The battle between the Communists & Zionists has been foaming for over a hundred years.

Zionism versus Bolshevism: A Struggle for the Soul of the Jewish People. Winston Churchill

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 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.

When Moshe Rabeinu went up to har Sinai, they still made a golden calf.

And we have been paying for it ever since.

They would allow their own people to be obliterated from the face of the earth for a suitcase filled with cash from terrorists. How nice of them....

No point ... but Catholics on this board are so easily spotted as being militant and looking for a fight

The headline says Jews but I say they're not Jews

How many Catholic Democrats?

WAY too many....they became democrats as the union movements grew and grew....they were mostly laborers and fell under the democrat way of thinking....now is is "my family has always voted democrat so I do too...

That's how my family was, dad was a teamster and mom, in her later years worked as a machinist and was a union steward.

I was first eligible to vote in 1960 and voted for Kennedy.....that was the last time, other than in a local election or two, that I voted for a democrat.....didn't take me too long to wake up!!!

For many, it might also have something to do with living in or around large cities.
