Stalin

Iosif-Vissarionovich Dzhugashvili born on December 21, 1878 in Gori, Georgia, in the then Russian Empire. In 1913 he changed his name to Stalin, which translates to 'Man of Steel'. Many speculate he was Jewish because Georgians do not, as a rule, change their names. Jews change their names. Stalin had three wives, all of them Jewesses. In 1921 he was placed in charge of the Communist Party bureau responsible for appointing and dismissing party members. By the end of the 1930 Stalin emerged as the supreme leader of the Soviet Union. The state took control of the economy, introducing a program of rapid industrialization and agrarian consolidation and setting unrealistic goals for development. Industry and commerce are nationalized. All social, political and regulatory power is centered on the state. Twenty five million peasant farmers are forced to collectivize their property and then work on the new state-controlled farms. Wealthy peasants (kulaks) and the uncooperative are arrested and either executed or deported to work camps in Siberia. In an effort to wipe out Ukrainian nationalism, as well as to destroy the resistance of Ukrainian farmers to collectivization of agriculture, Stalin, the communist dictator of the Soviet Union, sent troops to confiscate all food. Throughout whole regions the Red Army soldiers and secret police went door-to-door, farm-to-farm, taking all crops, all livestock, all poultry — down to the last grain, the last cabbage, the last chicken. Soviet troops then sealed off the borders to prevent the Ukrainians from getting out, as well as to prevent relief supplies and foreign eyewitnesses from coming in. Entire towns and villages starved to death. During 1932 and1933, between seven and 10 million Ukrainians were murdered through a brutal campaign of mass starvation, under the direct orders of Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin. See Holodomor
