The accusation by Oleg Bolychev, a legislator from the ruling United Russia party at the regional parliament in Kaliningrad, was made in the parliament on February 6, according to the Regnum news agency, which reported on it on Thursday.
During a debate, Bolychev called his detractors "Jews, mired in opposition," adding: "You destroyed our country in 1917 and you destroyed our country in 1991."
The Russian Jewish Congress condemned the lawmaker, saying it was indignant over the statement and calling on authorities to investigate it.
Bolychev also came under fire from colleagues within the ruling party, some of whom called for him to be expelled.
"It is incredible that a public figure can make such extremist statements," lawmaker Alexander Khinshtein told the AFP news agency.
Bolychev has rejected accusations that his remarks were anti-Semitic and decried claims of extremism as "ravings and provocations."
"I was not talking about Jews but about the situation in the country. I was speaking about traitors who destroyed a great state twice," he said.



In modern times, if we would all stereotype and categorize the stereotypers and categorizers, in the exact manner our modern governments (ruling technocrats) so ably tell us to, then all human difficulties would be solved, by virtue of conformity and similarity.
And all the troublemakers, those who don't stereotype and categorize correctly, and thus threaten modern government security and continuity, would be properly held in a stout prison, until they die or change their tune.
So unlike the dungeons and torture chambers of dark times past.
We call this, SCIENCE.
