People of Jewish origin
Ukraine was home to very many Jews, some of whom emigrated to Brazil. I've removed those people from the list of prominant Ukrainians because although they or their ancestors were from lands that are Ukraine they were not Ukrainians. Many of their ancestors were from cities (such as Odessa) where few people were actually Ukrainian and where very few even spoke Ukrainian. These people better belong in the article on Brazilian Jews. Otherwise even Sigmund Freud will become a prominant Ukrainian (his ancestors were from a shtetl in what is now Ukraine)Faustian (talk) 21:39, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
- This is racism. In Nazi Germany, Jews were not considered "Germans" because of their non-Germanic origins and their religion. This is ridiculous.
Why are you claiming a people who has been living in Ukraine for at least 1 thousand year is not Ukrainian? Only because of their faith?
This sounds Nazi to me. Ukrainian-Jews have been living there for centuries. This make them Ukrainians; maybe more Ukrainians than many "ethinic Ukrainians". Opinoso (talk) 14:47, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
