Leon Trotsky ex Wiki
QUOTE
Leon Trotsky (7 November
[O.S.
26 October] 1879 – 21 August 1940), born
Lev Davidovich Bronstein was a
Bolshevik
revolutionary and
Marxist
theorist.
He was one of the leaders of the Russian October Revolution, second only to Vladimir Lenin. During the early days of the Soviet Union, he served first as People's Commissar for Foreign Affairs and later as the founder and commander of the Red Army and People's Commissar of War. He was also among the first members of the Politburo.
After leading a failed struggle of the Left Opposition against the policies and rise of Joseph Stalin in the 1920s and the increasing role of bureaucracy in the Soviet Union, Trotsky was expelled from the Communist Party and deported from the Soviet Union. An early advocate of Red Army intervention against European fascism, Trotsky also opposed Stalin's peace agreements with Adolf Hitler in the 1930s.
As the head of the
Fourth International, Trotsky continued in exile to oppose the Stalinist
bureaucracy in the Soviet Union, and was eventually assassinated in
Mexico, by
Ramón Mercader, a Soviet agent. Trotsky's ideas form the basis of
Trotskyism, a major school of Marxist thought that is opposed to the
theories of
Stalinism.
He was one of the few Soviet political figures who was never
rehabilitated by the
Gorbachev administration.

Trotsky, Partner In Revolution
QUOTE
Leon Trotsky, partner in revolution
Trotsky was always more worldly
and reflective than Lenin, and warned early on that the Bolsheviks
were on their way to dictatorship, yet to his ignominious end in
1940, he was unable to acknowledge the basic fault of the revolution
he was instrumental in creating.
“Nothing great has been accomplished in history without fanaticism.” − Leon Trotsky.
In choosing that striking statement as the epigraph of his
book, Joshua Rubenstein, author of a number of works on Soviet history, and
northeastern regional director of Amnesty International U.S.A., immediately
establishes a theme that dominates this succinct, densely packed political
biography of Leon Trotsky. Published in Yale University Press’s “Jewish Lives”
series, Rubenstein’s study focuses on the tragic paradox of Trotsky’s life: that
even the combination of his keen intellectual grasp of politics and culture,
catholic interests and tastes and sympathy for the persecuted and downtrodden
failed to prevent this once anti-autocrat idealist from himself founding a
despotic regime and becoming an enduring apologist for repression in the service
of dogma.

Lord Acton told us that power corrupts; that absolute power
corrupts absolutely. Trotters proves it.

MI5
Captured Trotsky On His Way To Revolt In Russia
QUOTE
Leon Trotsky, the creator of
the Red Army, was detained on the orders of MI5 in a move which
could have prevented him from playing any part in the Russian
revolution and its aftermath,............. Papers made available at the
Public Record Office show how MI5, and the French and Spanish
security services, monitored Trotsky's movement in the months
leading to the revolution in February 1917 which overthrew the
Tsarist regime.
The previous autumn Trotsky was expelled from France after his Paris paper, Nashe Slovo (Our Word) was suppressed on the grounds it was subversive and anti-war. He set off for Madrid, "surrounded by spies" who, he noted, regarded him as a "dangerous terrorist agitator". [ He "was" - "Editor" The so called "Grauniad" wants the peasants to think it knows better. ]. In Madrid he was immediately arrested, jailed, and taken to Cadiz where he was told he was going to be put on a boat to Havana. But after angry protests, Trotsky was allowed to remain a few more days and sail, instead, to New York........
MI5 continued to monitor Trotsky's activities. In a telegram from New York to London, dated March 22, 1917, an MI5 agent warned: "An important movement has been started here among Socialists, with a view to getting back Revolutionary Socialists into Russia ... with [the] object of establishing a Republic and initiating Peace movement; also of promoting Socialistic Revolutions in other countries, including the United States". The "main leader", the telegram noted, "is Trotsky", who was planning to leave the US for Russia. A few days later, the MI5 agent dispatched a message to London saying Trotsky had set sail "with $10,000 subscribed by Socialists and Germans" on the way to Petrograd, now St Petersburg.
The agent ordered the ship to
be detained when it stopped at Halifax in Canada. Trotsky was
arrested with five Russian comrades. There he could have
remained, had it not been for the intervention of the Secret
Intelligence Service, MI6.

Permanent Revolution
Trotters was a big fan of permarev for reasons known unto him. To be fair it is
being inflicted on us by the followers of
Antonio Gramsci
Killing
Trotsky
Was Stalin's rather absurd top priority. He succeeded.
QUOTE
Though she had worked indirectly as a Stalinist agent for years via the
directives of the Comintern, Caridad Mercader was formally indoctrinated into
the NKVD by Leonid Eitingon who operated in Spain under the alias of General
Kotov. Caridad had a long running affair with Eitingon, who not only recruited
her, but her son Ramon as well. Eitingon trained Mercader in the ways of
sabotage and Guerrilla warfare and in 1937, took him to Moscow for more
specialized training in dissembling and assassination.
Eitingon was the mastermind behind the Trotsky assassination, directing it via
the Soviet consulate in New York. To get close to Trotsky, it was decided that
Mercader would have to become romantically involved with someone who had access
to Trotsky's inner sanctum. The NKVD chose Sylvia Ageloff, a Brooklyn social
worker, Trotskyite, and confidante of Trotsky himself. It was assumed that
Ageloff would be attending a secret conference of Trotsky's Fourth
International (about which the NKVD had been tipped off) in France in the summer
of 1938. The NKVD used Ruby Weil, a wavering Trotskyite and acquaintance of Ageloff, to travel to Europe with Ageloff and set her up with Mercader via an
agent by the name of Gertrude.....

Iosif Romualdovich Grigulevich (Иосиф
Ромуальдович Григулевич) (May 5, 1913 – June 2, 1988) was one of the most
remarkable
Soviet
illegal operatives (a
spy
acting without legitimate
diplomatic cover) during the 1930s and 1940s, when he took a leading role in
assassinating leftists who were not loyal to
Joseph Stalin. Under a false identity as Teodoro B. Castro, a wealthy
Costa Rican
expatriate living in
Rome, Grigulevich served as the
ambassador
of the Republic of Costa Rica to both
Italy and
Yugoslavia
(1952–1954). His mission to assassinate Yugoslav leader
Josip Broz Tito was aborted due to Stalin's death, after which Grigulevich
settled in Moscow,
where he worked as an expert on the
history of Latin America and on the
Roman Catholic Church. He was a member of
Soviet Academy of Sciences, served as editor in chief of the magazine,
Obshchestvennye nauki i sovremennost ("Social Sciences Today") and published
many books and articles about
Latin
American subjects.

He was also tasked to kill Tito in
Yugoslavia.
