Should we expect another wave of anti-Semitic acts in Kyrgyzstan, according to the type that was observed in the past year? So the question given the Jewish community of this Central Asian republic, after June 30 the parliament in Bishkek has called for presidential elections on October 30. In turn, Israeli government officials who are monitoring the situation in the Diaspora, have not ruled out against the backdrop of the presidential election Kyrgyzstan may be in a state of political chaos. According to the Israelis, in which case there may be repeated attacks against Jewish targets, though, if the country again will cover inter-ethnic clashes, like last summer, they will affect mostly Kyrgyz and Uzbeks. However, in the case of another outbreak of violence could be affected and the Jews, especially against the background of anti-Semitic propaganda in the press kirgizoyazychnoy in recent months. “The presidential election will be the final stage of the process that began after a coup two years ago. Six months after the revolution, a referendum was held and it was decided to move to a parliamentary-presidential form of government. A year ago, the parliamentary elections, and now all the president – said the portal Chabad envoy IzRus Kyrgyzstan Arie Reichman. – While the rest of this process is not completed, and there is no stable government, in society there is a certain tension. All are hoping that after the elections here to return stability and peace, as it was before. Citizens of the Kyrgyz Republic as a whole and Jews in particular, hope that the new government will be loyal to all the inhabitants of the country. ” Although the struggle for power in the country not directly affected by the Jews against the anti-Semitic propaganda in the press last spring some of the manifestations of Jew-hatred were “practical” in nature. So, after the April 2010 coup metropolitan synagogue was attacked twice (in April and September) and in the days following the change of power at the Government House fence hung a poster of anti-Semitic content. Despite this, Israeli officials are monitoring the situation, noted that local Jews are in no hurry to repatriate to their historic homeland. The main motive – economic considerations. People do not want to throw the acquired property, especially for a song to sell their apartments. Especially since most of the Jews regularly receive humanitarian assistance, particularly from the “Joint” (“Hesed”). According to sources, the portal IzRus, do not expect the outcome of the remaining Jews in Kyrgyzstan, even in the event of a sharp aggravation of the situation in this country in the fall. Arie Reichman noted in this connection that more than half of the local Jews – are middle-aged and elderly people (the number of persons entitled to repatriation, according to Israeli authorities, about 1,100 people). “We are a Jewish school and kindergarten, there are few Jewish students in universities, but most young people immigrated to Israel,” – said our source. A particularly bright representative of the older generation of the community served, Jan E. Fisher. He died in Bishkek on Friday, June 30, at 74 years old. This man was the most prominent statesman of Kyrgyzstan’s Jewish nationality. In the late ’80s, he served as deputy chairman of the Council of Ministers, the Kirghiz SSR, in 1992-96 years – with the rank of Secretary of State headed by the State Commission for Emergency Situations, and within two years he was Minister for Cooperation with CIS countries. In a communique issued by the Government of Kyrgyzstan in connection with the death of Fisher, noted: “During his career in the fields of construction under his leadership, built hundreds of industrial and civil facilities that serve our nation to this day.” In addition, the Fisher “made a significant contribution to strengthening and interaction with the countries of the Commonwealth.” In the last year of life, after the massive inter-ethnic clashes in the south, he was “one of the first head of construction and reconstruction work in the Osh and Jalal-Abad.” As noted by Arie Reichman, who was personally acquainted with Jan Fischer, former deputy prime minister of the Kyrgyz Soviet Socialist Republic was not the only Jew who made a significant contribution to the country. “If you look at the history of the Jewish community, there were many Jews who have distinguished themselves in various fields. There were Jews in the government, and the educational system and in health – said the rabbi. – But recently, Fisher was, indeed, more than any other members of the community associated with the government. It was not long in government, but has been involved in several public construction projects. It was a Jew, who did much for the country. ” According to our interlocutor, in the last year of life, Fisher helped a lot of the Jewish community, especially when it came to relations with the authorities.

The government still decided to approve the appointment of “conditional”: before starting his duties, both appointees to the procedure prescribed by the refusal of foreign citizenship. Approval of the candidacy of Daniel Taub, until the appointment of an ambassador to London has never worked in diplomatic missions abroad, has caused strong dissatisfaction with union MFA. The union condemned the appointment as Taub caused by political rather than professional reasons. (News.israelinfo.ru)

