Russian officials have ordered to inspect and remove books by well-known British historians John Keegan and Antony Beevor from libraries, saying they promote Nazi-era stereotypes. The move is among a raft of measures to streamline historical narrative by limiting alternative viewpoints, as well as ending the perceived foreign influence from fields such as education. The regional education ministry in Sverdlovsk, near the Ural Mountains, issued a decree telling school and university libraries to 'check the availability of books' by the historians and 'take measures to remove them from access by students and teaching staff'.

Highly recommend Beevor's book. Will the Russian sources that confirm the mass rapes also be expunged?

we will see this tried here as well by Barry and his ilk. They want to rewrite our history to change our future.

Robert Conquest’s books covered the Stalin atrocities some years ago. Conquest died earlier this week.

The Russian Army has always been a mob of rapists — even before the Soviets.
