I dispute the latter statements. OF course talk of the famine was
greatest in areas not under soviet control, where news was suppressed.
My grandfather and a few others - a small minority of people from
"velyka ukrainia" within the diaspora lived through the Famine, had
family that died during it. While obviously the post-Stalin USSR
could not be compared to Nazi Germany (though it was still worse than,
for example, Franco's Spain), Stalinism, and Pol Pot's communism were
not much different.

respectfully,



You forgot to add one important detail that your grandpa is cretin.
But if he is cretin his tales are good only for residents of
cretin-houses. Don't forget to remind your grandpa the right address
where he can be understood the best.
