Since the First Zionist Congress, held in Basel in 1897, Jewish organizations around the world have intensified their search for ways to create a Jewish state in Palestine, Africa and South America. Russian Jews did not lag behind, they not only developed a project for the so-called South Russian Republic on the territory of Crimea, Volyn and Podolia with the capital in Odessa, but also made an unsuccessful attempt to implement it in 1905. After that, the project was forgotten and was remembered only after a decade and a half in America.

BOLSHEVIKS AND JOINT – FRIENDSHIP FOREVER

In 1923, a Jewish charitable organization from the United States, the JDC (American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee), proposed to the Soviet government “a project beneficial for the USSR to create a Soviet Union Jewish autonomy", which includes Odessa, Kherson, the northern part of Crimea, the Black Sea coast to Abkhazia and Sochi. In the United States, both this project and this future public entity were known as “Crimean California.”
To begin with, it was planned to resettle 500 thousand Jews from the western regions of Ukraine and Belarus to the autonomy. In return, the Joint promised the Soviet Union assistance in obtaining large loans and lobbying its interests in the United States.
The Joint's proposals were actively supported by Trotsky, Zinoviev, Kamenev and approved by V.I. Lenin. During the discussion of the project, appetites had to be tempered and a Jewish Autonomous Republic within the RSFSR had to be created only on the territory of Crimea. But even here it turned out to be a “bummer” - J.V. Stalin intervened and insisted that, to begin with, we should limit ourselves only to the creation of a committee for the land management of Jews in Crimea (KomZET), and make final decisions based on what had already been achieved practical results. The wheel of the Crimean project has begun to spin.
On July 21, 1924, by resolution of the Joint Executive Committee, the Agro-Joint Corporation was created, the main task of which was to settle several hundred Jewish families in the south of Russia in order to determine the possibility of mass Jewish colonization in the USSR.
KomZET was created on August 29, 1924 by decree of the Central Executive Committee of the USSR, with the aim of attracting the Jewish population to productive agricultural work. On the initiative of interested party circles, on January 17, 1925, the Land Management Society of Jewish Workers (OZET) was organized to help KomZET.
On November 29, 1924, Agro-Joint entered into an agreement on organizing the land management of Jews with the Soviet government, on whose behalf KomZET acted. The essence of the agreement was the distribution of costs and responsibilities for land management of Jews between KomZET and Agro-Joint. KomZET provided land and provided some of the financing for the project, and Agro-Joint provided its main financing.
During the 14 years of Agro-Joint’s work in the USSR (until its completion in 1938), new agreements were concluded with the Soviet government (January 31, 1927, February 15, 1929, March 22, 1933), clarifying issues of the organization work, financing, loans, etc.
M. Poltoranin in one of his television interviews stated that during the implementation of the Crimean program, the Joint organization allocated a loan (credit) tied to the implementation of the program. Under the terms of the loan, the Soviet Union received $900 thousand annually for 10 years at 5 percent interest. According to the same conditions, in the USSR, state bonds-shares were issued for the entire amount of the loan, against which almost the entire Crimean land was divided into shares (apparently, the situation that had arisen had no other development options and this was the only possible and optimal for that period of time solution).
200 people received shares in the Crimean land, including very famous Americans: Roosevelt, his wife Eleanor, Hoover, Marshall. In fact, the loan was taken out against promissory notes, which were backed by the Crimean territory.
The repayment of the loan debt with specified interest was supposed to begin in 1945 and end in 1954 - that’s why 1954 was a “critical” year for the Soviet leadership, both in terms of political and financial obligations - lenders had to give either money or collateral lands .
The project was illegal and dangerous - since 1921, the Crimean Autonomous Republic already existed with its own constitution. In addition, both the Crimean Tatars and other peoples of the peninsula had plans for the lands of the future autonomy. Thus, the resettlement of Jews there was fraught with the transformation of the peninsula into a hotbed of ethnic tension, which was confirmed by subsequent events.
The resettlement of Jews met fierce resistance from both the Crimean Tatar population and the leaders of the Crimean Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic, some of whom, in connection with this, were repressed.
In the rural areas of Crimea, two Jewish national districts were created - Freidorf and Larindorf, but the practical experience of resettling Jews there showed its inconsistency: the bulk of the settlers, faced with opposition from the local population and peasant labor that was unusual for them, returned to their native places. Of the Jews who remained in Crimea, the minority settled “on the ground” - the majority settled in cities (in 1930, out of 49,100 Crimean Jews, only 10,140 people lived in rural areas).
Taking into account these circumstances, in 1934 I.V. Stalin turned off Crimean project and made a “knight’s move”: in the east of the country, a special administrative-territorial entity was created for the resettlement of Jews - the Jewish Autonomous Region with its capital in Birobidzhan (so that “the sheep are safe and the wolves are fed”). Despite all the social cataclysms, the Jewish Autonomous Region still exists in this status, thereby continuing to solve the original problem.
But the “wolves”, unfortunately, remained hungry. The question of the need for the Soviet Union to implement the “Crimean California” project again surfaced during the Great Patriotic War and the Americans made us an offer that was impossible to refuse...

