Recently, the EU parliament recognized the Holodomor as “<A HREF="http://en.rian.ru/russia/20081028/118000736.htmls" REL="nofollow">a crime against humanity </A>,” but not as genocide.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Gracias, Gabriela!<BR/><BR/>Here’s <A HREF="http://plakat.censor.net.ua/pic/posters/very_big/1223899096.jpg" REL="nofollow">one</A> that relates to Latin America:<BR/><BR/><I>Chavez: Disband the IMF!<BR/>Yushchenko: Disband parliament!<BR/>Peace protester: Disband hair and bring the troops home!</I><BR/><BR/>Saludos desde Kyiv, Ucrania!Tarashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18139892487573795049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19297350.post-25365120349679599352008-10-29T05:47:00.000+02:002008-10-29T05:47:00.000+02:00Hello Taras:Very funny cartoons indeed!Saludos des...Hello Taras:<BR/>Very funny cartoons indeed!<BR/>Saludos desde Lima.Gabrielahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03280432296207747625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19297350.post-84161138490258531452008-10-29T01:45:00.000+02:002008-10-29T01:45:00.000+02:00Taras,Please post more topics about Holodomor.

The more I read about it, more I am convinced that the famine was purposely engineered by the Soviet authorities as an aatempt to wipe out Ukrainian people from SSR.<BR/><BR/>Remember what happened when Georgia stood against Russia? The first counter-measure Russians used is economic blockage. Of course, they can't starve Georgians, but remember, Ukraine was part of Russian "empire" and they could have done whatever they wanted with it.<BR/><BR/>It was a silent genocide engineered by Russia. <BR/><BR/>Lets NOT forget victims of Holodomor!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
