Food as a weapon: Stalin

After purging military commanders that might object and replacing them with commanders that would tow the party line, Josef Stalin engaged in his own Soviet-style Holocaust when, in 1932 and 1933, an estimated six to 20 million people in the Ukraine died from starvation.  

Stalin implemented his prescription of “hope and change” policies in order to eliminate the Ukrainian’s desire for becoming their own nation-state.

Upon assuming power, the Stalinist Communist regime rapidly nationalized the food industry and forced all of the region’s farms into collectives. 

Thus, Stalin’s version of the Holocaust came to fruition in what history has dubbed, the “Holdomor,” in which millions perished in only a two year period when the Soviet government began to exterminate the Ukrainian population by taking control of food and food production. 

And why would Stalin do such a thing to his own people? 

The Ukrainians were discussing and publicizing some very dangerous ideas about freedom, liberty and the ability to act of political autonomy.
