Jewish leaders hate the word Holodomer becauseI believe Jews made up 60% of the Russia State.

Do you have a link to that 60%?

Jewish population in USSR in 1933 was around 2.5 million according to this source:

https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/jewish-population-of-europe-in-1933-population-data-by-country

Overall population of USSR in 1930s estimated around 160-170 million (of course in flux due to famine/genocide and also increases in some other areas).

There's a reasonably large amount of literature that notes that there was a large percentage of Jews among the Bolshevik revolutionaries. Probably not 60%, but quite a bit larger than their actual percentage of the population.

YIVO (Yiddish Scientific Institute) has an article Russian Revolutions of 1917

YIVO also conducted some talks on the subject in 2017. In https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2O2yZT49_A, there is a segment on Jewish representation in the Secret Police (49:00), with the role of Jews in the NKVD being discussed at 55:00.

JTA — Russian President Vladimir Putin said that at least 80 percent of the members of the first Soviet government were Jewish.

“I thought about something just now: The decision to nationalize this library was made by the first Soviet government, whose composition was 80-85 percent Jewish,” Putin said June 13 during a visit to Moscow’s Jewish Museum and Tolerance Center.
