The Soviet regime and anti-Zionism

Enlarge text Shrink text

Asserts that Stalin's policy toward the Jews after 1947 marked a fundamental change in the Soviet attitude to Zionism. Lenin's theory of Zionism as a bourgeois ideology was replaced by an anti-Zionist ideology which masks the crudest forms of official antisemitism. Examines Soviet publications (press and books), concluding that the "evil" connotations of Zionism peaked between 1967-70, in 1976, and 1979-81 in direct connection with the Six Day War, Soviet pro-Arab and anti-Israel policy, and Soviet anti-emigration propaganda. Remarks on the use of Soviet Jews in the anti-Zionist campaigns, the attempts to link Zionism to Nazism, and allegations of a world Zionist conspiracy. Distinguishes a division of opinion concerning Zionism since the mid-1970s, between a moderate quasi-Leninist school and a neo-Stalinist one promoting violent anti-Zionism, with openly antisemitic features. Includes statistics and graphs on the number of anti-Zionist and antisemitic articles and books published between 1960-80.
