Pg 6. All men are enemies. All animals are comrades.
Pg 7. Whatever goes upon two legs is an enemy and whatever goes upon for legs or has Wings, is a friend. [Which the Sheep is brainwashed] Until Napoleon changes them to say Pg 102. Four Legs good, two legs better! Four Legs good two, legs better! Four legs good, two legs better!”

Just; as Joseph Stalin did to Leon Trotsky in 1924 after Lenin’s death. Stalin orchestrated an alliance against Trotsky that included himself.

Two Cart Horses Note: Pg 13: Their most faithful disciples were the two cart horses, Boxer and Clover. These two had great difficulty in thinking anything out for themselves, but having once accepted the pigs as their teachers.
However, Clover realizes the Terror Napoleon has placed on the animals; Just as stated In Rev 13:1-18 Beast took over with evil
intensionsMatt 7:15
15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. [Clover realizes in Chapter TEN when she sees everything the rebellion against Napoleon is clearly evil just a man was PG 101 all the animals realized what Clover had seen] Pigs became men like.
Warning from GOD [b] The trumpet judgments 1st
In the book of REV John also writes the that 1/3 of the earth
doesn’t believe in GOD REV 8:7 The first
angel sounded, and there followed
hail and fire mingled with
blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green
grass was burnt up. [No Food means starvation]

REV 6:8 [Anti Christ Napoleon]
8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and
Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with
sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
Horrible death came to Boxer Pg 94. When Napoleon had no more use for him because he was weak.
The Tribulations— A state of pain or anguish that tests one's resiliency and character:[Boxer]Pg 2
Source: http://www.answers.com/topic/tribulation
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6..Boxer-who was a male Stallion1. Was enormous beast nearly eighteen hands high, Pg 2
2. Somewhat stupid appearance with a white strip down his nose Pg 2.
3. Not of First rate intelligence—Example Pg 24 could not get beyond the letter D. He would only trace out A. B. C. D. Pg 25. On several Occasions he did learn E. F. G. H and then to discover he forgotten A. B. C. D. Finally he was content with the first four letters.
His failure to read cost him his life and he was trusting of his government Pg 93-95 when he was sent to the
Knackery [Butcher to become dog food]
4. He was universally respected for his steadiness of Character and tremendous work.
5. More on Boxer Pg 21 was the admiration of everybody. He had been a hard worker even in Jones’s time, Napoleon leaned hard on him.
Boxer-Character is a reminder of Sampson Judges: 13:24 birth of Sampson [Strength]; when his strength was gone Boxer was put to Death. As Sampson loses his strength he was enslaved and lost his site by the Philistines Judges 16:21
Chapter Nine Boxer is Slaughter Pg 94 & 95 he was no longer useful to Napoleon, he no longer had the strengthen and he was considered a waste
Chapter Ten Forgotten Pg 97. [Part of the Rebellion] long dead Exodus 1:8 Now there arose up a new King over Egypt which knew not Joseph [The memory of Mr. Jones is long gone]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6..Clover pg 2 was stout motherly mare approaching middle life, which had never quite got her figure back after her fourth foal. [Mare]--She was a
motherly and heart warming type of animal
Pg 24 Clover learnt the whole Alphabet but could not put words together
Chapter Ten Pg 97 She is old and remembers the rebellion against man; deep in heart she is heartbroken due to Napoleon’s controlling ways.
Just as God I Samuel 15:35: Lord repented that he had made Saul King over Israel. [God was sorry he made Saul King of his people because he turned out evil just as Napoleon did to the animals on the farm]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. Muriel pg 2. The white goat who is ignorant she doesn’t know how to read. She just recites from memory which doesn’t serve the animals well. Pg 24 Muriel could read somewhat better than the dogs
Pg 19. To learn the Commandments by heart
However, she adds to Commandments for example: [only memorization]
Pg 18. 4. No animal shall sleep in a bed. She justifies why the pigs sleep in the bed by stating the Commandment as this;
Pg 52. Muriel She said [gravely] Thesaurus [badly] now read me the Fourth Commandment does it not say something about never sleeping in a bed?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
8. Benjamin Pg 2 the Donkey was the oldest animal on the farm, and the worst tempered. He seldom talked, and when he did, it was usually to make some cynical remark. [Friends with Boxer Pg 3]
Pg 22 [Example of Cynical remark] Donkeys live a long time. None of you has ever seen a dead donkey. And the others had to be content with is cryptic answer.
