Mass starvation killed millions in the Holodomor 90 years ago. Now Russia has again chosen the path of terrorA memorial in Kyiv to commemorate the victims of the Holodomor famine in Ukraine in 1932-1933.A memorial in Kyiv to commemorate the victims of the Holodomor famine in Ukraine in 1932-1933.Holodomor
is one of the most terrifying words ever coined: no movie or book can convey its horrors. Have you ever tried to imagine mass starvation? Millions of slow, torturous, painful deaths. It’s difficult even to conceive of it – but it’s there in the historical record. Picture it: people cling to life with all their dwindling might. They eat grass, leather boots, tree bark. They mix orach with pounded corn cobs. They grind millet husks with weeds, just to last a day longer. The foods are hardly chewable, and the human body cannot digest them, so people have constant stomach aches. They make the legs swell and the skin crack. Bodies lie in the streets. Some are missing flesh. Mothers lose their senses seeing their kids die.
Ukraine, for centuries the well-fed breadbasket of Europe, was transformed into hell 90 years ago. Having conquered our country – not for the first time – the Russians failed, once again, to subdue its people.Between 1929 and 1932, a wave of peasant uprisings swept through Ukraine, then under Soviet rule – and the empire took revenge. It retaliated cruelly and cynically, taking food away from those who produced it.
One extra letter makes no difference to the aim; the passing of 90 years make no difference. The essence is the same: genocide. The destruction of Ukraine, as an independent state, as a nation, as a free people. But again, the Kremlin’s attempts to swallow our state, piece by piece, as it did a century ago, are failing.
That'll teach Ukraine that laundering money for the Biden crime family and the DNC comes at a cost.
