Thank you Christian for sending us this information.
And if there is among us someone who can translate what
Josef Zissels said, please would you translate for the rest of us?

Josef Zissels is the man who founded and financed the Jewish museum
of Czernowitz.
We of course do not know whether he is right in what he said about
the protesters and would like to get the opinions of less involved people.
I still remember being told: "Tak skazal tovaresh Stalin"
(so said comrade Stalin).
There is no question that the protests when they started, had nothing to do
with Jews, neither good nor bad, but recent attacks on religious Jews in the
Ukraine, have me worried.