Pg 24 Benjamin could read as well as any pig, but never exercised his faculty. So far as he knew , he said there was nothing worth reading
Pg 103 For once Benjamin consented to break his rule, and he read out to her what was written on the wall. There was nothing there now except a single Commandment. It ran:
ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUAL
BUT SOME ANUMALS ARE MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS
Meaning the Pigs are the Elite.
Benjamin becomes alive when he realizes he is losing his friend Boxer the Knackery Pg 92 & Pg 93
When Napoleon send him to his demise.
Chapter Ten Pg 97
Only Benjamin was much the same only a little more, greyer about the muzzle and since Boxer’s death, more morose [Miserable] and taciturn [Distant] than ever.
With Some difficulty Muriel spelt out.
‘It says, “No animal shall sleep in a bed with Sheets,” ‘she announced finally!
This moment please Squealer because Muriel placed this matter in its proper perspective right into Napoleon’s hands.
However; the one time Muriel had it right Pg 92 & 93 Spelled in silence the deadly word Knacker
Chapter Ten Muriel was Dead Pg 97
Exodus 1:8 Now there arose up a new King over Egypt which knew not Joseph [The memory of Mr. Jones is long gone]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
8...Mollie white Mare Pg 3. At least moment Mollie the foolish pretty white mare that drew Mr. Jones Trap. However, Mollie leaves in Chapter 5. She returns to man for the kinds that were bestowed to her. She escapes Napoleon’s wickedness. Pg 36.
Three days later Mollie disappeared. For some weeks nothing was known of her whereabouts, then the pigeons reported that they had seen her on the other side of the Willingdon. She was between the shafts of a smart dog cart red and black,which standing outside a public house. A fat red faced in check breeches and gaiters, who looked like a publican, was stroking her nose and feeding her sugar. Her coat was newly clipped and she wore a scarlet ribbon round her forelock. She appeared to be enjoying herself, so the pigeons said. NONE of the animals ever mentioned Mollie again Pg 36.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9...Cat PG 3—She didn’t listen to a word major was saying. The Cat also didn’t conform to Napoleon ways either Pg 22 Cat could never be found
Vanish for hours only to reappear for meal time only
She made excellent excuses
10. Moses Pg 3[was not at the meeting Major held]
Genesis 8:7 And Sent forth of raven, which went forth to and fro, until the waters were dried up from off the earth.
The animals [Napoleon] did not trust the Raven. Just as Noah didn’t trust the Raven because it failed to return and that is why Noah sent the Dove Genesis 8:8
Also the animals hated Moses Pg 13 He told tales and did no work:
I say this in the end the Animal admired the Moses because he was free of Napoleon because he had the wings of flight to escape Napoleon Rules.
Examples of Mistrust Pg 13 Moses who was Mr. Jones’s especial pet, was a spy and a tale-bearer but he was also clever talker.
Chapter 9 Pg 89 Moses the Raven suddenly reappeared on the farm after an absence of several years. He tells them of Sugar Candy Mountain--Heaven
Moses Chapter Ten Pg 97 Remembers the Rebellion against Mr. Jones
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
11. Rats and Rabbits Pg 7. Comrades, he said here is a point that must be settled. The Wild creatures, such as rats and Rabbits are they our friends or are they our enemies? Let us put it to the Vote, I propose this question to the meeting: Are rats Comrades?
The vote was taken at once, and it was agreed by an overwhelming majority that rats were comrades.
Genesis 6:20: every creeping thing of the earth after his kind.
There were only four dissentients, the three dogs and cat, which were afterwards discovered to have voted both sides.
