    This is a poor analogy. The Soviet famine of 1931–33 was neither intentional nor weaponized. The “Holomodor” narrative was Nazi propaganda, and the “Holomodor” name was coined by Banderite fascists in the late 1980s to evoke associations with the Holocaust.

    The Holodomor Industry. The ‘Bandera Lobby’ and the ‘Ukrainian Holocaust’ industry

    Douglas Tottle, 1987, Fraud, famine and fascism: the Ukrainian genocide myth from Hitler to Harvard:

    Featured in the Nazi press in 1933, the famine-genocide campaign moved to Britain in 1934, and to the United States the year after. In Germany, a country with a history of strong communist, socialist and trade union movements, the Nazis created the first organized propaganda campaign (1933-1935) as part of their consolidation of power. In Britain and the United States, on the other hand, the campaign was advanced as part of right-wing efforts to keep the Soviet Union isolated and out of the League of Nations. It also served to discourage growing working class militancy in the Great Depression.

      Yep. The Irish “potato” famine would be a better analogy - maybe that’s a part of why Irish politicians are at least paying lip service to Gaza, when compared to most of the rest of EU.

          That’s almost true, the Brits did shoot and kill quite a few Irishmen, just not during the famine.

              Not trying to diminish the Gaza situation. I agree Israel is committing deliberate genocide right now and it needs to stop.