ALREADY "JEWISH SOVIET SOCIALIST REPUBLIC"

In 1942, to organize political and material support from wealthy American Jews in the USSR, the Jewish Anti-Fascist Committee (JAC) was created, headed by S. Mikhoels. The Committee performed its functions quite successfully, but already at the end of 1943, at the Tehran Conference, Roosevelt warned I.V. Stalin that further deliveries under Lend-Lease and the opening of the 2nd front are impossible without the implementation of the “Crimean California” project - this is the demand of the Jewish tycoons of the United States.
And already on February 21, 1944, having returned from the USA, members of the JAC delegation sent I.V. Stalin and V.M. Molotov so-called “Note on Crimea,” which suggested:
“...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..."
The “note” was left unanswered, but soon, on May 18, 1944, the Crimean Tatars were deported from Crimea, followed by the Armenians, Bulgarians and Greeks on June 26.
In his above-mentioned television interview, M. Poltoranin also demonstrated the Russian translation of D. Marshall’s secret letter to US Secretary of Commerce A. Harriman, written in 1945. The letter sets out the desire of the US President to let I.V. know. Stalin, so that he was ready to relocate the Black Sea Fleet to Odessa and the Caucasus coast, since: “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...”.
Judging by this letter, the issue was studied at the highest level and very serious people were dealing with it.
It is quite obvious that I.V. Stalin was a staunch opponent of the creation of the Jewish SSR. According to the recollections of Leonid Efremov, a member of the CPSU Central Committee, J.V. Stalin, at the last meeting of the Plenum of the CPSU Central Committee during his lifetime, criticized V.M. Molotov in a rather harsh form precisely because he had previously proposed to transfer Crimea to the Jews.
It seems that to divert attention, the USSR carried out some insignificant, demonstrative actions. Real measures to create the Jewish SSR were actually sabotaged - the empty Tatar villages began to quickly be populated by Belarusian, Russian and Ukrainian peasants from destroyed villages in the regions liberated from occupation.
Soon international situation changed - the United States from an ally became our adversary in the unfolding Cold War, which allowed I.V. Stalin to sharply reduce attention to their “wants”. In addition, things in the Middle East have turned out quite favorably for us. In Palestine, due to refugees from Europe, the Jewish population almost tripled in 1945-1946, reaching 600 thousand people. Thus, a “critical mass” was formed, which made it possible, instead of a Jewish republic in Crimea, to begin the struggle for the creation of a Jewish independent state in Palestine.
I.V. Stalin actively supported the long-standing Zionist idea of ​​​​creating a Jewish state in Palestine and in 1946 gave the command to supply weapons to the Jews who fought there against the Arabs and the British. On May 14, 1948, the Jewish State of Israel was proclaimed. The first country to recognize the Jewish state in in full, May 17 became the Soviet Union.
But, despite the newfound Palestine, the idea of ​​​​exploiting Crimea among Jews did not die. On September 3, 1948, Golda Meir, appointed ambassador to the USSR, arrived in Moscow. In two weeks, she organized two rallies in Moscow of 50 thousand people each - these were people from Leningrad, Moscow and even Siberia, who demanded to fulfill the promises made to America and give up Crimea.
Soon, on November 20, 1948, the Jewish Anti-Fascist Committee was dissolved and closed as a center of anti-Soviet propaganda - friendship with Israel ended. At the beginning of 1949, active members of the JAC were arrested and events known as the “fight against cosmopolitanism” began in the country. The events reached their culmination by 1953, but were curtailed immediately after the death of I.V. Stalin, whose death was more like a murder.
The deadline for repaying the debt to the Joint expired in 1954, but the Soviet Union, which was restoring the national economy destroyed by the war, could hardly complete all loan payments on time. A major scandal was brewing, undesirable for both the USSR and the Joint.