Dissenting from the opinion of the majority [Often used in American Law]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
12. Black Minorca Chicken - Baby: top of the head and back is black. Wing tips, chest and abdomen are white. Mature: white skin. Plumage is all black. Comb bright red, white earlobes, shanks and toes dark slate. Lays a white egg. Weight: Female 4.5 lbs. Male 5.5 lbs. Pg 58
For the first time since the expulsion of Jones there was something resembling a rebellion. Led by three young Black Minorca pullets, the hens made a determined effort to thwart Napoleon’s wishes. Their method was to fly up to the rafters and there lay their eggs, which smashed to pieces on the floor. Pg. 59
13. Pigeons—Messengers for Napoleon Pg 28 sent out flights of pigeons whose instructions were to mingle with the animals on neighboring farms, tell them the story of the REBELLION
14. Sheep—Napoleon successful in controlling the sheep pg 37 Four Leg Good! Two Leg Bad. gullible Pg 102 Four Legs good. Two Legs are Better!
15. Three Cows start the rebellion pg 14.
The Pigs of the Farm----------Superior Breed over other animals the Educated Elite
Two Young Boars descendents of Major Page 11
____________________________________________________________________
Children of Major
Pre-eminent among the pigs were
two young boars named snowball and Napoleon, whom Mr. Jones was breeding up for Sale.
Snowball—was more vivacious pig than Napoleon, quicker in speech and more inventive, but was not considered to have the same depth of character Pg 11.
Able Genesis 4:2/4:4
Orwell’s model this character after Leon Trotsky[He was part of the Rebellion that over threw the government of the useless Tsar Nicholas II the Monarch of Russia October 1917. he is also the Able: Genesis 4:2 Just like Cain Slaughter Able Genesis 4:8 when Cain Slew his brother.
In 1924 Stalin has Leon Trotsky was oust like Snowball Pg 41[Page 26 Nine Puppies] At this was a terrible baying sound outside, and nine enormous dogs wearing brass-studded collars came bounding into the barn. They dashed straight for Snowball, who only sprang from his place just in time to escape their snapping Jaws.
----After he escapes from the Clutches of the Dogs he was never seen or heard from again. However, every time something goes wrong and Napoleon’s hysteria blames everything on Napoleon and even accuses the animals as spies for Snowball and has them slaughtered for no reason pg 49, 50, 51, 54, 58, 59.
Napoleon-was large rather fierce looking Berkshire boar, the only Berkshire on the farm, not much of a talker, but with a reputation for getting his own way. Pg 11.
Is the main dictator on the animal farm he is the son of Major. However, just like Stalin family didn’t matter to Stalin for example:
Pg 63 Napoleon stood sternly surveying his audience then he uttered a highly-pitched whimper. Immediately the dogs bounded forward, seized four pigs by the ear and dragged them, squealing with pain and terror, to Napoleon’s feet. [Since Napoleon is the only Boar he has no feelings for family just as Joseph Stalin]
Stalin’s wife [Family] She married
Joseph Stalin in 1906 and gave him a son,
Yakov Dzhugashvili. She died of typhus in 1907. Much of her family (including her sister Mariko and brother Alexander) would later be executed during her husband's
Great Terror. Sources:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ekaterina_SvanidzeIncluding his son
Yakov Dzhugashvili.
Yakov and his father Stalin never got along. Allegedly once Stalin referred to Yakov as a "mere cobbler." He ran immediately to his bedroom. It turned out that the girl was Yakov's Jewish fiancée, and when they told Stalin of their engagement he became enraged.
Dzhugashvili served as an artillery officer in the
Red Army and was captured in the early stages of the German invasion of USSR at the
Battle of Smolensk. The Germans later offered to exchange Yakov for
Friedrich Paulus, the German Field Marshal captured by the Soviets after the
Battle of Stalingrad, but
Stalin turned the offer down, allegedly saying "I do not change the soldier for the marshal"; others credit him with saying "I have no son," to this offer. Sources: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yakov_DzhugashviliStalin would later state that other than his mother she may have been the only person he truly loved. At her funeral he told a friend that "with her died any human feeling in him."
