Original Note:
Vladamir Lenin was not Jewish. He had a Jewish grandfather who converted to Christianity and grew up connected to the Russian Orthodox Church. Trotsky and Marx were ethnically Jewish but in no way religiously so (Marx's family converted to Christianity before his birth). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vladimir_Lenin#Early_life https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl_Marx#Personal_life https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leon_Trotsky