KHRUSHCHEV'S CLOSURE OF THE "CRIMEAN CALIFORNIA" PROJECT

N.S. Khrushchev, who came to power, “was in the know.” Using the 300th anniversary of the reunification of Ukraine with Russia as a cover, he transferred Crimea from the RSFSR to the jurisdiction of Ukraine. According to the agreement with the Joint, the transfer of Crimean lands to Jews from the RSFSR was provided for, and Ukraine did not bear any legal responsibility for the implementation of this agreement.
In addition, the Jews already had their own land in Birobidzhan and it seems very likely that all this was still Stalin’s “preparation.”
Thus, the government of the USSR acquired the formal right to close the question of the obligations of the Soviet Union to Jewish organizations in the United States regarding the creation of Jewish statehood in Crimea. And this right was significantly reinforced by the fact that the USSR had real nuclear weapons. On August 29, 1949, the first Soviet nuclear weapon was tested. atomic bomb, and on August 12, 1953 we tested the first hydrogen bomb…
For the peoples of the USSR in those years, this action was also an empty formality - there was a single country, inhabited by a single Soviet people. Then no one could have imagined that Ukraine would become a foreign state for Russia.
No one wanted all the details of the deal to be made public and, it seems, the interested American-Jewish side silently (“money loves silence”) postponed the resolution of this important issue for it until more favorable times.

