Lukashenka once more demonstrated to the whole world what he is: a crude, rude former kolkhoz (collective farm) chairman unfit to rule a village, let alone a European country. Under Lukashenka political opponents vanished, were arrested, tortured and beaten. Tens of thousands of women prefer to emigrate, many supporting themselves by plying the world oldest profession (prostitution). Men left for Russia and Europe to be guest workers. If I was a Belarussian, I would be ashamed of such a leader.

It's comeing to something bordering on hysteria when no one can critisize some Jews for not looking after their own environment without being called an anti semetic. what a bloody grip the Jews have on this world. Whoops I must be an anti semetic!

'Whoops I must be an anti semetic!'

You have demonstrated that over and over again.

' The Holocaust of the Second World War effectively wiped out Belarus' Jewish population.'

Don't know why that had to be in the article. The nazis murdered a hell of a lot more Belarussians than Jews in Belarus.

Furthermore, if you read Lukashenko's full statement it sound even less offensive than the creative quotations that the 'free' media is happy to spread around. Somehow when the Jews kill another bunch of Palestinian kids no-one recalls their ambassadors from Israel. Go figure!...

Lukashenko didn't call Jews 'dirty'. He is stupid, but he actually said i that interview that the city in question is all cleaned up and the Jews are welcome to come back with all their money. He said the city was dirty before, but he also said he was in Israel and noticed that the Jews are cutting grass or keep their places nice.
I was in Israel, too. It is not nice. Dusty, dirty rooms in hotels of Tel Aviv, unsanitary restaurants, resentful employees. I complained to the management when I found my room filthy, and the next day I got an earful from the cafeteria workers! They claimed that the guy who was supposed to clean my room was just released from the military service. He wasn't able to get a decent job, so he came to that hotel. But... He was 'too proud' to clean bathroom (it had pubic hair on the floor) or change the linen on the bed :-)
And the pool guy totally ignored my request to turn down his radio. He consider me an American Goyim, and wasn't interested in listening to my complains. I know now not to take my money to the people who don't know how to treat tourists.

The majority of these comments are despicable. I would like to clarify a few things. Calling a city or a specific hotel dirty and criticizing the people in charge for not taking care of it is one thing. Applying one observation or experience to a whole ethnicity or race of people is dangerous and hateful. Saying all Jews are unclean is anti-semetic. Saying all Israelis don't know how to treat foreigners because you had a bad experience on you trip is untrue, unjust, and just plain narrow-minded. Have we learned nothing? Please think about the hateful message you are spreading.
