If You Are An Irishman - I'm a Jew!

Did Lenin have something to Hide?

A day after Obama celebrated his Irish ancestry, it was revealed in documentary form for the first time to the Russians that Lenin seems to have had Jewish heritage. Thus, the International Herald Tribune (25th, May 2011) wrote: 'In a country long plagued by anti-Semitism, such heritage can be a significant taint, especially for the founder of the Soviet Union, who is still revered by many elderly Russians.'

It appears that among the dozens of documents on display at the State History Museum is a letter written by Lenin's eldest sister, Anna Ulyanova, saying that their maternal grandfather was a Ukrainian Jew who converted to Christianity to escape the Pale of Settlement and gain access to higher education.