FOODS FOR CONSIDERATION

The Americans never received the money, but it seems that, if necessary, there will always be “craftsmen” who can justify the penalty interest for non-payment of the loan, and inflate (taking them into account) the amount of debt at the moment to mind-boggling proportions.
The same “craftsmen” will be able to prove that the Crimean land divided into shares continues to be legally pledged by the current holders of shares and bonds issued in the 20s of the last century.
Meanwhile, the “Joint” case on the lands former USSR continues to live.
Since 1991, the “CIS Department” has been operating within the “Joint” - judging by the size of the allocated budget funds, the organization is most active in Ukraine.
As of 2006, Ukraine received $41,421,785 (second from Israel, which received $140,616,535).
Recently, quite a lot of information has appeared on some Internet sites. interesting information. For example, on the website of the Euro-Asian Jewish Congress on October 16, 2009, an article by Joseph Zisels “Restitution of Jewish property in Ukraine: posing the question” was published. This article discusses various aspects topics of former Jewish property in Ukraine and the problems of its restitution (i.e. returning the owners to their heirs or legal successors). An article “Zazubrina” appeared on the website of the NGO “Zubr” newspaper, which tells how in the second half of last 2013, an initiative group led by A. Rapoport decided to recreate OZET in an updated format and hold the Founding Conference of OZET in April - May 2014 in Crimea (Feodosia). The same website reports that on March 23, 2014, an appeal was announced from the Coordinator of OZET in Ukraine and Crimea, the Head of the Beit Shlan Council (center for religious Zionism) Meir Landau to allied organizations and Jewish communities of Crimea “to gather in the very near future for a conference on the issue restoration of the national and cultural autonomy of the Jewish people in Crimea."
On March 4, 2014, the website of the Association of Jewish Organizations and Communities of Ukraine published an “Address to the President Russian Federation V.V. Putin on behalf of the multinational people of Ukraine, on behalf of national minorities, on behalf of the Jewish community.” The document was signed by the previously mentioned Joseph Zissels, Chairman of the Association of Jewish Organizations and Communities (Vaada) of Ukraine, Executive Vice President of the Congress of National Communities of Ukraine, and 36 other equally respected “Ukrainians.”
In the specified “Appeal”:
a) it is argued that Russian-speaking residents of Ukraine are not subjected to humiliation and oppression, they civil rights are not limited and that the stability of Ukraine is under threat emanating from the Russian government, that is, from V.V. Putin;
b) there is a call “not to interfere in internal Ukrainian affairs, to withdraw Russian troops to their places of permanent deployment and to stop encouraging pro-Russian separatism.”
It should be noted that the actions to recreate OZET coincided in time with the main events of the political crisis in Ukraine and it is highly doubtful that this was a mere coincidence.
To confirm doubts, it is also necessary to note:
1. The highest involvement in political events in Ukraine by employees of the US Embassy in Kyiv and senior American leadership.
2. The highest activity shown in the current political events of Ukraine is the head of the United Jewish Community of Ukraine, the head of the European Council of Jewish Communities and the President of the European Jewish Union (EJU) Igor Kolomoisky (2nd in the ranking of Ukrainian rich people in 2013).
3. The highest activity shown by the European Union in matters of restitution in the countries of the former Soviet bloc. After joining the association with the EU, the same awaits Ukraine, whose legislation it will have to follow.
It looks like everything has been calculated, people are prepared, positioned and taking the necessary actions...
Of course, the authenticity of the second version can be confirmed or refuted only on the basis of relevant archival documents, if any (according to A. Karaulov, M. Poltoranin’s information is based on archival documents).
If the second version is reliable, political events in Ukraine, coupled with measures to revive OZET, can be interpreted as the implementation of a certain plan of preliminary measures for the seizure of the collateral lands of Crimea.
It seems that if Crimea were part of Ukraine, which joined the EU, its collateral lands would be seized by the United States through legal casuistry and restitution.
Experience shows that at present, with the help of brute military force, the United States can trample on any legal and moral norms and do whatever they see necessary with any NON-NUCLEAR power.
Crimea broke out into its historical nuclear missile homeland literally at the very last possible moment - a little more, and the Russian world could have lost it forever.
Judging by the rage that the entry of Crimea into Russia aroused in the United States, it is extremely doubtful that our good comrades - ordinary Jews, with whom we work, ride on trolleybuses and drink vodka in the kitchens, could have gained anything from the Americans confiscating the Crimean deposits lands.
Many events of the past show that ordinary Jews, as a rule, are used as auxiliary, expendable material in the big games of very big people who are least of all interested in someone's personal destinies.
It seems that the proposed measures to seize Crimean lands, first of all, should solve the global strategic task of organizing some form of absolute American presence on the territory of Crimea - up to the declaration of the peninsula as the 51st American state (like Alaska and Hawaii).
That's why, dear comrades, Crimea now needs to be defended to the last nuclear warhead.

After the return of Crimea to its home port - Russia, according to apt word President of the Russian Federation V.V. Putin, the government is taking a number of steps to integrate the Crimean economy into the Russian economy. But these steps are rather one-sided, and are carried out within the framework of the liberal economic program “Strategy 2020”, which the whole country lives by. I would like to remind you that the goals of this strategy, developed within the framework of the Higher School of Economics, in fact an agent of US influence, do not diverge from the goals of the Washington Consensus and are aimed at further development oligarchic capitalism in Russia. However, the United States recently recognized that over the last thirty years the United States itself has been developing as an oligarchy, so there is nothing strange in the recommendations for Russia. But for Crimea, such a development vector may mean suppression of large private businesses and the simultaneous creation of conditions for the transfer of agricultural production to monopoly conditions. It is impossible to approach Crimea with all-Russian categories, otherwise Russian policy may be rejected and civil protest may arise against the short-sighted (cosmopolitan) business of Russian oligarchs. There is another hidden danger - an attempt to turn Crimea into new California for the chosen ones.

