Crimea. A couple of months ago there was a question about the possibility of a return Russian territory was just beginning to be discussed in earnest. And so, the Ukrainian situation cleared up on its own, without military action. In order to expose the junta’s propaganda statements about illegal annexation, I will briefly describe the preparations and transfer of the territory of Crimea to Ukraine 60 years ago.

Crimea - Jewish Republic. Bolshevik plans

Lenin planned to create a Jewish Republic in Crimea. Stalin supported the idea. The Crimean land was pledged to American bankers - Jews by nationality. The final implementation was prevented only by dissatisfied indigenous people Crimea. This is in brief, and now we will consider in detail this difficult topic - Crimea and the Crimean Tatars.

Attempts to explain the expulsion Crimean Tatars There were many, but the propaganda machine worked hard to hide the truth. There is even a version according to which the Soviet government carried out the deportation because... The USSR sought to take possession of the Bosporus and Dardanelles straits, and then move on to Turkey. And the Crimean Tatars actively interfered with these plans. This option also includes the expulsion of Meskhetian Turks from Georgia from the territory bordering Turkey, as well as several others. Turkic peoples Caucasus: Balkars, Karachais, Chechens. However, even such powerful strategic plans did not explain the paradox of the “voluntary” move of more than 190 thousand people of the same nationality. But the whole reason is that Crimea was only being prepared for the territory of the state now called Israel, and the Tatars were too much of a nuisance with their disagreement.

Project Crimean California

With the advent of the New era economic policy the captured profits of the ideologists of the creation of an autonomous Jewish republic in Crimea. The idea was promoted by the American financial organization Joint, which officially represented the interests of the United States in Soviet Russia (there were no diplomatic relations with America at that time).
The Crimean problem began under Lenin (American agent Reinstein). Lurie (Yuri Larin) suddenly came up with the idea of ​​​​creating a Jewish republic in Crimea. The idea was suggested by Rosenberg from the Joint.

In 1922, Agro-Joint was created in Crimea and 186 collective farms were organized. Jews came from everywhere... Every year the Soviet government was supposed to receive 9OO thousand dollars from the Joint at 5% for 10 years.

In November 1923, Abram Bragin, the head of the Jewish section of the Russian Communist Party (Bolsheviks), prepared for the Politburo a draft decision on the creation in Crimea of ​​no longer an autonomous, but a full-fledged Soviet socialist Jewish republic. The project was named " Crimean California" As a result, the settlers were allocated 132 thousand hectares of land for it.

On February 19, 1929, the Joint and the Central Executive Committee of the RSFSR entered into an agreement under which the USSR received annual funding of one and a half million dollars. However, the cunning Americans asked for 375 thousand hectares of Crimea as a guarantee. The land was divided into shares and registered as shares, and the buyers were more than 200 American citizens, the most famous being Hoover, Rockefeller, Roosevelt, MacArthur, Marshall. If the USSR does not pay the debt before 1954, then it must give back Crimea.
The strange thing is that the money went through the Agro-Joint bank, bypassing the Soviet budget, directly to Jewish settlers. They were used to purchase food, equipment and supplies. Such “help” caused protests from Russians, Tatars, Germans, Bulgarians and Greeks living in Crimea. The Tatars destroyed trains carrying Jewish settlers. As a result of the riots, Stalin declared at a Politburo meeting that “Crimean California” gives the country nothing but national strife and in 1934 he created Birobidzhan.
And in 1936, the Crimea project was successfully closed and forgotten. The funds stopped coming (a total of $20 million was invested in the resettlers), but the resettlement itself did not stop.

According to census data:

• In 1939, more than 65 thousand Jews already officially lived on the territory of 44 village councils in the Freidorf region of Crimea.
• Crimean Tatars made up 19.4% of the peninsula’s population - 218,179.
• The main population is Russians.

The official languages ​​of the autonomous republic are Russian and Crimean Tatar. The basis of the administrative division was the national principle. 5 national districts (Alushta, Sudak, Bakhchisarai, Balaklava, Yalta) and 144 national village councils were considered Tatar. There, even education in schools was conducted in the Crimean Tatar language.

Eviction

In 1943, Roosevelt told Stalin at the Tehran Conference that if the Crimean California project was not revived, there could be problems with Lend-Lease supplies. Roosevelt himself had shares in a piece of land in Crimea.
I had to resuscitate...

In fulfillment of obligations to clear the peninsula for Jewish settlers, the Crimean Tatars were urgently evicted. On May 11, 1944, the “leader of all times and peoples” signed a decree of the USSR State Defense Committee on the deportation of the Crimean Tatar people to Uzbekistan.

