Bolshevik is a term of contempt made use of by Russian Aristocracy and The Tsar Wasn't it. To whip up hatred of jews to distract people from the situation in Russia was a favourite tactic of The Church and The Ruling class wasn't it. When The Russian Revolutionaries came to power would they already know it for what it was. The system set up was all inclusive why would they attack jews. Was anti-semitism able to trump a system built on Marxist ideas. It could exist but what would be the point.Why blame only Russians in new power.

Tsar Nicholas established the progroms against the Jews of Russia. He took away their right to own land. He took their civil rights away. By 1880 through 1890, America saw its largest single influx of people in history. The Russian Aristocracy, The Russian Orthodox Church, and Tsar were the people who gained from this.

The original Marxists of which Lenin was a believer, had a split in direction in which way was the correct way to spread Marxism. The largest part of the Marxist's were known as Bolshevik, which is Russian for majority. The smaller part of the split was known as Menelik, which is Russian for Minority. One of the largestest supporters of the Bolsheviks were the Russian Jewish Population. They wrongly believed that under a Marxist Rule life would be better for them then under the Tsar. As it is in most revolutions, when Lenin finally came to power he immediately slaughtered the Jewish Intelligentsia who got him the power he really wanted.
