The causes of the famines in US and SU were related. The policies to deal with them were different. Note that the OP implied the famine under Stalinism was directed against an particular ethnic group in the SU. My argument refutes that. Your argument does nothing to back the position of the OP.

OP = original poster. A synonym is "parent comment" or "grandparent comment." In this case it refers to arethuza's toplevel comment.