However, additional reasons influenced this decision of the Soviet leadership. Or rather, the reasons were skillfully manipulated - facts of desertion, betrayal, collaboration with the Germans. I do not want to discuss this topic in this article (if anyone is interested, read in), if you look for similar facts, then half of Ukraine could be evicted under such an article... No matter how massive the cases of complicity with the invader, but to make a decision on the deportation of an entire people ( to be precise, before June 1, 1944, 191 thousand Crimean Tatars were evicted from Crimea) they cannot be the basis, it is necessary to determine the individual guilt of everyone, they must be punished according to their merits, and not according to an order according to a general template.

By Stalin's standards, evictions were carried out in a “soft” mode. The settlers were allowed to take

“personal items, dishes, household equipment, and food up to 5OO kg per family.”

People's Commissariat of Trade was obliged

“provide all trains with special settlers with hot meals and boiling water every day.”

Each train was equipped with medicines, a doctor and two nurses. Daily food allowance per person: bread – 5OO g, meat or fish – 7O g, cereals – 6O g, fats – 1O g. Upon arrival at the place of decree

“to ensure that arriving special settlers are provided with personal plots and to provide assistance in the construction of houses with local building materials”,

“a loan for the construction of houses and for economic establishment up to 5,000 rubles per family with installments up to 7 years.”

Two months of state provision of food to cover the abandoned property - 8 kg of flour, 8 kg of vegetables and 2 kg of cereal per person.

However, despite all the “softness” of the resettlement, in the first years, from 15 to 25% of those evicted died. According to statistics of Crimean Tatar activists, up to 46% died. Isn't this genocide? Although every nation can present a bitter account to the father of nations on this topic...

If you dig deeper, the Bolsheviks were going to resettle all the Tatars of Russia to Transbaikalia and Mongolia, in accordance with the false story they created about the Mongol-Tatars, because The Tatars interfered with the invaders due to their humane mentality, just like the Rus, whose numbers had catastrophically decreased since the time of Peter the Great.

The revelations of the false story about the “bad Tatars” are fully described in the books of Gali Enikeev:

1. "Crown of the Horde Empire"
2. "The Great Horde: Friends, Enemies and Heirs"
3. "In the footsteps of a black legend"
4. "Heritage of the Tatars"

Proclamation of the State of Israel

Stalin understood perfectly well that the Americans were not trying at all in the interests of Soviet Jews, so he put forward the condition that the territory of Crimea should remain in the status of an autonomous republic of the USSR. The US offered 10 billion in response! dollars of a loan to restore the country's economy, but in return Crimea would be allowed to secede from the Soviet Union. The tempting offer was rejected, and the topic of creating a “New California” again reached a dead end.

However, the Americans continued their shadow work in Crimea. In 1945, a highly confidential letter from J. Marshall to US Secretary of Commerce William Averell Harriman surfaced:

“Dear Averell! ...President Truman approves of your plans. He adds that the existence on the territory of CRIMEA of the Soviet Black Sea Fleet and the JEWISH Republic, open to the free entry of Jews from all over the world, are INCOMPATIBLE... Crimea should become a demilitarized zone. Let Stalin know that he MUST be READY to REBASE the FLEET from Sevastopol to Odessa and the Black Sea coast of the Caucasus. Then we will believe that the Crimean JEWISH Republic is a reality, and not a propaganda myth.”

Moreover, in plans, Jewish Crimean California from the Soviet Republic expanded to an INDEPENDENT JEWISH STATE, including: the entire Crimea, Odessa and Kherson regions, Sochi to the border with Abkhazia...

It was becoming dangerous to wait. At the same time, we had to create a situation in Palestine that distracted us from Crimea.

In 1947, at the UN, Stalin provided active support for the creation of an independent Israel. Portraits of Stalin still hang in some Israeli kibbutzim. The cult of personality of Joseph Vissarionovich was preserved, there is something to honor.

May 14, 1948. De facto, the USSR was the first and de jure the second (after the USA) to recognize the independence of Israel. Amid the excitement, thousands of Soviet Jews sent requests to the military registration and enlistment offices to be sent to Israel to fight the Arab countries, which had begun full-scale hostilities against the newly created state of the Jews.

Only during the War of Independence did the USSR and the USA unite on the side of Israel, for a short time. Further in the chronicle of the Arab-Israeli conflict there is only a confrontation between the superpowers. At the beginning of the Cold War, each fought for influence in the region, wanting to see the Jewish state, if not an ally, then a potential agent of influence. The Americans had a goal - to bury the British Empire, which owned the Suez Canal in Egypt. The USSR has special plans...

Propaganda of the Soviet press during the War of Independence denounced the British imperialists and Arab puppet regimes that were suppressing the Jewish national liberation movement. The USSR even allowed Czechoslovakia to supply Czech and Soviet-made weapons to Israel, which gave a huge advantage to the Jews in the war.

