A Special Russian Truth
How Soviet Antisemitic Propaganda Lives Today
A Special Russian Truth uncovers how a calculated Soviet disinformation campaign—engineered decades ago by the KGB to demonize Israeli statehood and sow division in the United States—planted the seeds of today’s anti-Israel rhetoric. Through first-person testimony and rigorous historical analysis, this eye-opening short film reveals the antisemitic roots behind familiar tropes, equipping viewers to distinguish propaganda from legitimate critique in the context of today’s conflicts. Featuring first-person testimony from respected historians, academicians, and peace activists from diverse religious and cultural backgrounds, this short film provides viewers with concrete tools to recognize professionally crafted antisemitic tropes and understand their historical context, distinct from legitimate political critique.

“A Special Russian Truth illuminates the largely overlooked roots of modern day antizionism, clearly tracing them to Soviet propaganda. It's impossible to educate about the malignance of antizionism without understanding its dark evolution."
"A Special Russian Truth is a piece of the Jewish story that is seldom told, one that is rarely appreciated for its impact on the present social and political environment. This movie is a terrific tool to bridge understanding regarding political and social rhetoric for both Jews and non-Jews, especially young adults. This is an important resource for dialoguing, and a terrific tool to achieve mutual understanding."
“A Special Russian Truth is a timely and insightful exploration of the roots of antisemitism today. This should be required viewing for everyone, particularly students, as part of the ongoing societal effort to break through false narratives."
"This film is a vital tool in addressing global antisemitsm and anti-Zionism. It exposes the Soviet propaganda that still shapes much of today’s discourse, making it essential viewing for students everywhere."
