Summary[edit]

Description
English: [Menacing Jewish figure with skyline of New York in background with Statue of Liberty].
  • World War II Italian anti-Jewish, anti-Semitic, anti-American, anti-communist Fascist propaganda poster 32 x 23 cm
  • Satirical propaganda painting by Italian commercial illustrator Gino Boccasile (1901–1952) 1943, showing a racist caricature of a menacing Jewish man, with a red "communist star" on his chest, clenchig his fists, with the skyline of New York City and the Statue of Liberty in the background.
  • United States Holocaust Memorial Museum (USHMM):
Poster of a Jewish Bolshevik shaking his fists in defense of NYC: (...) Anti-Semitic, anti-American Nazi propaganda poster issued in German occupied Italy ca. 1943, with a cartoon of a Jewish Bolshevik shaking his fists at all comers with the New York City skyline behind him. The threat of the Jewish Bolshevik or Judeo-Communist conspiracy was a cornerstone of Nazi Party ideology. The 1917 Communist revolution that brought down the Russian Empire shocked the world. The prominence of Jews in the Bolshevik leadership fueled this imaginary merger of international conspiracies between the Communists and the Jews to destroy civilization and take over the world. In July 1943, Allied forces invaded Sicily. Mussolini was arrested by his own government and, in September, Italy unconditionally surrendered to the Allies. Germany then occupied north and central Italy, launching an offensive that confined Allied troops in the south for 20 months. The German SS launched systematic deportations of Jews and engaged in severe reprisals against Italian partisans and civilians. The Allies broke the stalemate in late spring 1944. The war ended with Germany's surrender in May 1945.
  • Antisemitism; Jewish Bolshevism; Anti-Americanism (Fascist critiques)
  • Poster issued by the Italian Social Republic (Italian: Repubblica Sociale Italiana, RSI), known as the National Republican State of Italy (Italian: Stato Nazionale Repubblicano d'Italia, SNRI) prior to December 1943 but more popularly known as the Republic of Salò (Italian: Repubblica di Salò), a German puppet state which was created during the later part of World War II, that existed from the beginning of the German occupation of Italy in September 1943 until the surrender of German troops in Italy in May 1945. The German occupation triggered widespread national resistance against it and the Italian Social Republic, leading to the Italian Civil War.