After the victory of the Jews, the representative of Ukraine to the UN D. Manuilsky proposed to resettle over half a million Arab refugees in our Central Asia, creating autonomous republic. Thank God this plan was not implemented...

It is widely believed that Stalin miscalculated in supporting the creation of the State of Israel. He allegedly hoped that this would turn out to be a state of workers and peasants, obedient to the Kremlin. Reasons: before the war, emigrants from Russia and Poland lived in Jewish Palestine, and after in Israel itself, among whom the ideas of socialism and communism were very popular. And of course, the popularity of the USSR among the Palestinians as a winner over Nazism. Stalin also intended to strengthen Israel's pro-communist orientation through the mass emigration of Soviet Jews. In general, at the dawn of the formation of the Jewish state, the USSR planned to bind Israel to itself for a long time.

As Cold War tensions grew, Stalin hoped to turn Israel into an outpost in the fight against world imperialism.
In fact, the father of nations reasoned more broadly, hoping to benefit from the creation of a Jewish state in any case.

• If Israel accepts the “red element”, the Promised Land will become the best friend of the USSR and a stronghold of the world revolution not only in this region.
• Otherwise, the USSR gets the entire Arab world as its allies - that’s also not bad.

However, the enthusiastic pro-Soviet mood lasted only a year. The Soviet press announced that Israel had returned the favor with black ingratitude by changing its political orientation to the West. At the same time, the Arabs only partially justified the hopes of the Soviet Union, although they are still not able to cope with Israel.
The real reason for “black ingratitude” was:

1. plans for the mass eviction of Soviet Jews to the Far East,
2. reprisal of the Jewish Anti-Fascist Committee,
3. "The Doctors' Case"

on this basis, even a split occurred in the Israeli Communist Party.

Why did Stalin need to ruin everything with such blatant anti-Jewish measures? There are many explanations, the relatively reasonable ones being the following. The leader decided to show that he no longer needed the support of the West, so important during the Second World War, and decided to enter the final battle with the world capitalist system. His suspicion reached a manic stage, and after the quarter-million Jews of Moscow created a furor at the meeting of the first Israeli ambassador in 1948, a total test of loyalty to Jewry was no longer required, the diagnosis was agents of the West.
Soon the JAC raised the question of creating a Jewish union republic in Crimea or the Volga region as a Soviet alternative to the already created Israel. But it turned out to be too late, the most that Moscow offered was a resolution of the CHK of the RSFSR “On measures to strengthen and further develop the economy of the Jewish Autonomous Region,” providing for the sending of 50 teachers and 20 doctors. Plus permission to publish the Birobidzhaner Shtern newspaper twice a week instead of once, an increase in its Russian-language circulation, the creation of a Jewish book publishing house in Birobidzhan and the publishing of an almanac in Yiddish.

Soon there came a wave of anti-Jewish repression. The Jewish intelligentsia was accused of seeking to tear Crimea away from the Union! All Jewish organizations (with the exception of several dozen synagogues controlled by the authorities) were closed. Jews who had relatives in America or Israel were accused of anti-Soviet activities, exiled to the Gulag, and exterminated in thousands by NKVD agents. Mass purges!

Under the guise of generously protecting Jews from pogroms, they were going to organize their mass eviction to Birobidzhan or Siberia. Already in January 1953, to implement this option, the Soviet media summed up the ideological justification for the upcoming action: the collective guilt of the Jewish people for the “crime” of the killer doctors. A special commission was created, headed by the head of the agitation and propaganda department of the CPSU Central Committee, M. Suslov. In Birobidzhan, barracks complexes similar to concentration camps were built rapidly. The deportation was to be carried out in two stages: first of all, purebred Jews, secondly, half-bloods. TO major cities Trains were being adjusted. Minister of Defense N. Bulganin later revealed that Stalin wished that during the movement of the trains, crashes and attacks by “detachments of people's avengers” would be staged.

Khrushchev continued his anti-Semitic policies without resorting to direct repression. Under him, Judaism was declared obscurantist. Synagogues were closed at an even more rapid pace, and Jews were not allowed to gather for prayer even in private homes; it got to the point that baking matzo was banned.

Crimea - Ukraine

In 1954, the deadline came for the return of funds received for “New California” (the money, it turns out, was given on credit). Despite the fact that for the war with the Arabs the USSR transferred to Israel a significant amount of captured German weapons, agreed upon as repayment of the Joint debt (the first stage of the settlement occurred in 1945), America considered that the settlement was carried out in an insufficient volume, and was preparing to demand the declared agreement on Crimean land.