This term “Crimean California” requires detailed explanation. Back in 1922, the idea of ​​a Crimean Autonomous Jewish Republic, put forward by A. Bragin, began to take shape, which grew the following year, 1923, into the Soviet Socialist Jewish Republic of Crimea. The project was financed by the American organization "Joint", which since 1929 officially represented the United States in the RSFSR (in the absence of diplomatic relations), with a budget of about 1.5 million dollars a year. “Joint” was created with the money of the German Ashkenazis F. Warburg and D. Schiff, an active participant in the overthrow of Tsar Nicholas II. To organize the residence of Jews in Crimea, 375 thousand hectares of land were allocated, mainly in the steppe regions, and land shares were issued, the owners of which were prominent American figures Roosevelt, Hoover, Rockefeller, Marshall, MacArthur and others. However, the 30 million dollars spent by the American side on the development of Jewish autonomy did not go to any use and did not solve the national issue in Crimea, but created another problem on the territory of the USSR. And already in 1934, after the creation of the Jewish Autonomous Region with its center in Birobidzhan, the Crimean settlements turned out to be irrelevant and in 1938 the Joint ceased its activities in the USSR. Thus was completed the first attempt to organize Crimean California for Jews.

It must be said that the reasons for the emergence of nationalist tensions in Crimea were due to the too active intervention of Chabad-Lubavitch in the creation of Jewish settlements. By this period of 1920 - 1930, Chabad, as one of the directions of Hasidism in Russia, gained a dominant position in our country. It should be noted that Hasidism, implicated in Kabbalah, inattention to the Torah, but reverence for the Talmud, the creation of the institution of tzaddikim and adherence to the idea of ​​​​moshiach, was in circulation in Poland, Moldova, Romania, Hungary, Belarus, Ukraine and was especially widespread in Galicia, Lvov, Transcarpathian Rus', Vitebsk and, no matter how paradoxical it may seem, in Tver. Shocking antics during prayer, rampant rioting on Shabbat, worship of tzaddikim and Kabbalah, made the Hasidim a contrast to the Spanish Sephardim and German Ashkenazim, who rejected the culture of the Hasidim, which was largely copied from those peoples among whom the Hasidim existed. However, such assimilation greatly helped in preserving the inviolability of Jewish canons for the Hasidim and especially Chabad, which allowed its representatives to eventually occupy high positions in the leadership of the USSR.

This practice of resettlement worried J.V. Stalin no less than the ambivalent position of the United States in financing exclusively Jewish settlements, subject to an agreement on the equal distribution of incoming funds among all ethnic groups of Crimea. The second attempt to create a “Crimean California” was made by the United States at the Tehran Conference of 1943, where, according to Milovan Djilas, IB Tito’s assistant, F. Roosevelt attempted to link Lend-Lease supplies with the restoration of the Jewish republic in Crimea. It must be said that by the time J. Schneerson arrived in the USA, a fairly influential Hasidic community had already been created in New York, which had its representatives not only among bankers, but also among politicians. Therefore, raising the issue of “Crimean California” by the US President does not look like a conspiracy theory. The response to this virtual ultimatum from the Soviet side was the delegation of S.M. Mikhoels (Vovsi) and I.S. Fefer, both of whom were members of Chabad-Lubavitch. It is curious that it was the Jewish Anti-Fascist Committee, which included Mikhoels, Fefer, Ehrenburg, Marshak, Eisenstein, Oistrakh, Gilels, Kapitsa and many others, that was entrusted with the honorable mission of harmonizing the Crimean Jewish Republic with prominent figures in politics, business and culture. By the way, an interesting fact is that on the JAC building next to the six-pointed star of Magen David there is the Masonic symbolism of one of the Sons of Zion lodges.

Before the trip, instructions to S.M. Mikhoels were given personally by V.M. Molotov (Scriabin), and the invitation to the trip was issued by A. Einstein and R. Oppenheimer. The delegation of Russian Jews was received at the highest level in the USA, Canada, Mexico and Great Britain. Why were the Anglo-Saxon countries so interested in “Crimean California”? The answer cannot be unambiguous due to the fact that too many issues of Jewish life and mythology converge in Crimea and Ukraine. This is the center of European Hasidism - the heirs of Khazaria, whose fragments have scattered throughout Europe, and the important geopolitical position of Crimea, which allows it to control the entire South of Russia and the Caucasus, as well as the Black Sea region. This is also an opportunity for comfortable living - waiting for resettlement to Israel, but after the moment when the King of Jerusalem begins to gather the “sons of the Covenant” to Jerusalem. By the way, the famous vineyards of Crimea were inherited from the first project of “Crimean California”. Precisely in view of the importance of Crimea for Jews around the world, there was no confrontation on this issue between Sephardim and Ashkenazim with Hasidic communities, and even with Chabad-Lubavitch. The result of the trip was S.M. Mikhoels’ appeal to the leadership of the USSR in February 1944.

