"Anti-Semitism is an ex- treme form of racial chauvinism, a dangerous sur- vival of cannibalism," he said in 1931. "Anti-Semitism is dangerous for the workers as a false path leading them off the correct road and taking them into the jungle. Therefore Communists, as consistent internationalists, cannot but be consistent enemies of anti-Semitism." Yet when much of the world grew horrified beholding Hitler's demoniac war against the Jews, neither the Soviet iron man nor any of his top associates expressed shock at the treatment of Jews by Hitler and his sycophantic stormtroolers. At war's end, Stalin's own war against Russia's Jews started with a determination to belittle-the stature of Jews, to exclude them from party membership, deny them educational opportunities, and to bar them from diplomatic service. This harsh policy reached- its climax on Jan. 13, 1953, when Pravda proclaimed the unmasking of Jewish doctors as "conspiratorial assassins of Soviet leaders." In the orgy of arrests, im- prisonment, and cruel treat- ment of eminent and indeed innocent medical men that followed, Pravda declared _ nine outstanding doctors had confessed murdering two Soviet leaders. Among those victims of the infamous Russian Doctors' Plot was one of Moscow's most skillful and respected pathologists, Dr. Yakov Rapoport. Now 90, Rapoport has emerged as a hero in the news in Moscow. After patiently and quietly recording the false accusations, the prison ordeal and the nightmares during his incarceration over the years, Rapoport is now ex- periencing the thrill of know- ing that caring Muscovites are reading his memoirs published in the monthly Druzhba Narodov. The Doctors' Plot can be traced back to the end of 1952, when Lidia Timashuk, a radiologist in the Kremlin Hospital and a secret agent of the KGB, claimed in a diabolical letter to Stalin that she had noticed eminent doc- tors employing wrong treat- ment methods. Stalin took personal charge of the ensuing probe, telling his agents they would lose their heads if they failed to obtain confessions from the doctor "suspects." Eventually Pravda was able to report that eminent doctors had confessed to murdering two Soviet leaders and con- spiring to murder three others. The doctors were branded foreign agents — after all, most of them work- • ed for the Joint Distribution Committee. By this time, Stalin's con- tempt for what he viewed as an international Jewish con- spiracy had reached its acme. When he sneered at "Cosmopolitanism," he was venting fierce 'hatred of Jews. Anti-Semitism had become an integral factor of official Communist policy, while the Zionist movement was seen as counter-revolutionary. "Anti-Semitism is an extreme form of racial chauvinism, a dangerous survival of cannibalism," Stalin said. _ He had looked with jaundic- ed eye upon the marriage of his daughter, Svetlana, to a Jew and forced her to divorce him. Likewise, his son, Vasili, had to divorce his Jewish wife. Stalin, in time, had journeyed from the days he had branded anti-Semitism a dangerous survival of can- nibalism. There have even been reports that he died in a paroxysm of anti-Jewish vituperation. And what of the heinous Doctors' Plot? Stalin died on March 5, 1953. Twenty-nine days later, Pravda revealed the fakery of their savage Doctors' Plot. Not long ago, Mikhail Gorbachev made cen- sorious mention of the Doc- tors' Plot as had Nikita Khrushchev in 1956. Dr. Rapoport understands well such twists and turns in the history of the Soviet Union. Jewish Telegraphic Agency
