Masters of deceit : $b The story of Communism in America and how to fight it
Hoover, J. Edgar (John Edgar)
Communism -- United States
Since the Jewish question is international in scope, we
communists must be alert to the problem and its world-wide
aspects. The Jewish question is a specific question that
requires specific attention.... The liquidation of the
outstanding Yiddish writers and Jewish communal and political
leaders, and the snuffing out of organized Jewish cultural life
have been known for some time....
He, of course, was referring to anti-Semitism in Russia.
The resolution called for the creation of a Jewish Commission, a return
to Leninist policy, and a request “... to make this subject one for
fraternal discussion with the Communist Party in the Soviet Union,”
which, of course, negates the view of independence of the communists in
the United States.
The resolution was soft-pedaled and disposed of, as was a similar
resolution dealing with Soviet terrorism in Hungary, by being referred
to the National Committee of the Party. _Pravda_, on February 16, 1957,
had this to say: “The 16th Convention of the Communist Party, USA,
confirmed the loyalty of the American communists to the principles of
Marxism-Leninism....”
Party leaders, however, in the face of the overwhelming evidence of
communist hate for the followers of Moses, still are attempting to
deceive unsuspecting persons of Jewish origin and, as this is being
written, communist tacticians are at work on a program of infiltrating
Jewish groups by seeking for the answers to such questions as:
—How to avoid the extremes of negating Israel and of accepting
its actions uncritically.
—How to work in religious groups while keeping ourselves and
our children free of the religious doctrine of these groups.
—How to avoid the extremes of taking on all issues and avoiding
all issues.
—How to balance Jewish work with our interests as Marxists in
general trade union, minorities and people’s movements.
The vigilant and patriotic members of Jewish organizations have
demonstrated their alertness to counteract the infiltration tactics in
Jewish institutions by communists who were born Jews. Where communist
infiltration tactics have succeeded in Jewish organizations, it has
been because of a failure on the part of leaders and members alike to be
vigilant and thwart the communist tactic of infiltration into the Jewish
community just as it has sought to infiltrate every other organization.
A _Pravda_ editorial on July 6, 1956, should remove all doubts as to the
antipathy of communism to those who worship God regardless of their faith:
As for our country the Communist Party has been and will be
the only master of the minds, and thoughts, the spokesman,
leader and organizer of the people in their entire struggle for
communism.
