold and poor. Maybe this is a partial explanation for violence.
15. To Paul #5
Mike ,   Atlanta, USA   (02.10.07)
Activists, particularly on the Left, target governments and agencies that they can potentially change. The EU is more pliant than Russia. Israel is more pliant than the Arab.
16. to #8
Alex ,   Toronto, Canada   (02.10.07)
Yea, of course, because before the creation of Israel, the Russians adored the Jews and treated them as equals. Learn some history you ignorant fool.
17. big deal
Antonio ,   Haifa   (02.10.07)
They've been doing this since their country was founded by Ivan the Terrible. It's not anything new. If Jews there don't want to suffer from this, they need to leave that country.
18. 16 years for "Heil Hitler"
Damir ,   Russia   (02.10.07)
That guy was sentenced. Those in Sverdlovsk most probably were underage. I'm afraid today everyone in Russia can get his head cracked. That's why I already have licensed a gun.
19. To 7. When always? May be it was during
eleonor ,   israil   (02.10.07)
revolution when many of bolshevists were jews and they hepled distroyed the churches? Who was man killed the Tsar Nikolaj 2?
20. Attacks in Russia.
John Williams ,   Ogden   (02.11.07)
I suppose 5 to 10 years is not a very long sentence. How long would a Settler get for killing a Palastinian.
