Trotsky as a Freemason
Mr Leiba Bronstein became a freemason in 1897 and later a high-ranking
Illuminatus through his friend Alexander Parvus. He also maintained
contacts with B'nai B'rith, a Jewish Masonic order, which had previously
aided Jewish "revolutionaries" in Russia. A man named Jacob Schiff,
chairman of the banking house Kuhn, Loeb & Co. and a minion of the
Rothschilds, took care of the contacts between the "revolutionary
movement in Russia" and B'nai B'rith. (Gerald B. Winrod, "Adam Weis-
haupt - A Human Devil", p. 47.)
Leiba Bronstein began to study freemasonry and the history of the
secret societies seriously in 1898, and continued these studies during the
two years he spent in prison in Odessa. He made notes amounting to over
1000 pages. "Internationaler Freimaurer-Lexikon" (Vienna/Munich, 1932,
p. 204) reluctantly admits that Leiba Bronstein-Trotsky came to Bolshe-
vism through this study of freemasonry.
As a People's Commissary for Military Affairs, Trotsky introduced the
pentagram - the five-pointed star - as the symbol of the Red Army. The
Cabbalists had taken over this symbol of black magic from the witches in
ancient Chaldea.
By the aid of Alexander Parvus, Trotsky reached the conclusion that the
true purpose of freemasonry was to eliminate the national states and their
cultures and to introduce a Judaised world state. This is also stated in "The
Secret Initiation into the 33rd Degree": "Freemasonry is nothing more and
nothing less than revolution in action; continuous conspiracy."
Bronstein became a convinced internationalist who, by the agency of
Parvus' care, learned that the Jewish people were their own collective
Messiah and would reach dominion over all peoples through the mixing of
the other races and elimination of national boundaries. An international
republic was to be created, where the Jews would be the ruling element,
since no others would be able to understand and control the masses.
Leiba Bronstein became a member of the French Masonic lodge Art et
Travail, to which Lenin also belonged, but also joined B'nai B'rith,
