"Anti-Semitism: Reply to an Inquiry of the Jewish News Agency in the United States"

Joseph Stalin

In answer to your inquiry:

National and racial chauvinism is a vestige of the misanthropic customs characteristic of the period of cannibalism. Anti-semitism, as an extreme form of racial chauvinism, is the most dangerous vestige of cannibalism.

Anti-semitism is of advantage to the exploiters as a lightning conductor that deflects the blows aimed by the working people at capitalism. Anti-semitism is dangerous for the working people as being a false path that leads them off the right road and lands them in the jungle. Hence Communists, as consistent internationalists, cannot but be irreconcilable, sworn enemies of anti-semitism.

In the U.S.S.R. anti-semitism is punishable with the utmost severity of the law as a phenomenon deeply hostile to the Soviet system. Under U.S.S.R. law active anti-semites are liable to the death penalty.

J. Stalin January 12, 1931

It wasn't when Lenin and Stalin killed millions of peasants that American communist intellectuals turned on Soviet Communism. It wasn't when Stalin blew up churches that they thought he was a threat. It wasn't when his Gulag system was set up that they turned on him. Nope. It was only when Stalin started to target Jews in his government that they turned on him and became "Cold Warriors".

Exactly. And the Cold War "thawed" when Jews began to regain influence in Russia.

The ADL itself admits to your thesis, though they reverse it:


...Stalin's campaign against the Jews coincided with the start of the Cold War, and it was continued by his successors who conceived and orchestrated the first worldwide campaign against Zionism, portraying it as not just racist but the incarnation of evil itself.