A year ago, a native of the former Soviet Union, Chaim Perelman, was arrested by the police with the assistance of the General Security Service (Shin Bet). The central media declared him a “Jewish terrorist” who killed more Arabs. Just last week, found that over the past ten months gosinstantsii lost all interest in this case, no charges against Perelman was not and will not be nominated. Whether to pay for the suffering of an innocent man who was arrested and held his month in jail? Probably not. “According to Israeli law, virtually impossible to obtain compensation from the police for his arrest, even if the court acquitted person. By law, the question of compensation can only go in if the initial arrest was not legally binding. If the arrest of its extension and then the indictment was under an at least some justification, that the police can not bring any claim, “- said the portal IzRus former senior officer of the Police Department to combat international crime (YAHBAL), lawyer Alex Raskin, commenting on the work of Chaim Perelman. “When police arrest the extension does not accidentally use the term” reayot lehora “-” as evidence. “That is, in extending the arrest credibility of witnesses and other evidence are not important, but it is enough that they existed. In other words, even if trial evidence on which the arrest was extended, and the convictions of “fall apart”, the police still can not make a claim – it was acting within the law “- said the lawyer. According to him, plead with the police makes sense only if the evidence had been fabricated by the guardians of order, or in fact did not exist any evidence, even those that can be called “as evidence.” Sue as a source of evidence on which the person was arrested, it is possible, provided that the information provided by police, was known to be false. “Someone said he had seen, as you have committed a crime. Such a declaration could be the basis, as the arrest and indictment. Even if the court find that the witness was mistaken, will not sue anybody. On the one hand The police acted on the basis of law, and, on the other, declaring did not aim to specify you. In a situation where security forces were involved in (in this case, the Shin Bet), is much more complicated – they have the right not to disclose all sources of information on basis of which the person was detained “, – concluded Raskin. As reported by the portal IzRus, Chaim Perelman was arrested on 13 July last year. He was suspected of committing three murders and seven attempted murders of Arabs in Jerusalem in 1998. Perelman categorically denied any involvement in these crimes. He spent a month in prison and then two more weeks under house arrest. Over the past ten months, representatives of law enforcement and security services did not apply to him. June 30 at the press-service portal IzRus prosecutors said that Perelman case “did not come” before this court and advised to contact the police. In turn, the metropolitan district police (in charge of the Perelman) said they did not have data on the case. As a consequence, workers in the press service of the police forward the request to the General Security Service (Shin Bet), or rather the office of prime minister, who reports to the organization (as opposed to the FBI or the Federal Security Service, Shin Bet security service has its own news service). The official response, received on this subject from the press service of the Office of the Prime Minister stated: “No new suspicions against Chaim Perelman no”. (Izrus.co.il)

Portal ZMAN.com published July 3, Vladimir Halemskogo article titled “Israel – the most secure country for anti-Semites”

Every day, during evening prayers, Jews recite three times: “Here slumbers nor sleeps guardian of Israel.” On a spiritual level, the guardian does not sleep, because Israel still exists. On the material level, God entrusts the protection of Jews by the security services, and this is also the guardian does not sleep, day or night, but the safety of the Jews as there was no and no. The guards usually stands on the gate and check everyone who comes to town, but if those who celebrate life, and those who glorify death, have the same identity – the guard is lost. Every day the Israelis will know when and who encroached on their lives and under what circumstances he was arrested. Increasingly, the news appears the phrase: “Approved for publication …”, then we are told news a month ago, the publication of which was prohibited. This is the first sign that we’ll discuss the Arabs who have Israeli passports, the same as those they decided to kill him. For decades, our politicians come up to bomb the streamlined definitions, assuring us that the weed is in any nation and that we can not draw hasty conclusions and generalizations. After the Arab riots in the north, which resulted in the dock were the police who opened fire, not only increased the number of terrorists with Israeli identity card, but the number of police officers who do not want to risk a career. The court discussed the number of victims, the Commission calculated the Ora cartridge cases and no one remembered that the mob came with banners reading “Death to the Jews.” If the government chooses not to aggravate relations with the Arab sector, then the police prefer not to aggravate relations with the government. A few days ago an attempt was made to lynch employee “Cellcom”, mistakenly drove into the village Isauiya located within the boundaries of Jerusalem, and the crowd again shouted “Death to the Jews.” Not a word about Zionism or the “occupation” has not been told, no one remembered the bureaucracy and the quality of life, it was sufficient to determine the nationality of that whole area was set in motion. When not in front of the prison, nor to sumoy no fear, the crowd moved not by law, and blind hatred. The prison will warm, fed, Institute of National Insurance will take care of the family, and freedom of release with a degree and with the same ID. When jail becomes a comfort – a crime becomes attractive. One well thrown stone can be incompetent to make a TV star, but one who calls for violence – the Knesset. In December 2009, MK Taleb al-Sana assumed the role of spokesman and leader of Hamas called on Arab demonstrators prepared to march on Jerusalem. One and a half years it took to ensure that the Knesset committee on ethical issues has made him a severe reprimand. Whoever decided that this was a question of ethics, people laughed in his face. MK Hanin Zoabi sat on the ship with Turkish criminals just because our country was formed a group of parliamentarians, among which is always competition in the invention of anti-Israeli filth that covered the Israeli Knesset in the Israeli currency. Over all matters in this country hovers the shadow of the nine supreme court robes of justice. Above these nine judges no one, and their expertise has no boundaries, including security issues. According to the decision of the investigators are not allowed to have a material impact on the terrorists, even to find out how much is left before the explosion. Investigators are expected to behave properly, should give questioned sleep, time to wash and sit in comfortable chairs in the interrogation. Prison dispensary resemble the strong power, which, judging by the benefits, it is impossible to understand: Who guards. For Journalists Israel has long turned into a “Walk the field.” In any hot spot of the world they are living in field conditions and to interview at gunpoint. In Israel, from the hot spot to the opera house and a half hours away. In the morning, sitting on the balcony with a cup of coffee, you can tell the world how difficult it is to go out to buy eggs and not be blown up. It’s time to openly state that the peace process there was nothing left except the Nobel Prize, but because of the availability of these parts of the gang Arafat a whole generation of Arabs who believe that Jews exist only to kill them, it’s time to do what once did with Arafat. Anyone who with an Israeli identity card calls for the destruction of Israel, attempts on the lives of Israelis and are not afraid to go to jail, should be afraid to get into an Israeli military helicopter, which flies in an unknown direction. If the place of landing, after all her fruits journalists – to land the helicopter without the need to not only citizenship, but without clothes. In shorts. For a complete feeling of freedom can be a welcome and gum from pants to pull. (ZMAN.com)
