was decidedly a mixed bag. Interestingly (I think) his reputation is
better here in the US than in GB.
I don't think most people know about his unreconstructed racism. He
once stomped out a of a movie because it had black
actors in in. "I don't like Blackamoors!"
But early in his career he sponsored some very progressive legislation.
And in the long view, he was right about one thing: The danger posed
by Hitler.
And just to stir the pot:
Zionism versus Bolshevism.
A Struggle for the Soul of the Jewish People
By the *Rt. Hon. Winston S. Churchill.*
SOME people like Jews and some do not; but no thoughtful man can
doubt the fact that they are beyond all question the most formidable
and the most remarkable race which has ever appeared in the world.
And it may well be that this same astounding race may at the present
time be in the actual process of producing another system of morals
and philosophy, as malevolent as Christianity was benevolent, which,
if not arrested would shatter irretrievably all that Christianity
has rendered possible. It would almost seem as if the gospel of
Christ and the gospel of Antichrist were destined to originate among
the same people; and that this mystic and mysterious race had been
chosen for the supreme manifestations, both of the divine and the
diabolical.
The National Russian Jews, in spite of the disabilities under which
they have suffered, have managed to play an honourable and
successful part in the national life even of Russia. As bankers and
industrialists they have strenuously promoted the development of
Russia's economic resources, and they were foremost in the creation
of those remarkable organisations, the Russian Cooperative
Societies. In politics their support has been given, for the most
part, to liberal and progressive movements, and they have been among
the staunchest upholders of friendship with France and Great Britain.
*International Jews.*
In violent opposition to all this sphere of Jewish effort rise the
schemes of the International Jews. The adherents of this sinister
confederacy are mostly men reared up among the unhappy populations
of countries where Jews are persecuted on account of their race.
Most, if not all, of them have forsaken the faith of their
forefathers, and divorced from their minds all spiritual hopes of
the next world. This movement among the Jews is not new. From the
days of Spartacus- Weishaupt to those of Karl Marx, and down to
Trotsky (Russia), Bela Kun (Hungary), Rosa Luxembourg (Germany), and
Emma Goldman (United States), this world-wide conspiracy for the
overthrow of civilisation and for the reconstitution of society on
the basis of arrested development, of envious malevolence, and
impossible equality, has been steadily growing. It played, as a
modern writer, Mrs. Webster, has so ably shown, a definitely
recognisable part in the tragedy of the French Revolution. It has
been the mainspring of every subversive movement during the
Nineteenth Century; and now at last this band of extraordinary
personalities from the underworld of the great cities of Europe and
America have gripped the Russian people by the hair of their heads
and have become practically the undisputed masters of that enormous
empire.
*Terrorist Jews.*
There is no need to exaggerate the part played in the creation of
Bolshevism and an the actual bringing about of the Russian
Revolution: by these international and for the most part atheistical
Jews. It is certainly a very great one; it probably outweighs all
others. With the notable exception of Lenin, the majority of the
leading figures are Jews. Moreover, the principal inspiration and
driving power comes from the Jewish leaders. Thus Tchitcherin, a
pure Russian, is eclipsed by his nominal subordinate Litvinoff, and
the influence of Russians like Bukharin or Lunacharski cannot be
compared with the power of Trotsky, or of Zinovieff, the Dictator of
the Red Citadel (Petrograd), or of Krassin or Radek -- all Jews. In
the Soviet institutions the predominance of Jews is even more
astonishing. And the prominent, if not indeed the principal, part in
the system of terrorism applied by the Extraordinary Commissions for
Combating Counter-Revolution has been taken by Jews, and in some
notable cases by Jewesses.
The same evil prominence was obtained by Jews in the brief period of
terror during which Bela Kun ruled in Hungary. The same phenomenon
has been presented in Germany (especially in Bavaria), so far as
this madness has been allowed to prey upon the temporary prostration
of the German people. Although in all these countries there are many
non-Jews every whit as bad as the worst of the Jewish
revolutionaries, the part played by the latter in proportion to
their numbers in the population is astonishing.
*"Protector of the Jews."*
Needless to say, the most intense passions of revenge have been
excited in the breasts of the Russian people. Wherever General
Denikin's authority could reach, protection was always accorded to
the Jewish population, and strenuous efforts were made by his
officers to prevent reprisals and to punish those guilty of them. So
much was this the case that the Petlurist propaganda against General
Denikin denounced him as the Protector of the Jews. The Misses
Healy, nieces of Mr. Tim Healy, relating their personal experiences
in Kieff, have declared that to their knowledge on more than one
occasion officers who committed offences against Jews were reduced
to the ranks and sent out of the city to the front. But the hordes
of brigands by whom the whole vast expanse of the Russian Empire is
becoming infested do not hesitate. to gratify their lust for blood
and for revenge at the expense of the innocent Jewish population
whenever an opportunity occurs. The brigand Makhno, the hordes of
Petlura and of Gregorieff, who signalised their every success by the
most brutal massacres, everywhere found among the half-stupefied,
half-infuriated population an eager response to anti-Semitism in its
worst and foulest forms. The fact that in many cases Jewish
interests and Jewish places of worship are excepted by the
Bolsheviks from their universal hostility has tended more and more
to associate the Jewish race in Russia with the villainies which are
now being perpetrated.
*A Home for the Jews.*
Zionism offers the third sphere to the political conceptions of the
Jewish race. In violent contrast to international communism.
Zionism has already become a factor in the political convulsions of
Russia, as a powerful competing influence in Bolshevik circles with
the international communistic system. Nothing could be more
significant than the fury with which Trotsky has attacked the
Zionists generally, and Dr. Weissmann in particular. The cruel
penetration of his mind leaves him in no doubt that his schemes of a
world-wide communistic State under Jewish domination are directly
thwarted and hindered by this new ideal, which directs the energies
and the hopes of Jews in every land towards a simpler, a truer, and
a far more attainable goal. The struggle which is now beginning
between the Zionist and Bolshevik Jews is little less than a
struggle for the soul of the Jewish people.
