From inside front cover, by the author: "To understand the total problem of communism it is necessary that we trace the course of the movement from its beginning down to the present. We must understand who its originators were, and what they were, and we must gain some idea as to the forces which influenced and shaped their philosophy. Unfortunately, any deep-down discussion of communism and Marxism involves the Jewish question. We cannot honestly discuss the subject without revealing--and commenting on--the fact that the founders of Russian communism were Jewish. Neither can we ignore the fact that all but a few of the top leadership of the American communist party--including the recently convicted spys--are of the same race. These are facts of history over which we have no control. But we are faced with the very serious problem of how to reveal these facts without being labeled--and treated--as 'anti-Semites'. The main reason why so little is known concerning the true nature of communism stems from this problem. Historical writers have been understandably reluctant to hold forth on the subject for fear of marking themselves as 'race haters' and 'bigots'. For this reason the entire subject has been placed beyond the pale of discussion. One simply does not use the word 'Jew' and 'Communism' together. The result if, of course, censorship. In this work we have decided to breach the wall of silence at whatever the cost, and to treat the subject as fairly and as honestly as we know how. No attempt is made to single out individuals because they happened to be born to a certain race; neither have we exempted anyone from criticism for that reason. It was decided that since Communism and Judaism are so irretrievably bound one to the other, a history of the Jewish people would contribute substantially to an understanding of the present communist menace."

5.0 out of 5 stars The How, Why and Who of international Communism., March 2, 2003

This review is from: Behind Communism (Paperback)

This stapleback pamphlet gives a summarized history of Communism, the Bolshevik/Communist Party in Russia, and Communist infiltration of American society and its institutions. The subject delineated here is the massive Jewish involvement in Communism. The author posists that the whole movement is a Jewish racial cause, with some gentile followers. BEHIND COMMUNISM is full of pictures, lists and diagrams showing who the Communists are. The top-dog Communist leaders, Lenin and Stalin are gentiles, but they were married to Jewish wives. Stalin is always portrayed as a virulent "anti-Semite" and pogromist, but he was married to the daughter of the Politiburo member Kaganovitch, and Stalin's daughter was married to Kaganovitch's son. Soviet Forign Minister Molotov's wife was also Jewish. In fact, she was the sister of Karp, owner of Karp's Import-Export Company in Bridgeport, Connecticut.

The latter part discusses the Communist Party in America, which had a disproportionate Jewish membership and whose members were highly educated professionals rather than working-class men. Many of those convicted of selling nuclear secrets to the Soviet Union were Jewish, such as the Rosenburgs. Finally the Hollywood film industry is shown as the world's leading producer of Communist propaganda. The author explains how Hollywood films are designed to cause race-hatred among black and Mexican minorities and at the same time instill whites with a sense of guilt about race relations. There are some instances where the author makes inapropriate remarks, but these are minimal. The tone is relativly balanced, maintaining a pro-Christian, pro-European viewpoint.

In all, BEHIND COMMUNISM rails against the romanticism that liberals attribute to the Russian Revoloution. When the Jewish Communists took power in Russia, all H-E-double-hockey-sticks broke loose. Tens of thousands of Christians were massacred, and five million landowners in the Ukraine were intentionally starved to death during the early 1930's to solidify Communist dominance and freedom of Religion was abolished.

5.0 out of 5 stars Interesting, as far as it goes, February 8, 2006

By 

Michael Tozer (San Antonio, Texas United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   

This review is from: Behind Communism (Paperback)

This short booklet can be read in one sitting, if the reader is so disposed and inclined. And he who would do so would have, in that sitting, learnt a great deal relative to the background of Soviet communism. Certainly, it cannot be now reasonably denied that the Bolshevik movement had, in its leaderhship ranks, a disproportiate number of Ashkenazi Jews. However, interesting and informative though this little work is, it does drift occassionaly into the tragic waters of racism. In this, we are reminded of the insightful words of Michael A. Hoffman II, who teaches:

"Racial obsessions obscure spiritual realites..."

Such obsessions obscure historical realities as well. And with this in mind, it is critical to keep in mind that the horrific ideologies of Communism and Zionism are not racially determined, however disproportinately a certain ethnic group may be represented in them. They are rather, mental and spiritual contagions, that ought to inveighed against by all those who truthfully honor the Word of God, Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.

In the corpus of this interesting text is included a very worthwhile set of maps depicting both the ancient Khazar Empire, ancestral home of the Ashkenazi Jews, and the demarcations of the Jewish Pale of Settlement in the Empire of Holy Russia. Review of these maps and their accompanying text reveals to the careful student the outline of the actual history of these Eastern Jews, who have served as the foot soldiers of both revolutionary Soviet communism and Zionism.

The booklet is well worth reading. God bless.
