Your reply illustrates the problem. The link referencing the German Revolution says nothing about the Jewish influence on the movement. Lenins Jewish origins are not verified by history and it seems he did not have a strong enough bloodline to be considered officially Jewish. Further the article concerning the Chinese communists only refers to one man. A far cry from 85 to 90%.

They're not gonna make that explicit on Wikipedia, but click through the "leaders" links, at least 9 are Jewish in the Early Life section.

huh?

and it seems he did not have a strong enough bloodline to be considered officially Jewish.

He was at least Jewish enough for automatic Israeli citizenship. Moreover he met with Chaim Weizmann to discuss the overthrow of the Romanovs years before the revolution.

Started with Rosa Luxemburg from the list of leaders. Honestly, she seems pretty fucking amazing. From a quick glance it seems she was WELL within her rights to oppose the Tsar's annexation of Poland. Fuck that shit. So have a lot of reading to do.

I got a book on Rosa Luxemburg, the first socialist I ever read about too. An interesting, Strong, and Independent woman.

Lenins Jewish origins are not verified by history

Despite undoubted pressure to say otherwise or to avoid the subject like the plague, it seems to be largely acknowledged by historians that he was at least 1/4 Jewish. His own sister even stated this. 1/4 Jewish means he would be considered Jewish under Israeli law and allowed to immigrate there.

Lenin's extreme philosemitism was unusual for Russians at the time, and Russian Jews were notoriously insular and hostile towards goys. They were far less integrated than say German Jews, which may partially be why the red terror and Soviet genocides that followed were so bloody. That Lenin would be so enamored with, trusted by, and surrounded by a group that normally had nothing but contempt for non Jews would seem extremely odd. His Jewish ancestry explains this, along with his ruthless hostility towards Russians and near total disregard for their lives.

20,000 Jews were in the Bolshevik ranks by 1921. They did not comprise 85% but they did front most of the prominent positions in the commissariat and Cheka.
