While VP Biden flew to Kiev today to show shallow solidarity with Ukraine, one must know that Kiev is the birthplace of the former Soviet Union, the keys to the kingdom of history, which is ripe for a re-birth.

Ukraine has a very nasty history and in recent decades has worked to find itself among a true democratic nation, learning to finds it’s way in the modern era. Putin is following the Stalin doctrine and is blocking Ukraine/Crimea from further advancements.

It begins with famine, disease, genocide and death, lots of death where Jews were no exception. Recently, the agenda for all Jews to register and pay a tax or leave the country, of which some leadership in the world is calling disgusting, it proves a multi-track mission that is a carbon copy of the KGB/FSB under Stalin.

A holocaust survivor sees this clearly and has spoken out to the Jews in the region to get out now. How can this be in this time, where historically, all lessons were learned and trials and documents have proven the history, but yet never seems to be written or taught?

What can Barack Obama, Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton or John Kerry know and what have they ignored as they dither on the policy with Russia, Ukraine, Crimea or any of the other Baltic States? They know and they ignore, as there are too many staffers and historians in the administration that provide context and facts. Additionally, all administrations have deep ties to academia where professors on all sides of arguments and debate deliver research, white papers, documents and thesis on all parts of the globe, so currently the matter of Russia, Ukraine, Crimea and more historical content has been dusted off as recently as 2009 when the real Russia goal of annexing additional nations is the sole quest of Putin.

The question of Holodomor must be reviewed as a window of what may come soon in that region. After some digging, this University of Chicago professor knows the history and created an assignment for his students and other assigned professors. Within this assignment, there are facts that are not disputed.

“One of the universal lessons of the Holocaust is that national,

ethnic, racial, or religious hatred can overtake any nation or society,

leading to calamitous consequences. To reinforce that lesson, such

curriculum shall include an additional unit of instruction studying

other acts of genocide across the globe. This unit shall include, but

not be limited to, the Armenian Genocide, the Famine-Genocide in

Ukraine, and more recent atrocities in Cambodia, Bosnia, Rwanda,

and Sudan.”

 

 

Holodomor means “death by starvation.”

Although we will never know the exact number

who died in Ukraine during this period, the Ukrainian government today estimates that, taking into

account data related to the demographic consequences of the famine, “Ukrainian losses resulting

from the famine of 1932-1933 total no fewer than ten million people”. This campaign, purposefully

orchestrated by Joseph Stalin and his Soviet cohorts, included summary executions for hoarding

grain and deportations for resistance*.

 

Why is the Holodomor Unknown?

 

There are two reasons: The Soviet Union never

 

admitted its existence and many correspondents in the West, primarily Walter Duranty of the New

 

York Times, were complicit in covering it up.

 

What are the Implications of the Holdomor in Today’s Geopolitical World?

 

The Soviet genocide against the Ukrainian people was part of a centuries-old pattern of behavior by

 

Moscow’s rulers. The Soviets were following in the footsteps of their Czarist predecessors who

 

denied the existence of a separate Ukrainian nation. The return of Russian chauvinism under

 

President/Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, the rehabilitation of Stalin in today’s Russia, the questioning

 

of Ukraine’s right to exist as an independent nation by many Russians, as well as the continued

 

denial of the Holodomor/Genocide by Russian governmental officials, are troubling developments,

 

not only for Ukrainians but for all freedom-loving people throughout the world. ***

 

The purpose of this curriculum guide for educators is to acquaint them with this tragedy.

It should be noted here that Walter Duranty worked for the New York Times and was a paid agent of the KGB. Not to be overlooked, the KGB created the PLO, Black Liberation Theology and sought to defeat the Vatican.

During the winter of 1932-33, some ten million Ukrainians living in the Union of Soviet

Socialist Republics (USSR) died of forced starvation. They perished during a Genocide

Famine (hereafter referred to as the “Holodomor”, the current Ukrainian term used to identify

the calamity) engineered by the Soviet government which had three major objectives in that

part of its expanding empire:

1. To annihilate a significant portion of that segment of the Ukrainian population which had

most vociferously and openly resisted increasingly oppressive Soviet rule.

2. To terrorize the surviving Ukrainian population into submission to Soviet totalitarian

domination.

3. To provide funds for Soviet industrial expansion from the sale of expropriated Ukrainian

wheat and other foodstuffs to the rest of the world.

Just as the Jewish Holocaust is not simply a “Jewish issue”, the Holodomor in Ukraine is not

simply a “Ukrainian issue”. Both genocides have universal implications. The Holocaust is an

example of genocide perpetrated by an overtly racist, fascist regime which had as its

avowed purpose the annihilation of the Jewish people. The Ukrainian Holodomor is an

example of genocide perpetrated by a Communist regime which, while calling itself

internationalist, was contaminated by Russian chauvinism. For Russian Bolsheviks,

Ukrainian ethno-cultural self-assertion was a threat to both the primacy of Russian culture in

Soviet affairs, and to the centralization of all authority in the hands of Soviet dictator Joseph

Stalin.

Although the Holodomor in Ukraine is one of the greatest crimes ever perpetrated against a

single nation in the 20th century, the West is hardly aware of it ever having taken place. This

is so for four reasons:

1) consistent denial by Soviet officials;

2) conscious cover-up by influential Western correspondents reporting from Moscow;

3) a dearth of information about the Soviet Union’s crimes within its own borders, crimes that

since the collapse of the Soviet Union appear to be fading from public consciousness, both

here and abroad;

4) an information vacuum regarding Ukraine and its people among American academics, the

mass media, and the general public where the prevailing view was that Ukrainians were

Russians who spoke a Russian dialect. Even though Ukraine has been an independent

nation-state since 1991, this perception, still promoted by many Russian intellectuals,

remains an accepted fact in many American circles.

This professor’s document is here to be read, it is filled with indisputable citations and quotes from those where were there.

So we now know this administration’s policy on Russia with regard to Ukraine and Baltic States is feckless and most of all deadly.