Pg 63 & 64 Napoleon unleashed terror among the animals as he takes control of the Animal Farm.
During the late 1930s, Stalin launched the
Great Purge (also known as the "Great Terror"), a campaign to purge
the Communist Party of people accused of corruption or treachery; he extended it to
the military and other sectors of Soviet society. Targets were often executed, imprisoned in
Gulag labor camps or exiled. In the years following, millions of
ethnic minorities were also
deported.
[3][4]Pg 67 Napoleon Paranoid is evident Just like Stalin
Source:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Stalin Since Napoleon is the only Boar on the Farm he is the father of the pigs it so states he sired the pig population on page 86, Napoleon was the only boar on the farm, it was possible to guess at their parentage.
Napoleon is clearly atheist he has no regards for the Lord God. At first after the Rebellion on pg 22 On Sundays there was no work.---Chapter 2
Military bully he was always referred as ‘Our Leader Comrade Napoleon,”—Father of all Animals as Abraham is referred as father of the three religions
He is widely regarded as the patriarch of
1. Christians
2. Jews
3. Islamic-Muslims
Sources:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AbrahamJudaism, Christianity and Islam are sometimes referred to as the "
Abrahamic religions"
The Beginning of Wiping out traditions by destroying the Freedoms and taking away any traces of religion.
That all changed in Chapter Five
1. Sunday-Morning Meetings would come to an end Pg 42.
2. The animals would still assemble on Sunday Mornings to salute the flag, sing Beast of England, and receive their orders for the week but there would be no more debates Pg 42.
Chapter Six
3. Sundays was now a work day Pg 46. Napoleon said this was voluntary. However, he added the animals who didn’t work would only get have the rations. So he was bullying his constituents [Comrades] into working.
Napoleon is a believer in a one party system—His word was law when he ran Snowball off Pg 42. Napoleon erases any type of republic and democracy through scared tactic’s and Squealer and the nine puppies that were taken from the mothers were brainwashed and trained by Napoleon appeared Pg 44.
Exodus 20:8-10
8 Remember the
sabbath day, to keep it holy.
9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
10 But the seventh day is the
sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work,
Chapter Seven
4. Napoleon abolishes the National Anthem Pg 67. Just Mr. Jones silence them in chapter 1 Pg 9 & 10 When Mr. Jones fires his weapon to silence the animals
Napoleon clearly breaks all Seven of the Commandments
Chapter Two Pg 18
THE SEVEN COMMANDMENTS
1. Whatever goes upon two legs is an enemy
Changed pg 101 when the pigs are now walking on their hind legs. Squealer trained the gullibly Sheep from Saying this: Pg 102 Four Legs good, Two Legs Better! Four legs good, two legs better! Ect
When Major clearly stated this pg 7 Whatever goes up TWO LEGS is an ENEMY All habits of men are evil. [Napoleon against his father] proves the words of Major Two Legs is an Enemy.
Exodus 20:3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me. [Major declares himself god like]
2. Whatever goes upon four legs, or has wings is friend
Exodus 20: 16
16 Thou shalt not bear false
witness against thy neighbour.
Pg 102 Two Legs are better! That Squealer had the sheep proclaim
Pg 64, 66 & 67 When Napoleon paranoid minds gets to him. False confessions are made especially
Pg 64 The four pigs waited trembling with guilt written on every line of their countenances. Napoleon now called upon them to confess their crimes.
Napoleon had the dogs kill them [Which breaks Commandment 6]
3. No Animal Shall Wear Clothes.
Genesis 2:25
25 And they were both
naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
Pg 15 Snowball—Ribbons he should be considered as clothes, which are the mark of a human being. All animals should no naked.
Genesis 3:7
7 And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were
naked; and they sewed
fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.
Pg 103. The pigs violate Commandment #3 Napoleon was seen strolling in the farmhouse garden with a pipe in his mouth—no, not even when the pigs took Mr. Jones clothes out of the wardrobes and put them on.
Chapter 10 Pg 97 Described as a mature bore of twenty-four Stone.
