Please do not call these people "Russians."
They were Russian.
So soviets were not Russians?
It is about the devised overthrow of Tsarist Russia by the jews and the coming of the jews into power through the jewish ideology of communism.
War with quotes does not clear up the situation anyway, to prove my claim about the bolshevik ie. jewish revolution I will give you links to the biographies of the few high-ranking jews who overthrew Tsarist Russia.
Now here are the bearers of the revolution, all of them jews ie. members of the "chosen" people:

So it does not surprise you that jews were overrepresented, as if there were no Russian intellectuals at the time but they were all illiterate peasants?
Judeo-communists butchered and removed the entire intellectual elite of Russia, to come to power and topple their hateful often anti-jewish Tsarist Russia, which did not allow usury because of its economic policies which were based on Christian principles. There were about 6 million jews in Russia, and that is a terrible destructive force.