The Jewish state was not created in Crimea, and since 1998 the return resettlement of the Crimean Tatars to their homeland began. But they returned the Tatars with a built-in virus of hatred, evil and hating RUSSIANS! Those who hate not the Jews, who initiated all this, but the Russians...

In fact, from ancient times Crimea belonged to two friendly ethnic groups - the Rus and the Tatars. And in the future it will also belong to them. To do this, both ethnic groups must restore their ancestral ties, realize themselves and become themselves. They are separated only by the ideologists of false history from the enemies of our ancestors.

Crimea - Antov territory

It will definitely count at the tribunal!

Project "Crimean California". Why was Stalin killed?

Why were the Crimean Tatars expelled? Jewish Republic in Crimea!

Blog creator, Anderstender.

There have already been several posts on the topic of statements by Rada deputy A. Artemenko regarding the transfer of Crimea to the Americans..

The topic was raised earlier, I found this post on LiveJournal, in which they try to explain all the ins and outs of this matter. http://masterdl.livejournal.com/569919.html

To judge those and current times objectively, you should at least take an interest in the “Crimean California” project or the case of the Chairman of the Crimean Central Executive Committee, Veli Ibraimov. In fact, the question is much deeper. The deportation of 1944 should be considered an act of tragedy that is not completed to this day. Project " New California", which initially, in addition to Crimea, was supposed to include the lands of the Kherson and Odessa regions, as well as the Krasnodar Territory to the border with Abkhazia, since 1923 the Joint (American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee) has been involved.

Back in November 1923, the head of the Jewish section of the RCP (b), Abram Bragin, submitted to the Politburo a draft decision on the creation of a Soviet socialist Jewish republic. In 1927, Yuri Larin (Lurie) proposed a set of new measures for the settlement of Jewish settlers in Crimea. Since 1929 The Joint issued targeted loans for “Crimean California” on the security of Crimean lands. The debts became due in 1945. In case of non-repayment of debt before 1954. the mortgaged lands were to be transferred to the shareholders. And they became more than 200 Americans, including future presidents Roosevelt and Hoover, financiers Rockefeller and Marshall, General MacArthur. The resettlement began, but was met with opposition from local authorities. The opposition to the Center was led by the Chairman of the Crimean Central Election Commission Veli Ibraimov. He had a plan to resettle landless Crimean Tatars and repatriate up to 200 thousand people from Turkey and Romania. According to Crimean Tatar sources, Ibraimov acted sharply and irreconcilably, he even personally turned back the arriving trains with Jewish settlers. Stalin summoned him to Moscow, the conversation, as Ibraimov was later able to tell, was cool, and upon his return he was arrested. Among the thirteen charges, he was credited with the murder of the red partisan Ibrahim Choloka, harboring the Hayser Amet gang and others. At the trial, Ibraimov called the real reason reprisals being carried out on him. But Veli Agha’s suicide note also contained the following words: “Communo-Zionist unity is killing me because I defended the rights of the Crimean Tatars, planned to gather them in their homeland... and moved to action.” It is not said to what purpose, but this was by no means written for the court that had already passed a verdict. Tragic fate This man, who sincerely considered himself a Bolshevik, can be explained by the fact that he was not familiar with Marxism. It clearly states that the proletariat has no fatherland, that it must establish its dictatorship under the banner of proletarian internationalism. Ibraimov sincerely believed that being a Bolshevik, he could remain a Crimean Tatar, have a homeland, and even take care of his people. Before him, Jews were sent to Crimea: Rosalia Zemlyachka (Zalkind), Bela Kun (Kogan), Yuri Gaven (Dauman). They internationalized to their heart's content, shooting more than 200 thousand officers, representatives of the clergy, and intelligentsia and artificially creating the famine of 1921-22, in which at least 60 thousand more died. And Veli aga gave the land, declared an amnesty and the fight stopped. (Subsequently, the Leninist guard was exterminated by Stalin, which even the Crimean Tatars credit to him).

A few days after Ibraimov’s confession and the arrest of his group (in total, about 3.5 thousand were repressed), Larin made a proposal to create a Jewish Republic. The Committee for the Land System of Jewish Workers and the Public Committee for the Land System of Jewish Workers were created. KomZET was headed by Smidovich, and OZET by Larin. Discontent began on the part of the local population, especially the Crimean Tatars, which definitely subsequently influenced their relations with the Soviet authorities. Published in the period 1942-44. the Crimean Tatar newspaper Azat Krym (Free Crimea) called it “Chufut-Bolshevik”. It's impossible to argue with anything.

