and 100 years ago in Russia
David R. Francis, United States ambassador in Russia, warned in a
January 1918 dispatch to Washington: "The Bolshevik leaders here, most
of whom are Jews and 90 percent of whom are returned exiles, care
little for Russia or any other country but are internationalists and
they are trying to start a worldwide social revolution."14
The Netherlands' ambassador in Russia, Oudendyke, made much the same
point a few months later: "Unless Bolshevism is nipped in the bud
immediately, it is bound to spread in one form or another over Europe
and the whole world as it is organized and worked by Jews who have no
nationality, and whose one object is to destroy for their own ends the
existing order of things."
"The Bolshevik Revolution," declared a leading American Jewish
community paper in 1920, "was largely the product of Jewish thinking,
Jewish discontent, Jewish effort to reconstruct."
Based on careful observation during a lengthy stay in Russia, American-
Jewish scholar Frank Golder reported in 1925 that "because so many of
the Soviet leaders are Jews anti-Semitism is gaining [in Russia],
particularly in the army [and] among the old and new intelligentsia
who are being crowded for positions by the sons of Israel."
