Solzhenitsyn on the Jewish Role in the Bolshevik Terror

Solzhenitsyn breaks last taboo of the revolution. Nobel laureate under fire for new book on the role of Jews in Soviet era repression.

From the Guardian (UK) by Nick Paton Walsh in Moscow

Commentary by Dr. David Duke on Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

Here are some excerpts from an article in the Guardian (UK), January 25, 2003. Since the last few articles I have posted have dealt with the Jewish role in the Bolshevik revolution and the accompanying terror and genocide in the Soviet Union, I wanted to share with you some of Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn’s comments. Few men have the high moral standing of this world-wide admired Nobel Prize winner. He wrote the most famous and authoritative books on the Soviet Gulag System, Gulag Archipelago I, II, & III.

A couple of years ago he wrote a book called Together for Two Hundred Years about the Jewish experience in Russia. It included mention of the Jewish role in the Bolshevik terror. Although he was quite soft-spoken in his book, in many ways he does lay wide-open the still suppressed story of the prominent Jewish role in the Bolshevik revolution and especially the Jewish role in the genocide of Christians, intelligentsia, and other potential enemies of the Soviet. Solzhenitsyn says very emphatically that even with all their complaints of social suppression by the Soviet apparatus in the 50s and 60s, they hide their prominent role in the horrors and genocides of the earlier decades. The Guardian article reports:

….he said that Russia must come to terms with the Stalinist and revolutionary genocides – and that its Jewish population should be as offended at their own role in the purges as they are at the [later] Soviet power that also persecuted them.

The Guardian continues:

Alexander Solzhenitsyn, who first exposed the horrors of the Stalinist gulag, is now attempting to tackle one of the most sensitive topics of his writing career – the role of the Jews in the Bolshevik revolution and Soviet purges. In his latest book Solzhenitsyn, 84, deals with one of the last taboos of the communist revolution: that Jews were as much perpetrators of the repression as its victims… Two Hundred Years Together – a reference to the 1772 partial annexation of Poland and Russia which greatly increased the Russian Jewish population – contains three chapters discussing the Jewish role in the revolutionary genocide and secret police purges of Soviet Russia.

He also correctly states that the murderous actions of the Kiev Cheka [secret police] cannot be explained only by the fact that two thirds of them were Jews:

Yet he added: “But it is impossible to find the answer to the eternal question: who is to be blamed, who led us to our death? To explain the actions of the Kiev Cheka only by the fact that two thirds were Jews, is certainly incorrect.”

But, of course, there is only so much that one man, even a man of his stature, can say and still get published, and Solzhenitsyn has to be aware of that. But in fact, if you are being even somewhat critical you cannot say that two thirds of the Cheka murderers were Jews. In fact, even with his mitigating statements, his book cannot be found in English! A quick check of Amazon Books will show that Two Hundred Years, the latest book by a world-renowned Nobel Prize winner of impeccable reputation, is unavailable. Could it be this book simply says what we are forbidden to know?

One only has to ask, “What if the Germans had moved into Russia and dominated the ‘Russian Revolution’ and comprised two-thirds of the Soviet genocidists in a Russian country?” I have no doubt where blame would go. There are thousands of books that blame all Germans for the crimes of the Nazis. One of the biggest sellers all over the world, called Hitler’s Willing Executioners, claims that something in the German essence is evil and genocidal. Many other books go even further. They blame the Pope and, ultimately, all Gentiles for the Holocaust because they did not initiate the carnage of the Second World War sooner.

There seems to be no blame however placed on the Jewish communities in Russia and all over the world for their support of Bolshevism in Russia and for the preeminent Jewish role in the Bolshevik movement. Why is there no criticism for their domination of a genocidal apparatus which by all accounts killed more human beings than those alleged to have been killed by the Nazis?

There are no world-wide manhunts for the perpetrators of the Russian genocide, no trials for them, no memorial museums on the Washington Mall, hardly a mention in the press. In fact there isn’t even a name for the largest genocide in human history, a genocide far larger than the trademarked, capital “H” Holocaust — the word used to sum up Jewish suffering. And yet Christian suffering at the hands of Jewish antagonists apparently deserves no special designation.

The Guardian article describes the reaction of Jewish leaders such as the head of the Russian Jewish Congress:

But Jewish leaders and some historians have reacted furiously to the book, and questioned Solzhenitsyn’s motives in writing it, accusing him of factual inaccuracies and of fanning the flames of anti-Semitism in Russia.

Ironically, Solzenitsyn is accused of being factually inaccurate. Yet there was no such criticism of Jewish scholar Yuri Slezkine who writes a paean to Jewish power in the Jewish Century and boasts of their predominant role in the Bolshevik Revolution and even admits to their role in the genocidal secret police. He even calls them “Stalin’s willing executioners.” Imagine for a moment if a book about the Jews in Bolshevism was published with that title saying that from the genocidal days of the Torah and Talmud, Jews have been genocidal by nature. I don’t think such a book would be promoted by the media and be on the best seller list in America or Europe like Hitler’s Willing Executioners.

Solzhenitzyn, who spent many terrible years in the Gulag, also reveals the tribal loyalties that existed among the Jews in the Soviet, for undeniably some Jews went into the gulag system. The Guardian mentions how the Jews in Russia were furious at Solzhenitsyn for even mentioning it in passing.

In one remark which infuriated Russian Jews, he wrote: “If I would care to generalise, and to say that the life of the Jews in the camps was especially hard, I could, and would not face reproach for an unjust national generalisation. But in the camps where I was kept, it was different. The Jews whose experience I saw – their life was softer than that of others.”

The tribal imperative. It operated in Bolshevik Russia and it still operates among the Neocons who orchestrate the Iraq War for Israel. It is the same tribal loyalty that brings together CIA intelligence, presidential speech writers and advisors, media and government officials, lobbying and fundraising groups, and political candidates who will insure the Jewish supremacist imperative.

It makes sure that the heads of the Federal Reserve and the World Bank will be run by brethren sure to put the interest of the tribe first and foremost. It even worked in the gulag where Solzhenitsyn says the Jewish monsters made sure that their few imprisoned brethren received the best of a bad situation.

As Pete Findley said, “There is a gorilla in the room but no one can mention him.” Perhaps a few can allude to a hairy hand on the coffee table or, sometimes, even the smell of this hairy corrupt beast can be mentioned among us, but they dare not confront the gorilla directly.

Even the small mentions such as Solzhenitsyn made keeps his book out of the lucrative and important English-speaking market.
