    Litvinov was a Jew. The Nazis did not like negotiating with a Jew - enter Molotov.

    yes, but after 1936 % of Jews in nomenclature (including NKVD) decreasing since then , and in 50th Koba openly planned a total annihilation of Jews , Jewish people rights were restricted , antisemitism became a normal in sovok etc

    This is true, for example, Jewish people had a lot of problems to get into the Universities for studies, Doctor's case, etc.

    Yes, when Stalin died he had already assembled the rolling stock to transport all Jews to Siberian camps. The Jews were lucky - for a change.

    It is my understanding that many of the medical doctors were Jews. Stalin was convinced that they were plotting to kill him.

    No, i posted already info, and you missed it, even in desperate war against both dictators Koba and Hitler, UPA didn´t see the Jews as the foes, even more. UPA had many Jewish fighters. German and Muscovite nationalism in 20c saw the Jews , as the main enemies , who had to be eradicate. Poland (second polish republic) targeted them too, but Poland had way softer approach (deportation) . UPA ideology (later period) for instance was important for many Cuban revolutionaries , and their ideology

    well this is pretty damning, they had specific information and did nothing. Also the use of flamethrowers and tanks added to the casualties.

    I unfortunately didn't have enough time to watch the full video but scrolled through some of it, the kids being interviewed is heartbreaking, so very young.

    I thought Stalin was going to concentrate them in his new Jewish Republic.

    It was his nature. Antisemitic.

    And in the party, they were the educated.

    Litwin.
    What did you think of Ruby Ridge on PBS American Experience.
    I hope you experienced it. Even a few minutes. And Waco too.
    I hope you found it a bit, enlightening or making you "wonder".

    Stalin's Himmler Plan? The notion of an "autonomous" state within the USSR is a stretch.

    Stalin's death saved the remaining Soviet Jews.

    A defenseless republic is just a tempting prize.

    Tell that to the Swiss.
    Maybe Iceland too.
    Or even :flagcanada: if you count them too.

    Ukraine is a region, not a Republic.
    The ole USSR termed what were administrative areas as Republics.
    And the west played a game with such terminology.
    You will probably have the last word.
    I don't wish to debate the legitimacy of Ukraine as a nation all over again like deja-vu
    repeating itself in an on going loop, over and over again.

    The Swiss are very well defended. Iceland has been a tempting prize since the US military left Keflavik.

    The old man tried to provoke me , and you. Ukraine has one of the best army in Europe, ulus of juchi have 0 chance to take over Ukraine. In 2014 it had 5000 combat fighters , today more then 200 000 . Ulus of juchi lost 2 wars against a little Chechenya, which has never had more then 2000 fighters . You can ask any expert how many combat fighters does have Muscovites today, not much + they are Intruders meanwhile Ukrainians fight at home and do It very, very well...

    The Ukraine historically has not been thought of as passive. Ukrainians apparently had too much confidence in USG promises of military support - they should have kept their nukes. A military build up was obviously overdue.