But already in the 30s, Karl Radek uttered the famous phrase: “Moses led the Jews out of Egypt, and Stalin - from the Politburo.” Then in the Khabarovsk Territory. The Jewish Autonomous Region was formed, the employees of the Joint were accused of espionage and expelled, and its branch in the USSR was liquidated by the Decree of the Politburo of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks on May 4, 1938. But in Crimea there are two autonomous Jewish districts (Freidorf in 1930 and Larindorf in 1935) was nevertheless created. Some sources mention another one - Telmansky). The first two included 29 local Jewish councils and occupied 4.5 thousand square meters. km with a population of about 80 thousand people. Yiddish was the language of office work, teaching, and periodicals here. According to Jewish sources, the radio newspaper Emes (Truth) was published in October 1930. There was a mobile Jewish theater. The newspaper Lenin Veg (Lenin's Way) was published. You can read about this in the book “Jewish Collective Farmers” by N. Gotovchikov and the President of the Association of Jewish Communities and Organizations of Crimea A. Gendin. In May of this year (2010) it was released in Simferopol. In addition, according to the chairman of the Yalta Jewish community, Vladlen Naftulevich Lyustin, his father was the director of an agricultural technical school, where teaching was conducted in Yiddish, and Hebrew was included in the curriculum.

At this time, great attention was paid to the construction of housing for displaced people. In 1928, 441 residential buildings were built, in 1931 - 3828. Compare this with the rate of “repatriation” of Crimean Tatars in free Ukraine. By the way, in the neighboring Crimea of ​​the Ukrainian SSR, on January 1, 1927, over 107 thousand Jews (seven percent of the Jewish population of the republic) worked in agricultural production, and in 1936 - already over 200 thousand. The largest Jewish district was Stalindorf in the Kherson region. He led the nation-state and cultural construction in the 1920s. Jewish subsection of the Department of National Minorities of the NKVD of the Ukrainian SSR. The NKVD is the NKVD, but it was financed directly by the same “Joint”, which spent $30 million on Crimean California alone, which at that time was a huge amount of money, which no one was going to forgive.

They recalled Crimean California in 1943. During the Tehran Conference, in a conversation with Stalin, Roosevelt informed that his administration would soon have problems with supplies to the USSR under Lend-Lease if the “Crimean California” project was not revived. Milovan Djilas, the future vice-president of Yugoslavia, wrote about this. He and Josip Broz Tito secretly flew to the USSR and in a personal conversation asked Stalin why the Tatars were deported from Crimea in the spring of 1944. According to him, Stalin referred to the obligations given to Roosevelt clear Crimea for Jewish settlers. Note that in the text of the Resolution of the State Defense Committee on May 11, 1944, there is not a word about the nature of the deportation as retribution for cooperation with the occupation authorities. At the same time, Field Marshal Manstein wrote in the book “Lost Victories”: “We even managed to form armed self-defense companies from the Tatars, whose task was to protect their villages from attacks by partisans hiding in the Yayla mountains. The reason is that a powerful partisan movement developed in Crimea from the very beginning, which caused us a lot of trouble...” You can’t erase a word from a song, but why insert a whole black legend into it? It is certain that the myth of the “traitorous people” was invented and exaggerated later, and this is worth understanding. A year before the liberation of Crimea, a delegation of the Jewish Anti-Fascist Committee of the USSR was sent to the USA, and then to Mexico, Canada and England. Before the trip, its leader Solomon Mikhoels was instructed by Beria himself. There is no information about his recruitment, but this is not what happens in intelligence work. The head of department “C” of the USSR MGB, Lieutenant General Pavel Sudoplatov, recalls: “... Mikhoels and Fefer, our trusted agent (who was personally in touch with State Security Commissioner Raikhman - author), were instructed to probe the reaction of influential foreign Zionist organizations to the creation of a Jewish republics in Crimea. This task of a special reconnaissance probe - establishing, under the leadership of our residency in the United States, contacts with the American Zionist movement in 1943-1944 - was successfully completed.” In the USA, the “Crimean problem” was discussed everywhere. Thus, Julius Rosenberg, the head of the Soviet intelligence network in the United States, is credited with the words: “Crimea interests us not only as Jews, but also as Americans, since Crimea is the Black Sea, the Balkans and Turkey.” Until Rosenberg's hands former leaders We didn’t have time to reach it. In 1953, the Americans put him in the electric chair. Sudoplatov further writes that besides Molotov, Lozovsky and several senior officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Mikhoels was the only person who knew about the existence of Stalin’s plan to create a Jewish state in Crimea. “In this way, Stalin expected to receive 10 billion dollars from the West to restore the economy destroyed by the war.” And this after a trip to the USA?! Indeed: on the page below the author refutes himself: “... the idea of ​​a Jewish republic in Crimea was openly discussed in Moscow not only among the Jewish population, but also in the highest echelons of power” and claims that the intentions of the leader of the peoples were not sincere, but his true goal there was a “divorce” of American Jews. However, on February 15, 1944, a letter signed by the Chairman of the Presidium of the Jewish Anti-Fascist Committee of the USSR S. Mikhoels, Executive Secretary Sh. Epstein and Deputy Chairman of the Presidium I. Fefer landed on Vyacheslav Molotov’s desk:

