Lying about Judeo-Bolshevism

Jews were invariably disproportionately represented in liberal and socialist parties because they were not welcome to participate in conservative and Catholic political parties.

- The Fake Threat of Jewish Communism
from this statement one should probably conclude that the Jews didn't care which party to join, right?

нет ли тут антисемитизма

и вот еще там же: ...futile attempt to refute a myth on the basis of historical facts and statistical data. A small kernel of truth underpinned the stereotype of the Jewish Bolshevik... [see Бумажный телец]

and other explosive subjects:

    the Polish army received crucial military aid to help it resist the Soviet invasion of 1920

and the paragraph starting with

    For Poles the situation was much more complicated.

and predictably detailed analysis from equally predictable quarters Lying about Judeo-Bolshevism. even a few words of praise for the reviewed book:
Perhaps the only remotely valuable element of the book is the sixth chapter, which concerns the shift from Western understandings of Judeo-Bolshevism to the Western trope of “Judeo-Christian” civilization. Hanebrink correctly conceives of the latter as a modern sociological construct designed to place (primarily) American Jews within a “universalist rubric”
