“Bring up The Holodomor”
Most people I talk to have never heard of it. I refer to it as the Ukrainian holocaust, as people are familiar with the term “Holocaust.”
People say of the German/Jewish Holocaust “that we must never forget, lest it happen again.” Thanks to Walter Duranty and the New York Times primarily, we never knew of the Ukrainian holocaust. Not knowing is the ultimate in forgetting. And yes, it happened again, to the Jews.
The New York Times forgave Stalin his holocaust out of sympathy for communism. They thereby encouraged Hitler’s holocaust of the Jews. If the New York Times had responded with appropriate reporting and horror of the Holodomor, the Holocaust would never have happened.
It is ironic that the Jewish owners/managers of the New York Times ultimately brought death and destruction to the Jewish people. However, there is no justice in this. The deceiving New York Times covered up the death of millions of innocent people for whom they cared little. Unintentionally, they encouraged the death of millions of other innocent people, people they cared about.
Denying the Holodomor enabled the Holocaust. We should rub that in their face at every opportunity.
Good point.