"...The creation of the Jewish Soviet Republic would once and for all resolve in a Bolshevik manner, in the spirit of Lenin-Stalinist national policy, the problem of the state-legal status of the Jewish people and further development its age-old culture. No one has been able to solve this problem for many centuries, and it can only be resolved in our great socialist country. ...
Based on the above, we propose:
1. Create a Jewish Soviet socialist republic on the territory of Crimea.
2. In advance, before the liberation of Crimea, appoint a government commission to develop this issue»

In June of the same year, the President of the American Chamber of Commerce, Eric Johnston, and the US Secretary of Commerce, Averell Harriman, arrived in Moscow; They were already dividing up portfolios: the Americans proposed Michaels as the head of Crimea, Stalin insisted on Lazar Kaganovich. Johnston and Harriman offered a loan against a self-sufficient Jewish state; Stalin bargained and wanted the Jewish state to remain part of the USSR. And then it turned out that American Jews were demanding the withdrawal of the Black Sea Fleet from Sevastopol.

« Purely confidential.

To the US Secretary of Commerce A. Harriman

Dear Averell! The President approves of your plans. He added the following to them. The coexistence on the territory of Crimea of ​​the base of the Soviet Black Sea Fleet and the Jewish Republic, open to the free entry of Jews from all over the world, seems to be an incongruity fraught with unpredictable consequences. This caused him to doubt the reality from the very beginning." Crimean project" Crimea should become a demilitarized zone. Let Stalin know that he must be prepared to relocate the fleet from Sevastopol to Odessa and the Black Sea coast of the Caucasus. Then we will believe that the Crimean Jewish Republic is a reality and not a propaganda myth.

J.Marshall"

To prove this reality, the Crimean Tatars were evicted from Crimea, followed by the Bulgarians, Greeks and others, whose involvement in cooperation with the occupiers was not discussed at all. This is definitely not where the dog was buried. The Allies made sure of the cleanup during the Crimean (Yalta) Conference. Taking into account Roosevelt’s Tehran “request,” it, in this sense, became a kind of inspection trip. During the Great Patriotic War, the peoples of the USSR acquired a new super-ethnic community that generalized them - the Russian people. And soon Stalin came to the conclusion that proletarian internationalism turned out to be rootless cosmopolitanism. Solomon Mikhoels, according to Pavel Sudoplatov, was killed, and his comrades in the Jewish Anti-Fascist Committee were accused of plotting to secede Crimea from the USSR and were shot. Then there was a purge of Jews from the apparatus of the Central Committee and the MGB (even Kheifitz, who obtained a secret from American Jewish scientists for the USSR, was not spared atomic bomb and the organizer of the murder of Trotsky Eitington), the “doctors’ case,” and more broadly, the “Zionist conspiracy” to seize power."
Note. The construction of the naval base in Odessa really began in those years, but at the time of the collapse of the USSR, only a framed division remained in Odessa submarines"German" (post-war) projects.
The “clearing” of Crimea in 1944 was a nightmare - according to various estimates, 75-80% of the population was forcibly displaced. Instead of demilitarization, Crimea was “stuffed” with troops as much as possible and in this state it survived the collapse of the USSR.

Project "Crimean California"

Project "Crimean California"

In November 1914, the Joint Distribution Committee of American Funds for Relief of Jews Suffering from the War was organized in the United States. The richest Jews in the world subsidized this organization, but its goals were not so much charitable as commercial.

Mikhoels and Fefer. Photograph from the 1940s.

In the early 1920s. one of the leaders of the Joint, lawyer James Rosenberg, met with his father-in-law N.I. Bukharin and a prominent economic figure of Soviet Russia M.Z. Lurie (psv. Yuri Larin). They discussed the possibility of creating a Jewish state on the Crimean peninsula. Lurie was inspired by the idea, and he began lobbying the government for it.

At first V.I. Lenin was given the idea of ​​receiving a loan from American millionaires through the Joint on the security of Crimean land, and he agreed. Crimea was divided into shares, against which government bills were issued. In the shortest possible time, the bills were bought by 200 shareholders, including the Roosevelt family, the Hoovers, and the leaders of the Joint led by millionaire Lewis Marshall. The loan was to be transferred by the Joint to the Soviet government for 10 years at 900 thousand dollars annually at 5% per annum. The money had to be returned before 1954. In case of non-repayment, Crimea became the property of the owners of the bills. In the States, this project was called “Crimean California”.

