Guess we should remember evil Brits for nearly wiping out a race of people, evil americans for enslaving blacks, evil turks for armenian genocide....
God, these people are far too much. Only line of defense is holdomor for their racist and stupid viewpoint.
These Holodomor blood libelists are the worst sort of scum. The whole of western Ukraine (Rivne, Ivano-Frankivsk, Lviv, etc.) were
under Polish rule during the 1930s. The forced collectivization famines extended from Soviet Ukraine to Kazakhstan, including the Volga
region of Russia. The people of the Donbass lived through the Holodomor yet the Nazi-allied vermin from west Ukraine uses the
famine to beat them over the head with!
The obscenity is mind numbing. The attempt to paint the forced collectivization famines of the 1930s as some sort of Russian
genocide of Ukrainians takes the cake for revisionist filth. The Bandera-loving Ukrainians in Canada and the USA like to make
up stories how Russians either 1) did not starve while Ukrainians did or 2) that the Russians were settled in the Donbas after all
the original inhabitants died out.
I have some observations pertaining to point (2) above:
1) Show me the evidence! I have not seen a single survey of the residents of the Donbas which would verify that they
are all there from after the famine. Proof by assertion from Banderits originating in Lwow is simply not good enough. I have
heard people from the Donbas saying how the have family graves they tend to from the 1880s. Also, there are Serb and
Greek communities there. Clearly these did not settle there during the 1930s and are evidence that the Banderites are
spewing hate fiction.
2) The Albanian majority in Kosovo is due to the fact that many of them settled there during WWII and after as Serbs
were ethnically cleansed from the region. The Albanians were Nazi allies and the SS Skanderberg Division did its share of
atrocities. After WWII, Tito prevented Serb refugees from returning to Kosovo (in the name of brotherly love
and ethnic peace, one supposes). NATO has never taken these facts into account, all it cares about is that Albanians
are a majority in Kosovo. Well, Russians are a majority in Crimea and the Donbas. What is good for NATO is good for Russia
unless you believe in different standards and laws for everyone.
I like to think of myself as reasonably clued up. But thats never really dawned on me.
My family left Kiev in the Stalin era mainly down to Stalin attempting some Ukrainification, which he later dumped. All part of this " chauvinism of nations" doctrine (because he was Georgian).
But yes, the W Ukr nutters are all crowing on about this libellous crap of "Holodomor" and yet their forebears weren't even in the Soviet Union at the time!!Most people who starved ie due to famine NOT something deliberate, were actually pro Russian or Russian and living in what is now the East of the Ukr or elsewhere in the USSR.
This Holodomor garbage I am sure comes from Washington with Canadians who's ancestors were from Lvov etc.
