So, do you know how many famine genocides there were in the Soviet Union? Do you think with the rampant antisemitism in Russia - russia that invented the word “pale” as “beyond the pale” - that a great portion of the 40 million were not Jewish.

You don't need to lecture me on the crimes of the Soviets. However, the idea that they killed more than 6 million Jews is simply not suportable by any evidence. Mao was also a great butcher, but he also didn't kill 6 million Jews.

” However, the idea that they killed more than 6 million Jews is simply not suportable by any evidence. “

You have no idea how many Jews lived in rural Ukraine where mortality rates reached 100% in many villages during the Genocide Famine.

The total death toll including the Famines of 1921, 1932, and 1947 is about 13-15 million - another 20 million perished in the Gulags. Throw in Stalins “Doctor Purge” and the bottom line is that you dont know much about communism but you certainly know much about leftist Pole bashing propaganda.

“Contemporary Jewish octogenarians in Ukraine have lived through revolution, civil war, Stalinism (collectivization and state-induced famine, forced closure of small businesses, political terror), distortion and suppression of Jewish life”.