In 1923, J. Rosenberg organized an exhibition of American agricultural machinery in Moscow. Lenin, who was already terminally ill, visited her, and behind the scenes they promised him that the Joint was ready to equip the whole of Russia with equipment if a Jewish Republic was organized in Crimea within the framework of the USSR. The leader reacted favorably to the idea.

In 1924, the Joint created the Agro-Joint corporation with its residence in Simferopol. During the year, many Jews from Belarus, Ukraine, Bulgaria and other regions were brought to the peninsula and 186 national collective farms (!) were organized. At the same time, KomZET (Committee for the Land Arrangement of Jewish Workers) was formed under the Presidium of the Council of Nationalities of the Central Executive Committee of the USSR, which, from the Soviet side, took up the problems of the development of Crimea by Jews. The soul of this business was M.Z. Lurie. In 1925, to help KomZET, OZET was established - the Society for Land Management of Jewish Workers. KrymoZET led the work of resettling Jews on the peninsula, and the proclamation of the Jewish Socialist Republic was being prepared.

Stalin understood perfectly well what trap the Joint was trying to drive the country into, and was preparing for a long struggle. Already in March 1928, on his initiative, the Presidium of the Central Executive Committee of the USSR adopted a resolution “On assigning to KomZET for the needs of the complete settlement of free lands in the Amur region of the Far Eastern Territory by working Jews.” When the leader felt that he had defeated the main enemies in the party leadership, on August 20, 1930, the Central Executive Committee of the RSFSR adopted a resolution “On the formation of the Biro-Bidzhan National District as part of the Far Eastern Territory.” Power in the USSR finally passed into the hands of Joseph Vissarionovich in 1934, and on May 7 of the same year, the Jewish National Region received the status of the Jewish Autonomous Region. The issue of Jewish statehood was resolved outside of Crimea.

Meanwhile, the peninsula was expanding national movement Crimean Tatars, outraged by the settlement of their lands by alien Jews. At first, the Tatars only turned away trains with immigrants, and later pogroms of Jewish collective farms began. Stalin stated on this occasion that it was impossible to incite nationalist hatred, and stopped the resettlement.

The idea of ​​​​creating a Jewish state on the territory of Crimea came to life again with the establishment on April 7, 1942 of the Jewish Anti-Fascist Committee (JAC). The chairman of the JAC was the theater director S.M. Mikhoels. The committee's assets, in particular, included the poet I.S. Fefer, a prominent party leader and wife of Foreign Minister V.M. Molotov – P.S. Pearl.

In the summer of 1943, Mikhoels and Fefer made a long trip around the United States. Officially, they propagated the idea of ​​a Second Front in the Jewish diaspora, but in reality, secretly from Stalin, but with the sanction of Molotov, they discussed the feasibility of creating a Jewish state in Crimea.

Stalin received the result of this trip at the Tehran Conference in late November - early December 1943. President F. Roosevelt openly stated that the United States was forced to stop Lend-Lease supplies to the USSR and could not open a Second Front, since the all-powerful Jewish lobby in his country demanded Bolsheviks fulfilling obligations on bills - resolving the issue with “Crimean California”: either start paying off debts, or establish a Jewish Republic in Crimea. At the height of the war, the country did not have the funds to pay. Stalin was actually driven into a corner, and he agreed to start preparatory work on the creation of the Jewish Republic - at the request of the American owners of bills, the Crimean Tatars were deported as the main obstacle to the resettlement of Jews to the peninsula. Another condition of the United States was the decree at the head of the new republic S.M. Mikhoels, not L.M. Kaganovich, as Stalin assumed. And this was also agreed to.

A couple of months after the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki (carried out on August 6 and 9, 1945), US Ambassador to the USSR W.A. Harriman, on behalf of President G. Truman (F. Roosevelt died on April 12, 1945), in the form of an ultimatum, demanded that the USSR withdraw the Black Sea Fleet from Sevastopol and the Black Sea and establish a Jewish independent state, which was to include the Crimean Peninsula and the entire Soviet Black Sea coast up to Abkhazia (including Sochi), as well as Kherson and Odessa regions. Otherwise, Stalin was threatened with the atomic bombing of several dozen central Russian cities.

Stalin tried to object, saying that at the First Zionist Congress of 1897 in Basel, Jewish nationalists decided to revive Israel in Palestine, and that it was wrong to violate the choice of the people. To this they made him understand that one is not an obstacle to the other.

