Joltin' Joe Stalin
dailymail.co.uk — The brutal Soviet dictator Josef Stalin reflected that he would have liked to deport the entire Ukrainian nation, but 20 million were too many to move even for him. He starved them instead.

Millions starved as Soviet troops and secret policemen raided their villages, stole the harvest and all the food in villagers' homes.
They dropped dead in the streets, lay dying and rotting in their houses, and some women became so desperate for food that they ate their own children.
If they managed to fend off starvation, they were deported and shot in their hundreds of thousands.
We made the world safe for Stalin. - FrankHope, on 07/26/2008, -0/+5Of course we never hear about the Holodomer unlike the Holocaust which is rammed down our throats 24/7. Could it be because the Cheka/OGPU/NKVD (later known as the KGB) which enforced the famine was dominated by Jews? But when you see the way that Zionists treat the Palestinians in the Occupied Territories, it is not that hard to imagine.
From "Remembering Ukraine's Unknown Holocaust" by Eric Margolis:

The precise number of Ukrainians murdered by Stalin’s custom-made famine and Cheka firing squads remains unknown to this day. KGB’s archives, and recent work by Russian historians, shows at least 7 million Ukrainians died. Ukrainian historians put the figure at 9 million, or higher. Twenty-five percent of Ukraine’s population was exterminated.
Kaganovitch, and many senior OGPU officers( later, NKVD) were Jewish. The predominance of Jews among Bolshevik leaders, and the frightful crimes and cruelty inflicted by Stalin’s Cheka on Ukraine, the Baltic, and Poland, led the victims of Red Terror to blame the Jewish people for both communism and their suffering.
None of the Soviet mass murderers who committed genocide were ever brought to justice. ‘Soviet Eichmann’ Lazar Kaganovitch died peacefully in Moscow a few years ago, still wearing his Order of the Soviet Union, and enjoying a generous state pension.- Conspiracy20, on 07/26/2008, -0/+2Great post, Frank!
- FrankHope, on 07/26/2008, -0/+2Thanks. It's part of our mythology that the Holocaust was the greatest crime ever committed against humanity. This is what our school children are being taught, and this is what Hollywood wants us to believe. I'm not trying to be anti-Semitic. I just think that we need to be truthful about history. Much of the unconditional support of Israel today is based on this mythology. Israel should be treated like any other country. And Jews should be treated like any other ethnic group. It should not be tabu to criticize any one in a free society.
