Arrow Video: Harvest of Despair (Holodomor)

Harvest of Despair (Soviet Engineered Famine in the Ukraine) 1933

Few people know of the atrocities commited by the communists in Ukraine. The Holodomor, the Soviet engineered famine of 1933 was directed ... all ╩ by Stalin agains the Ukrainian people, in a savage atempt to crush their will. Millions of people have died of hunger in one of the most shameful pages of human history.

The video is not best quality, but does have a lot of history. About an hour long and is graphic.

Video Can Be Found Here (On Google Video)

Kathy, great job at moderation of this thread and language, but I did see what the original reply was since I am subscribed to this via email :-)

nick_derevianko,
Lets go through what the title (and description of this video) is
"Harvest of Despair (Soviet Engineered Famine in the Ukraine) 1933"
Soviet Engineered Famine

Now, I know your comeback already. I know that technically Soviet would consider Ukraine part of that, but I think its refered to differently.

I will agree that at the begining of this some Ukrainians were convinced and did actually begin to follow Stalin.

Now pay attention here.
I said "Truly shows how cruel the Russians were"
You said "or was it stalin and his communist buddies"

Well, when i say russians, i probably dont mean the entire russian population (I dont think they could even fit into Ukraine if they tried).

Let me give you an example "Americans are currently fighting the war in Iraq, or starting it, or invaded Iraq" Do I mean that the entire population in America is doing it? See, very few people in America actually support that war.

Usually when you say that you mean Americans as "President, head people, and troops"

Now, i respect this board and what Kathy does, so I would not use the language that you use, but if you still don't get it, let me know.

Maybe in a nicer way this time, okay?

a 5 minute video

I came across another video on the genocide. . .

WARNING!
This also has GRAPHIC pictures,
it's about 5 minutes long,
(and the background music is Ozzy Osbourne)

It seems to be done by an 9th grader as a class project.

It is an antrocity in itself that one of the best videos for this subject is decades old. More Ukrainians were killed in this Holocaust than Jews in WW2! And yet many Jewish holocaust films come out each year while the Holomdor is largely unknown by most people!
Stand up Ukraine! Voice what happened! I would be so proud to see a real motion picture about the Soviet forced famine.
