Re: [Cz-L] 28 June 1940

Sylvia,
  Things your mother told you .
The 1940 Soviet takeover was a non- violent takeover. Not an invasion.
  By the Soviets that we called Russians.
   The Russians didnt love Jews. Nobody else did .
   The word pogrom comes from Russian.
    But in the battle of Stalingrad they saved the European Jewry.
      As a by-product of saving Russia,

Hardy
