Holodomor

I’ll be clear on this right from the outset – this is in no way tekk related, nor is it the kind of article you would expect to find on this site.

I was just perusing the internet and came across a topic that has never caught my attention before, since world issues are not something that I can profess to having a great deal of interest in, after all, I have more than enough issues at home, with my family and in my community as it is, however I found this website interesting.

image Holodomor Truth is a website publicising unbiased facts concerning the Golodomor (mass hunger/famine) in the Soviet Union between 1932 and 1933, during which an estimated 6-6 MILLION peasants died of hunger.

It’s amazing to think, in my opinion at least, that even during the last 100 years a modern, developed society such as the Soviet Union could be hit so hard by famine.

I believe that people the world over should read the information on this webpage.  It is well presented and easy to understand.  If you take a look, and have an opinion on he atrocity, please come back here and leave your comments.  I am interested to read your opinion.
