On June 3rd, in Izhevsk, 19-year-old Mihail Volkov shouted anti-Semitic slogans at the central republican stadium “Zenith,” during a match between the “Soyuz-Gazprom” and “Chelyabinsk” clubs. “Glory to the Kolovrat (8-pointed swastika used by nationalists – translator), let's destroy the NATO countries, don't think about it, bro, attack the Jews and Democrats!”

On the 8th of June, an appeal on behalf of so-called “Primorye partisans” to the infamous colonel Kvachkov appeared in the Internet. Kvachkov quickly denied any involvement with the appeal. Some excerpts from the appeal read: “We cannot tolerate the outrageous terror of the global cabal on our lands... We, the Special Forces of the Russian Airborne Troops, have risen to battle against the invaders . We are already fighting against them, KILLING THIS PROSTITUTE SCUM... We have risen against Jewish Fascism as our honorable grandfathers and fathers have risen in 1941 against the German invaders...”

St. Petersburg nationalists from the Movement Against Illegal Immigration (DPNI) attempted to place ads of buses about a historic date that they consider important – the defeat of the Khazaria Khaganate by the Kyiv prince Sviatoslav I, which the nationalists interpret as a victory agains Judaism. But the advertising agency denied them the placement this ad “in connection with a possible questionable social reaction to this draft.”

Bishop Pytyrym of Syktyvkar spoke at the 28th of March at the episcopate conference “God and the World Evil in Aspects of Globalization.” His speech included aspects of appropriate behavior for Orthodox Christians when contacting non-Orthodox people, and included referencing John Chrysostom to resist evil with force, and when meeting “a Jew or Heretic” to “smite him on the face; strike his mouth; sanctify your hand with the blow.”

In October 2010, during the scandal with Bogolybov monastery (Vladimirskaya oblast), which was a center for “Orthodox” activists, it became known that the confessor of the monastery, Father Kucher, made everyone pray nightly for “a liberation from the Jewish yoke.” The Archimandrite Raphael Berestov, who visited the monastery, called to prepare war with the Jews, and stated that each Christian Orthodox man must dedicate himself to one thing only – preparation for war. Even though Kucher had been formally relieved of his duties in Novemver 2010, he was allowed to live in the monastery, and thus preserved contact with his followers in Bogolybovo and control over them. There is also the possibility of continuing training for “war with the Jews.”

Colonel Kvachkov, when speaking on the 4th of November at the Moscow “Russian March” said the following: “Today we celebrate the 398th anniversary of the victory over the Jewish-Polish-Swedish yoke. We have already banished the Swedes and the Poles from the Kremlin. Who remains?” And the crowd answered, “The Jews!” Among the slogans which the “Russian March” crowd shouted was “Death to Jews!” Anti-Semitic chants were also recorded at the Manege Square riots on the 11th of December. The people chanted “Down with the Jewish government!” and the wall of the entrance to the Okhotny Ryad market was “decorated” with an “Attack the Jews!” graffiti.
