Communism In Poland
This page is a work-in-progress; more names/facts will
be added later.
If you thought that Jews only dominated communism in
the Soviet Union, you would be wrong. In fact, it is possible that Poland's
communist party contained a higher percentage of Jews than the Soviet communist
machine because of Poland's large Jewish population [pre-WWII Poland had the
largest Jewish population in Europe: over 3
million].

information, from a different source:
Communism in Poland, early
years:
The earliest Polish communist movement was founded in 1893 by two
Jews, Rosa Luxemburg and Leo Jogiches, forming the Social Democratic Party of
Poland. Since it was an illegal political entity, the party's newspaper, Sprawa
Robotnicza [Workers' Cause] was published in France.
