Not to diminish the evil of what happened on Kristalnacht and the Holocaust in general, but whenever stories like this are told, I always think of the many forgotten stories of the other holocaust that was occurring 1000 miles to the east at the same time. It’s tragic that the crimes of Soviet Communism do not get the same treatment by the media and academia that the Nazis’ crimes get.
I often think of that too. I think even more people were murdered there.
I agree with you 100%
Remember that at the time that Kristallnacht occurred, Hitler and Stalin were also good buddies and less than two years later they carved up Poland together.
