OK, you read the entire article, right? - because my take is

that this is not an official 'order' but rather 'leaflets' being disbursed.

Am I mis-reading?

Yes, I read that, too. - OP

The mere thought or mention of something like this just makes my blood run cold. It doesn't matter who is doing it. It should not be allowed. I think NATO needs to do something. What? I don't know, but something. It seems things are developing in a negative way little by little each day. It makes me very nervous. Maybe I'm too old, I don't know.

It makes me very nervous, too. I am Jewish, and I lost family in the Holocaust. There is a wonderful book called "They Thought They Were Free" that tells how and why the Germans fell for Hitler's plan. I think that many young people were not taught about the Holocaust in school, or it was just skimmed over. Every year there is a Yom Hashoah (a Holocaust Remembrance Day) in which the Holocaust and its victims are remembered. This whole thing in the Ukraine just scares me to death. May G-d protect us all.
When I was in Jr. Hi & HS, they skimmed VERY - lightly over the Holocaust. - sm

We really had no idea what it was all about, just something to do with WWII. (Which of course, at age 14-15, seemed like ancient history, and we could care less about it.) But then again, we didn't know the truth. I didn't even know what concentration camps were. I stupidly asked someone once, "If people were in concentration camps, what was it that they were concentrating on?" Because that's what the word meant to me then: concentration = studying. That sort of thing.

And if history isn't taught, then I guess there's a real danger of it repeating itself in the future.
I wish I could remember this man's name. - OP

About 30 years ago, I went to a see a man and a woman who were on a speaking tour in the United States. They were survivors of Auschwitz. The man was a child at the time of being captive. The woman was a young lady then. She has since passed away. I have never in my life been so transfixed by a story. I had, of course, heard a lot about WWII from school and many family members, but nothing like what I heard from that man and woman. I want to say his name was Adolf Hecht, but I am really not sure. I would never want anyone on this earth to suffer such horror ever again. I pray for all, especially the Jews, on these days leading up to Easter.

Thank you for your prayers. I think we all need to support each other in whatever way we can. Hate is a strange thing--it makes its way into lives at unexpected times and unexpected ways. I remember that song in South Pacific about "You've Got To Be Carefully Taught." It talks about "You've got to be carefully taught to hate/people whose eyes are oddly made/and people whose skin is a different shade/you've got to be carefully taught....." The point of the song is that nobody is born hating other people. People learn these attitudes and behaviors. Many years ago I had a sweatshirt that showed two little girls hugging. One little girl was white and the other one was black. The caption said "Nobody's born a bigot." When I see things like that guy who went into the Jewish Center in Kansas and killed three people and hear people using racist language, it makes my blood run cold.

we spent a whole week talking about the Holocaust one year. We each received a little book with a name of a Jew, their age, what camp they were at and whether or not they survived. The drama team also did a play regarding that and they performed for the whole school for free and then opened it up to the public. That was a very eye opening week for me. I knew of the Holocaust but never gave it much thought until my school did that.

Regardless of whether or not those fliers were official or not....it is scary to me and I'm not even Jewish.

would you not be alarmed by such a leaflet? - sm

[ In Reply To ..]
Especially one that reads as follows:

Consequences for non-compliance will result in citizenship being revoked "and you will be forced outside the country with a confiscation of property." A registration fee of $50 would be required, it said.

The leaflet is despicable but its not an - official order. I see that

[ In Reply To ..]
Russia, EU, US, etc. are calling for the disarming of the group that is likely behind these leaflets (didn't read the piece yet, just saw the breaking news headline)
I wonder if we'll end up going to war against - Russia before long. Kinda scary thought.

For those that know little about the Holocaust go to s/m - helper

YouTube videos and type in holocaust. There you will find numerous videos with actual footage of the people and the camps when they were finally liberated. Most of them are pretty short if you are not into reading books about it.

It's one of the worst atrocities in human history, and certainly is nothing that should have been skimmed over in school.

Yes, i was pretty shocked and disgusted when - as an adult I learned

[ In Reply To ..]
that our government knew of the atrocities occurring well before it chose to get involved.

It was not until Japan threatened our economic interests in the Pacific that we engaged.
