It s not really for us to decide what is a conspiracy theory but indeed the article rather confusingly mixes conspiracy claims and factual information about Jewish leaders in the Bolshevik movement There was a recent newspiece a quote by Putin Times of Israel Putin First Soviet government was mostly Jewish Apparently some people feel such quote is conspiracist whereas others say it s just a statement of a statistical fact In any case the option is 1 the article shouldn t imply any notion of Jewish participation in the early communist movement is a conspiracy theory However I m not sure if that general topic Jews in the bolshevik movement should be covered in detail in this article