The main provisions of this appeal included the need for compact accommodation of over 1.5 million Jews who lost their property as a result of the Great Patriotic War. Birobidzhan, being particularly remote from the central regions of Russia, was not even considered a place of residence Soviet Jews. Instead, it was planned to create a Jewish Soviet republic in Crimea to preserve a centuries-old cultural tradition or national cultural autonomy. Here the creators of the appeal, being euphoric from the American trip and the attention of top officials, missed a very important detail - I.V. Stalin was categorically against national and cultural autonomies and perfectly understood the danger of repeating “Crimean California” for the shaky national question in the USSR. But the authors did not want to pay attention to hints from the Kremlin, having become confident in the correctness of their choice after the lightning-fast decision to deport the Crimean Tatars in May 1944. Naive, the leadership of the GKO, the next month after the liberation of Crimea, understanding the danger of the fascist underground in Crimea, rid the country of collaborators and traitors who collaborated with the enemy and destroyed resistance to the fascists on the peninsula. In this context, the rehabilitation of the eviction of the Crimean Tatars by V.V. Putin looks strange, even taking into account the need to maintain the Kremlin’s neutrality towards the Mejlis. In fact, by his action, the head of state admitted the fallacy of the policy of I.V. Stalin, who committed not only an act of retaliation against traitors, but also protected the USSR from a possible fascist underground in the Crimea. From the point of view of Russian security, this is a short-sighted step by V.V. Putin, but from the point of view of the restoration of the Jewish Republic of Crimea, such actions fit into big picture third attempt to create a “Crimean California”.

Further events related to the appeal of S.M. Mikhoels acquire detective story, which has its continuation in our time. US representatives begin to actively interfere in the behind-the-scenes negotiations on the Jewish republic in Crimea; US Ambassador to the USSR W.A. Harriman puts forward various shapes the existence of “Crimean California” from complete independence as a national Jewish state in Crimea, to the withdrawal of the Black Sea Fleet from Sevastopol to Odessa. It is characteristic that the JAC supports these ideas of annexing a peninsula vital for the USSR, which has a zone of influence not only in the Black Sea region, but also in the entire Middle East and Turkey. JV Stalin could not agree to such steps, even at the cost of losing 10 billion dollars in US aid and future tension in relations. But neither S.M. Mikhoels, nor I.S. Fefer, nor many others even suspected that they were at the forefront of what political game they found themselves, and therefore in 1944 - 1945 they made plans to move to Crimea and were busy distributing positions in the future government Jewish Republic.

The denouement came at the Potsdam Conference in 1945, where US President G. Truman decided to link the issue of the Jewish Republic in Crimea with the nuclear bombing of Japan, thereby demonstrating to J.V. Stalin the importance of the political potential of Crimea for the United States. The leader could not forgive the arrogant American for this, and relations between the USSR and the USA entered the Cold War phase, while J.V. Stalin made the only right move in this situation - he supported the creation of the state of Israel. On November 29, 1947, the USSR advocated dividing Palestine into two states, thereby finally closing “Crimean California.” Before his speech at the Polytechnic Museum on December 28, 1947, S. M. Mikhoels uttered the phrase: “This is the beginning of the end,” and on January 12, 1948, under unclear circumstances, he was killed in Minsk. The JAC is being dissolved and its members are being repressed. Typically, the autopsy and conclusion of the death of S.M. Mikhoels was carried out by his cousin M.S. Vovsi, who a few years later became the head of the well-known business of “wrecker doctors.” The murder of S.M. Mikhoels is in vain attributed to J.V. Stalin, who convened an emergency meeting of the Politburo on the evening of January 12; stood behind “Crimean California”. A few months after the murder of S.M. Mikhoels, on May 15, 1948, the creation of the State of Israel was officially proclaimed, and on May 18, the USSR established diplomatic relations with the young Jewish state, which would bring instability and local wars to the Middle East for many decades , which I.V. Stalin warned about.

