Zionism we do not see. Their complicity in certain bolshevik crimes and the war in iraq i.e. jewish neo cons was done from behind the scenes. No blood in the butchers hand.

Why should Jews be blamed for Bolshevism more than, say, Russians? There were more Russian Bolsheviks. Even among the leadership.

Because they were way overrepresented for there small slice of the population.

That is not a trivial consideration but what matters most is that it happened at all. And Jews were not nearly as numerous. The Bolsheviks came to power and held it in large part because they had the support of ordinary soldiers. They had the muscle. Jews were a trivial consideration in considering these soldiers. Left to Jewish Bolsheviks alone there would have been no Communist revolution in Russia. That can probably be said for Russians too. But it was a multiethnic effort with Russians predictably playing the most numerous role.

Actually they were waaay over represented in early bolshevism and I can provide you list. The jewish community was treated very poorly by the czar so maybe this was the reason

I'm very aware of the Jews in the early Bolshevik leadership. But I don't believe their role was as decisive as that of Russians' - much less the Bolsheviks as a whole.

Just out of curiosity do you believe Lenin was a Jew? He was part. But also Russian, Tatar, German, and Swedish. Culturally he identified as Russian. But maybe it was all really a Swedish conspiracy.

I dont know how else to explain this to you.....sorry man. When you make up over 50 % or the revolutionaries but you are only a few percent of the population people are going to look at that as an organized attempt. A head scratcher

Joe_McCarthy ago

Only among the leadership, certainly not the soldiers needed to seize power, can that over 50% figure come remotely close to being accurate, and only then during the actual coup with the first politburo. You had three Jews out of seven there not counting Lenin. Trotsky, Kamenev, and Zinoviev, and amusingly Kamenev and Zinoviev opposed Lenin's successful bid to seize power by force with a bunch of non-Jewish (and mostly Russian) Red Guards.
