In that very highly respected magazine Asia for February-March, 1920, is
an article which contains, among other important ones, these statements:
(the italics are ours)
"In all the Bolshevist institutions the heads are Jews. The Assistant
Commissar for Elementary Education, Grunberg, can hardly speak Russian.
The Jews are successful in everything and obtain their ends. They know
how to command and get complete submission. But they are proud and
contemptuous toward everyone, which strongly excites the people against
them * * * At the present time there is a great national religious
fervor among the Jews. They believe that the promised time of the rule
of God's elect on earth is coming. They have connected Judaism with a
universal revolution. They see in the spread of revolution the
fulfilling of the Scriptures: 'Though I make an end of all the nations
whither I have scattered thee, yet will I not make an end of thee.'"
Now if Gentile proof were wanted, the files of the THE DEARBORN
INDEPENDENT for a whole year would not begin to contain it. But Jewish
proof is better.
There has been a strange vacillation in Jewish opinion concerning
Bolshevism. At first it was hailed with delight. There was no
concealment whatever in the early days of the new regime as to the part
which Jewry had in it. Public meetings, interviews, special articles
poured forth in which very valuable elements of truth were mingled.
There was no attempt at concealment of names.
Then the horror of the thing began to take hold upon the world, and for
just a breathing space Jewish opinion fell silent. There was a spasmodic
denial or two. Then a new burst of glorification. The glorification
continues within Judaism itself, but it now carries on the Gentile side
of its face a very sad expression labeled "persecution."
We have lived to see the day when to denounce Bolshevism is to
"persecute the Jews."
In the American Hebrew, for September 10, 1920, an article appears which
not only acknowledges and explains the part which the Jew plays in the
present unrest and upheaval, but justifies it--and justifies it,
curiously enough, by The Sermon on the Mount.
The writer says that "the Jew evolved organized capitalism with its
working instrumentality, the banking system."
This is very refreshing, in view of the numerous Jewish denials of this
economic fact.
"One of the impressive phenomena of the impressive time is the revolt of
the Jew against the Frankenstein which his own mind conceived and his
own hand fashioned * * *" If this is true, why is Jewish "organized
capital with its working instrumentality, the banking system" supporting
the revolt?
"That achievement (referring to the Russian overthrow), destined to
figure in history as the overshadowing result of the World War, was
largely the outcome of Jewish thinking, of Jewish discontent, of Jewish
effort to reconstruct."