Returning to our days, we can observe a rather contradictory picture: Crimea, thanks to the lightning-fast actions of the President of the Russian Federation V.V. Putin, is again returning to its native shores, expelling Chabad-Lubavitch from its territory. Ukraine, having carried out a bourgeois revolution under the banners of Chabad and the intelligence services of Anglo-Saxon countries, is losing one region after another with amazing zeal, while not forgetting to create all the conditions for the entry of Russian troops into the territory of Ukraine. For what? The Jewish oligarch I. Kolomoisky, who built the Chabad community center “Menorah” in Dnepropetrovsk, is digging in in his region, intending to defend the Chabad enclave on the territory of Ukraine to the last bullet. For what? How can two contradictions be combined: 1. Creating conditions for the entry of Russian troops and 2. Ridiculous defense of Chabad values? The answer is simple, Rothschild’s B’nai B’rith and Rockefeller’s Sons of Zion no longer need the services of Chabad and its claims for the construction of the Third Temple, Finintern (in the apt expression of A. Devyatov) placed its bet on V.V. Putin and strong Russia, Israel's future ally in the fight against the Islamists of the Middle East, since there is no one else to rely on.

The USA, having bankrupted the Fed and created the appearance of stability in the financial market, no longer represent a Hasidic empire, which was cleverly used in their geopolitical games by the Sephardim and Ashkenazim of Europe, who were ready to simply throw waste material into the dustbin of history. Having transferred its interests to Southeast Asia, Finintern became concerned about protecting Israel and they could not find a better ally and defender other than Russia. That is why in the last five years the army rearmament program began, that is why Chabad’s attempts to organize a “swamp revolution” were repulsed and the main figures of American liberalism were incapacitated. That is why “Operation Crimea” was carried out and today the final stage of the liquidation of Chabad-Lubavitch in Ukraine and Russia is being prepared. Of course, the Hasidim can still respond with their hatred, but without money they are powerless, and there is no money, and there is no money in sight, the American and English treasuries are empty, and no one will allow Europe to support sectarians. That is why the third attempt to create a “Crimean California,” now under the leadership of V.V. Putin, began with the signing of the Crimean memorandum on March 18, 2014. At the same time, all the actors understand perfectly well that the life of Crimea without communication with the mainland - Ukraine is impossible, therefore Novorossia, and most likely the whole of Ukraine, will certainly fall under the onslaught, no, not of bayonets, but only of the possibility of using bayonets. And this must be done before May 25 of this year.

However, it must be understood that the third time “Crimean California” will most likely not come true, just like the previous two times, since it has no prospects for strengthening Russia’s military power and nationalizing its elite. The creation of a Jewish enclave in Crimea could turn against Russia itself, as national divisions will flare up with new, destructive force. It is clear that the Crimean Tatars are only a small part of the national instability of Crimea, which is very easy to either extinguish or use against Chabad, as was done in Chechnya. But a much greater danger is posed by the Chabad underground in Crimea and Russia, which today, through the creation of gambling zones and offshore companies in Crimea, are given the opportunity to participate in these profitable projects. How to separate Chabad members from Hasidim? Not unless they show themselves. Therefore, the attempt to create a third “Crimean California” poses a significant danger for the Russian aircraft carrier under the name Crimea. These attempts must be urgently stopped, as well as China’s construction of a deep-sea port in Crimea, the purpose of which is still not clear, since attempts to explain the “new Silk Road” look like baby talk, given that a new Khazaria has already been created in Hong Kong and repeat it no one is going to Crimea. Moreover, such duality may run counter to the plans of the Finintern and the Vatican associated with it, which poses a great danger to V.V. Putin. Crimea can be Russian and only Russian, there is no other way.

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 ​​getting 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 that 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 national movement of the Crimean Tatars, outraged by the settlement of their lands by alien Jews, was expanding on the peninsula. 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 of the Jewish Anti-Fascist Committee (JAC) on April 7, 1942. 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 should include Crimean peninsula, the entire Soviet Black Sea coast up to Abkhazia (including Sochi), as well as the 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 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. Zhdanova. 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 the intelligentsia of Moscow, Leningrad and a number of large 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.
