Vladimir Lenin
From Metapedia
Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov (12 April 1870 – 21 January 1924), better known as Vladimir Lenin, was a communist revolutionary of Jewish descent, political theorist and dictator of the RSFSR, as well as from 1922, the first de facto dictator of the Soviet Empire, established after the communists took control of Russia during the October Revolution. Lenin was permitted to return to Russia by the German Empire after his pledge that his new government would withdraw Russia from The Great War. Despite positioning himself as "leader of the proletariat", he came from a relatively prosperous background and was not himself a worker.
He was the creator of Leninism, an extension of Marxist theory. Lenin set up the Gulag slave system and during his 'reign', along with Leon Trotsky carried out the murder of some 13 million[1] Russian Christians in the Trotsky—Lenin Holocaust. Despite this, the legion of crimes commited by Bolshevist under Lenin are hidden, shifted under the propaganda phrase of "Stalinism".

Biography
Early life
Vladimir Ilich Ulyanov-Blank was born in Simbirsk on the Volga River on 22 April 1870 into a well-educated family. His mother was daughter of a rich Jewish family called Blank. He excelled at school and went on to study law. At university, he was exposed to radical thinking, and his views were also influenced by the execution of his elder brother, a member of a revolutionary group.
1889 the family bought a farm near to Simborsk. Lenin was unable to farm and to carry out any kind of manual work, therefore the farm was rented out to tenants. He had absolutely no connections to the peasants on their farms. All he knew about them he took from backbiting propaganda, like Gleb Uspenski-s works. He lived a comfortable life there, walked and read socialist literature.
Already showing his radical views, he said, the Romanov family must be exterminated. He also condemned international help in a year of bad harvests, because he felt it delayed the victory of socialism.
Expelled from university for his radical policies, Lenin completed his law degree as an external student in 1891. He moved to St Petersburg and became a professional revolutionary. Like many of his contemporaries he was arrested and exiled to Siberia, where he married Nadezhda Krupskaya, from a upper class background like himself. After his Siberian exile, Lenin - the pseudonym he adopted in 1901 - spent most of the subsequent decade and a half in western Europe, where he emerged as a prominent figure in the international revolutionary movement and became the leader of the 'Bolshevik' faction of the Russian Social Democratic Worker's Party.
Later life
In 1917, exhausted by World War One, Russia was ripe for change. The Germans, who hoped that he would remove her from the war facilitated his return to Russia from Switzerland. Lenin returned home and started working against the Provisional Government that had overthrown the Tsar. He eventually led what was soon to be known as the October Revolution, but was effectively a coup d'etat. Almost three years of civil war followed. The Bolsheviks were victorious and assumed total control of the country. During this period of revolution, war and famine, Lenin demonstrated a chilling disregard for the sufferings of his fellow countrymen and mercilessly crushed any opposition.
Although Lenin was ruthless he was also pragmatic. When his efforts to transform the Russian economy to a socialist model stalled, he introduced the New Economic Policy, where a measure of private enterprise was again permitted, a policy that continued for several years after his death. In 1918, Lenin narrowly survived an assassination attempt, but was severely wounded. His long term health was affected, and in 1922 he suffered a stroke from which he never fully recovered. In his declining years, he worried about the bureaucratisation of the regime and also expressed concern over the increasing power of his eventual successor Joseph Stalin. He describes Stalin with words as "personal rudeness, unnecessary roughness, lack of finesse", flaws "intolerable in a Secretary-General". Lenin died on 24 January 1924. His corpse was embalmed and placed in a mausoleum on Moscow's Red Square.
Between 1917-1924 at least 7 million deaths were caused by Lenin and his collaborators activities, the revolution, the civil war, the famine, the Bolshevik Cheka organisation, the Red Army.
Intellectual cowardice and dishonesty
Lenin developed the contemporary Marxist concept of "imperialism" in his 1917 work called Imperialism, the Highest Stage of Capitalism. The direct inspiration for this was Imperialism: A Study authored in 1902 by John A. Hobson, a British socialist who was opposed to the Anglo-Boer War, which was fought to put Jewish randlords in control of the gold and diamond mines of South Africa. In the original work by Hobson, he explicitly demonstrates that Ashkenazi Jews are the predominating force which are entangling nations in wars for the imperialism of high finance; he specifically uses the word "Jews" and "Rothschild". Lenin does not use either of these words in his derivative work and his followers to this day. Lenin's concealment appears to be motivated by his own Jewish ancestry. Henry Hyndman, a dissident Marxist of the age, like Hobson criticised the imperialism of Jewish finance and the Rothschilds by name, unlike Lenin, he had no known Jewish ancestry.
Quotes
Inside the mind of Lenin
| “ | A lie told often enough becomes the truth. | ” |
| “ | An intelligent Russian is almost always a Jew or someone with Jewish blood in his veins. | ” |
| “ | Put more force into the terror. Shoot every tenth person, place all the suspects in concentration camps! | ” |
| “ | The aim of socialism is not only to end the division of mankind into tiny states, it is not only the rapprochement of nations but also their fusion. | ” |
| “ | There the great universally progressive features of Jewish culture have made themselves clearly felt: its internationalism, its responsiveness of the advanced movements of our times (the percentage of Jews in democratic and proletarian movements is everywhere higher than the percentage of Jews in the general population). Those Jewish Marxists who join up in the international Marxist organizations with the Russian, Lithuanian, Ukrainian and other workers, adding their might (both in Russian and in Jewish) to the creation of an international culture of the working class movement, are continuing the best traditions of Jewry. | ” |
Comments about Lenin
| “ | Lenin was sent into Russia by the Germans in the same way that you might send a phial containing a culture of typhoid or of cholera to be poured into the water supply of a great city, and it worked with amazing accuracy. No sooner did Lenin arrive than he began beckoning a finger here and a finger there to obscure persons in sheltered retreats in New York, in Glasgow, in Berne, and other countries, and he gathered together the leading spirits of a formidable sect, the most formidable sect in the world, of which he was the high priest and chief. With these spirits around him he set to work with demoniacal ability to tear to pieces every institution on which the Russian State and nation depended. Russia was laid low. Russia had to be laid low. She was laid low to the dust. | ” |
| —Winston Churchill, 6 November 1919, House of Commons.[2] | ||
| “ | Under the revolutionary regimes of Lenin and the early Stalin the former majority population of Eastern Slavs (Russians, Ukrainians, White Russians) in their own country were dispossessed and put under the jurisdiction of the prerevolutionary minority peoples (Jews, Georgians, Latvians, Poles, and Armenians). The October Revolution differed substantially from earlier Western revolutions as, for example, when Frenchmen were pitted against Frenchmen in the French Revolution or when Englishmen fought against fellow Englishmen in the American Revolution for the purpose of improving conditions for the less fortunate. In Russia in 1917, international misfits provided much of the leadership for that revolution as part of a world conspiracy to bring down all other governments that did not accept the dictatorial teaching of Karl Marx and his disciples. | ” |
