re: #70 ProLifeLiberal

Heh, well, kinda. He’s all over the place. Being half-Jewish himself (his original surname is Ejdelshtein), he probably wasn’t antisemitic in 1980s, when he was part of the leadership of the Society of Jewish culture “Shalom”. When he got into politics he understood what sells well in Russia, so he began playing with all this aggressive and Russian nationalist rhetoric. On Jewish issues he is all over the place. He doesn’t seem to be a Holocaust denier - in one of his books he says that 6 million Jews were murdered indeed. But on the subsequent pages he brings up Finkelstein’s “Holocaust industry” thesis, etc. - you know how it goes. He also met with Ernst Zuendel, and I think LDPR published one of Juergen Graf’s HD books. In his current speeches though he is not as fire-breathing as one could expect.
