The Balfour Declaration and the commitment by Britain, France, and America to the Jewish colonization of Palestine established a wedge between the Jewish-Communist leadership and the masses of non-Jewish members of the soviets throughout Russia. With the rise of a formal British-protected Jewish establishment in Palestine, the loyalty of the Jewish communists was diverted from Russia to Israel. Although the leadership of the Central Committee was, at first, totally in the hands of Jews with Zionist sympathies, the masses of non-Jews in lower positions in the local Soviets rebelled against this Jewish/Zionist betrayal of the Revolution. Stalin exploited these rising anti-Zionist feelings to out flank the Jewish Troika --Zionieve, Kamanev, and Trotsky---and gain power in the Central Committee. (Stalin was never anti-Jewish but rather anti-Zionist. Stalin's wife was Jewish, his son and daughter were both married to Jews. Stalin's daughter was married to Beria's daughter.) In 1928 Stalin tried to regain the loyalty of the Zionist/Communist Jews by establishing a Jewish Autonomous region in Birobidzhan. Staling declared Birobidzhan an autonomous Jewish state in l934. So the Jews finally had a Jewish state again after some 19000 years of being stateless. Some fourteen years later the Palestinian colony of Jews declared a second Jeiwhs state in Palestine. The Jewish state of Birodbidzhan is located in a remote corner of Asia near the Manchurian border, in the Khabarovsk district. Most Zionists Jews in Russia rejected Stalin's Jewish state and continued to push for further colonization of Palestine. Now that the Communist Jews had their own autonomous ethnic state, they could no longer use the excuse that they supported Zionism because Jews had no state. The sypathies of the Jewish-communist leaders in the Soviet Union continued to favor Zionism and Israel. Stalin's autonomous Jewish state in Birodbidzahn failed to change the dual loyalties of the Communist Jews. The majority of Jewish-Russian citizens continued to put loyalty for Israel/Judaism ahead of loyalty to their native land. Consequently, it was for the Russian people to develop antagonistic feelings towards these treacherous so-called Jewish/communist citizens of Russia.
