"Fifty years ago Ukraine
was ravaged and brought to the verge of physical extinction
not by some natural cause; such as pestilence, drought, floods
or an extremely poor harvest."
"In 1932 Ukraine was
especially selected by the Kremlin leaders to be punished
for its aversion and opposition to the enforced collectivization
of agriculture and the Soviet Russian national oppression
and Russian imperialism."
"Fifty years ago

"Dr. Ewald Ammende,
secretary of the Inter-Confessional and International Aid Committee
for the Starvation Districts, wrote in 1934:
"...'I must say with all determination, clearly and openly, that
on the basis of present great differences and antagonisms with respect
to the Ukrainian people, Russia aspires toward the extermination
of a great part of the present generation in Ukraine...'
"Thus, the Soviet government,
decided to destroy the very kernel of the Ukrainian people
in directing its genocide attack on these particular strata
of the Ukrainian people:
1. The Ukrainian 'peasantry',
which was to be destroyed as a 'class enemy';
2. The Ukrainian 'intelligentsia'
was earmarked for destruction under the appellation of 'Ukrainian
3. The 'Ukrainian Orthodox
Autocephalic Church' was an obstacle in cementing the barbarous
rule of Russian Communism in Ukraine, and had to be ruthlessly

in Ukraine, and therefore Ukraine has to be physically subdued as
an obstacle to the march of Russian Communism!
3. A great number
of scholars of all nationalities unanimously concur in their assessment
that the famine in Ukraine was a 'deliberate and national genocide
of the Ukrainian people!'
4. Mykola Shrypnyk,
commissar of education in Ukraine, told a visiting American Communist
that at least '8,000,000 people' died of starvation in Ukraine,
which Volodymyr Balytsky, head of the GPU in Ukraine, told the same
American visitor that the figure was 9,000,000.
