Journalist & Zionist Dr.
Samuel M. Melamed (1884 - 1938) wrote in
1922:
The concrete and powerful figure is Leon Trotsky, and next to St Paul, Leon Trotsky is the greatest Jewish figure in Jewish diaspora history. Just as St Paul organised one of the greatest revolutions in the world's history and the Sauls paid for it, so Leon Trotsky is now organising one of the greatest revolutions in history and the Braunsteins will have to pay for it. This is our tragedy. For the deeds and misdeeds of Leon Trotsky, the next fifty Jewish generations will suffer martyrdom and pain.
