An antisemitic leaflet was posted on the door of Kiev’s Brodsky synagogue, according to a February 14, 2006 report by the AEN news agency. “Chabad is the road to hell! No to Judeo-Fascism!” the leaflet read, along with demands that the synagogue building, which served as a puppet theater after the Soviet regime confiscated it from the Jewish community, be returned to the puppet theater.
Strangely, the puppet theater has already found new accommodations. The leaflet contained a threat of antisemitic violence. “Today our children don’t go to the theater—Tomorrow they will grab a gun and go on a pogrom,” the leaflet read, picturing skinheads at a neo-Nazi concert. The leaflet’s author claims to represent a marginal political party, whose spokesman denied that it had anything to do with the leaflet.
