IMDB has yet a third spelling, based on a more literal transcription of the Cyrillic characters. But I fixed to the traditional American spelling. Thanks. Good catch.

Certainly it is propaganda, and very well done propaganda at that. But you could see the scene where the mob smothers the shouting man as a symbolic expression of the violent and overwhelming nature of Jewish vengeance to anyone who dares challenge them. BTW, I notice you have Potemkin spelled Potemkin in som places and Potempkin in others. Which is correct? I think Potemkin, but perhaps you have other information.
