1919: The Pinsk Massacre
ExecutedToday.com ^ | April 5, 1919 | Headsman

A century ago today, a Polish army major had 35 Jews executed in Pinsk.

After the devastation of World War I, Poland and now-Soviet Russia fell into war in early 1919 over the oft-trod lands between them.

In late March of that year — still the opening weeks of the conflict — the Polish 34th Infantry Regiment commanded by Major Aleksander Narbut-Luczynski captured the town of Pinsk which today lies just on the Belarus side of the Belarus-Ukraine border. This town had seen occupying armies cross it to and fro during the recent bloody years: Germany captured it from Russia in 1915; the Soviets recaptured it shortly after World War I; now, the Poles expelled the Red Army.

They weren’t exactly greeted as liberators. Town and occupiers alike were on edge when Major Narbut-Luczynski caught word of about 75 Jews holding a meeting.

No explanation: was he killing communists or jews in his bad decision?

Was this really a meeting about care packages?

What a stupid useless article.

Was Jesus killed because he was a Jew or because he was an affront to the pharisee’s power?

Because the Romans were nazis, of course.

All Jews are not Bolshevicks, and all Jews did not kill the Romanov family and install a Communist/Marxiat regime

The Bolshevicks threw Russia into a multi decade nightmare
Many Bolshevicks were Jews
Makes sense the Poles had a bolo for Bolshevicks, revolutionairies and Traitors. The Poles did not have a bolo for run of the mill Jews

Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin, born in eastern Georgia, outlasted his close circle of Bolshevicks

Stalin enrolled in the Russian Orthodox Theological Seminary in Tiflis. The seminary’s journal noted that he declared himself an atheist, stalked out of prayers and refused to doff his hat to monks. Stalin devoted himself to Marx’s socio-political theory, Marxism,which was then on the rise in Georgia, one of various forms of socialism opposed to the Tsarist empire’s authorities.At night, he attended secret workers’ meetings and was introduced to Silibistro “Silva” Jibladze, the Marxist founder of Mesame Dasi (”Third Group”), a Georgian socialist

Lev Davidovich Bronstein better known as Leon Trotsky, born into a wealthy Jewish family.

Vladimir Ilyich Ulyano better known as Vladimir Lenin. In January 1886, when Lenin was 15, his father died of a brain haemorrhage. Subsequently, his behaviour became erratic and confrontational, and he renounced his belief in God.