One other thing just as Napoleon blames every failed problem was blamed on Snowball who was clearly out of the picture. Just a Cain lied to God about his brother Genesis 4:5 why am I brother’s Keeper?
4. No animal Shall Sleep in a bed
Muriel
However, she adds to Commandments for example: [only memorization]
Pg 18. 4. No animal shall sleep in a bed. She justifies why the pigs sleep in the bed by stating the Commandment as this;
Pg 52. Muriel She said [gravely] Thesaurus [badly] now read me the Fourth Commandment does it not say something about never sleeping in a bed?
With Some difficulty Muriel spelt out.
‘It says, “No animal shall sleep in a bed with Sheets,” ‘she announced finally!
This moment please Squealer because Muriel placed this matter in its proper perspective right into Napoleon’s hands.
5. No animal Shall drink Alcohol
Pg 83 They thought the fifth Commandment was No Animal shall drink alcohol,’ but there were two words that they had forgotten. Actually the Commandment read: No animal shall drinl alcohol to excess.’
Again with Muriel bad memorization she added the excess She told them they had remembered this one as wrong too.
Squealer Pg 12 He is Napoleon right hand pig. He is shrewd
6. No animal shall kill any other animal
Exodus 20:13
13 Thou shalt not kill.
Since Napoleon is clearly an atheist violates this law with is paranoid of being overthrown by his constituents He starts to execute Pg 64 & 65 The three hens who had been the ring leaders in the attempted rebellion over the eggs now came forward and stated that Snowball had appeared to them in a dream and incited them to disobey Napoleon’s orders. They, too, were slaughtered.
Part of Commandment 2 or has wings, is a friend [Fowl] Slaughtered by Napoleon.
7. All animals are equal
Pg 103. For once Benjamin consented to break his rule, and he read out to her what was written on the wall. There was nothing there now except a single Commandment. It ran:
ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUAL
BUT SOME ANiMALS ARE MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS
Meaning the Pigs are the Elite.
As Benjamin clearly read the Commandment, and only one appears.
Napoleon clearly to over the Animal Farm. He also didn’t appreciate the title Animal Farm. He reinstated the former name THE MANOR FARM pg 107.
Squealer Pg 12: He could turn black and white. He was sly, shrewd, liar and forceful. He was Napoleon’s spokes pig. [Right] Was a small Fat pig with very round cheeks, with twinkling eyes, nimble movements, and a shrill voice. He was a brilliant talker, and when he was arguing some difficult point he had a way of skipping from side to side and whisking his tail which somehow very persuasive. The others said of Squealer that he could turn black into white. Pg 12
He emphasized that Pg 43 Bravery is not enough and Loyalty and obedience are more important
These three had elaborated Old Major’s teachings into a complete system of thought, to which they gave the name of Animalism= Communism
Pg 17 The pigs now revealed that during the past three months they had taught themselves to read and write from old spelling book which belong to Mr. Jones Children.
Animalism- animalism - preoccupation with satisfaction of physical drives and appetites
Source:
http://www.thefreedictionary.com/animalismNapoleon is hungry for power pg 45 when Squealer explains his position Squealer, was something called tactics. He repeated a number of times. “Tactic, comrades, tactics! Skippinground and whisking his tail with a merry laugh. The animals were not certain what the word meant, but Squealer spoke so persuasively, and the three dogs whom happened to be with him growled so threateningly, that they accepted his explanation without further question.
Squealer threaten the animals with the use of Force. There was no back talk.
Chapter Ten Pg 97 Squealer was so fat that he could with difficulty see out of his eyes.

Pg 71 The General Feeling on the Farm was well expressed in a poem titled ‘Comrade Napoleon’, which was composed by Minimus
Pg 72. Also a Portrait of Napoleon—Worshiping a False God
Exodus 20:3-4
3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
Pinked Eyed Pg 72 Napoleon’s food taster.
Fresh precautions for Napoleon’s safety were taken. Four dogs guarded his bed at night , one at each corner, and a young Pig named Pink eye was given the task of tasting all his food before he ate it, lest it should be poisoned.