The USSR did not have atomic weapons in 1945. The Americans did not have enough bombs for a massive bombing of our country. The race against time has begun. The Americans stockpiled bombs. The Kremlin, firstly, having sharply expanded and strengthened the Gulag, began the secret construction of the Road of Life (today it is called the Dead Road) for the evacuation of the Russian population to Siberia and the North Far East in case the center of the country is bombed by the Americans and contaminated with radiation; secondly, work on the production of our own atomic weapons intensified, L.P. took over the leadership of the atomic project. Beria; thirdly, the Kremlin undertook to comprehensively help the Jews who fought for the creation of a Jewish state in Palestine. In 1946 alone, about 100 thousand weapons were transported to Palestine through Bulgaria - machine guns, machine guns, howitzers.

On May 14, 1948, the creation of the independent Jewish state of Israel was proclaimed, and on May 15, the First Arab-Israeli War began - Israel was attacked by the League of Arab States (Syria, Egypt, Lebanon, Iraq and Transjordan). The war lasted until July 1949. Almost at the very beginning, Israel went over to the side of the United States: it is assumed that the Jewish lobby in Congress promised the expansion of the new state at the expense of the south of the USSR, incl. Crimea.

In September 1948, Golda Meir, a prominent figure in the Zionist movement, became Israel's first ambassador to the USSR. To coincide with her arrival, the JAC and the Moscow Synagogue organized mass protests by Soviet Jews. The current media claim that this is how the people welcomed the birth of the state of Israel. According to declassified KGB data, the main demand of the rallies was the formation of a Jewish Republic in Crimea. Over the course of two weeks, two rallies took place in Moscow, each of which was attended by 50 thousand people. And this is in a nuclear-free country, precisely because of the Crimean problem, blackmailed by atomic bombings.

Back in mid-January 1948, on the personal orders of Stalin, Mikhoels, a candidate for ruler of the Jewish Republic, was killed (thrown under a truck and crushed). Now the time has come to put an end to the JAC itself. On November 20, 1948, the Committee was dissolved, and in December its entire leadership was repressed. On August 12, 1952, 30 members of the JAC were shot. Molotov's wife - P.S. Zhemchuzhina, who literally did not leave Golda Meir’s side before her arrest, was sentenced to five years of exile. Stalin preferred to remain silent about Crimea and atomic blackmail; the JAC was accused of treason in favor of the United States and of cosmopolitanism.

But the struggle for Jewish Crimea did not stop there. In 1952, the murder in August 1948 of Stalin’s officially appointed successor, A.A., was revealed. Zhdanov. The latter had a heart attack, but Kremlin doctors (all of Jewish nationality) treated Zhdanov for another illness with intense physical exercise. Due to an oversight, Belarusian L.F. was allowed to visit the patient at the dacha. Timashuk, who took his cardiogram and wrote down the diagnosis - myocardial infarction. The attending doctors blackmailed the woman into rewriting the diagnosis and removing the word “heart attack” from it. Timashuk tried to seek support from higher authorities, but her appeals were sabotaged there. On August 31, 1948, Zhdanov died. The results of the autopsy were apparently falsified, because “their” people did the autopsy. Subsequently, fake cardiograms were planted in the medical case.

However, in 1952, Timashuk’s notes about the “improper treatment of Zhdanov” fell into the hands of Stalin, and the “doctors’ case” began to unfold. Of course, after all, the murder of the leader’s most trusted person occurred in mid-1948 - at the peak of atomic blackmail and the rally war for Jewish Crimea.

As the investigation into the “Doctors' Case” progressed, it became clear to Stalin that the Jewish intelligentsia would never forgive him for the loss of Crimea. The leader decided to put an end to this lawlessness at once. First of all, the political positions of the party leaders close to the Jews were weakened: V.M. Molotova, L.M. Kaganovich, K.E. Voroshilova, A.I. Mikoyan. By the beginning of 1953, in strict secrecy, the KGB developed and began implementing Operation White Partridge, which involved the deportation of 100 thousand Jews (mainly party and government workers and intelligentsia from Moscow, Leningrad and a number of major cities) to the island of Spitsbergen in the Arctic Ocean. For this purpose, 18 ships were equipped. In Moscow, Stalin entrusted preparations for the deportation of the noisiest part of the Jewish diaspora to his confidant - the second secretary of the Moscow city committee of the CPSU E.A. Furtseva. The deportation was supposed to take place in June 1953. But on March 5, 1953, Stalin died under strange circumstances.

In 1949, the USSR became a nuclear power. They could no longer blackmail him. It seemed that the problem of Crimea was finally resolved. But the bills signed by the Russian government remained. Stalin took this into account too. After his death, on the eve of the expiration of N.S.’s bills. Khrushchev carried out the famous Stalinist maneuver: on February 19, 1954, Crimea was transferred from the RSFSR to the Ukrainian SSR, recognized by the entire world community as an independent state within the USSR. Ukraine did not hold any pledges. The bills were thus canceled without compensation, and the Crimean California project collapsed completely.
