   The Genocide at Vinnitsa   
   by Dr. William Pierce National Alliance Chairman In His Speech Given On   
   Radio On June 20, 1998   
      
   We spoke a few weeks ago about the mass murder of the leadership stratum   
   of the Polish nation by the Soviet secret police in the Katyn Forest in   
   April 1940. We discussed that genocidal atrocity in the light of the   
   ongoing Jewish campaign to portray Jews as the principal victims of the   
   Second World War and to collect reparations from the rest of the world   
   today. A good deal of interest in that broadcast was expressed by   
   listeners, many of whom had not been acquainted previously with the   
   facts of the Katyn atrocity. Today I will explore this general subject   
   further. I will tell you about the fate of the Ukrainian nation at the   
   hands of the Soviet secret police.   
   In 1943 Germany was at war against the Soviet Union. Twenty-five years   
   earlier, at the end of the First World War, when communist   
   revolutionaries were attempting to take over Germany, Adolf Hitler had   
   sworn to devote his life to fighting communism. He was only a corporal   
   at the time, recuperating from his war wounds in a military hospital,   
   but 15 years later, in 1933, he became chancellor of Germany, and in   
   1941 his army invaded the Soviet Union with the aim of destroying Soviet   
   communism. The German Army pushed far into the Soviet empire and   
   liberated all of Ukraine from the communists.   
   In May 1943 units of the German Army were stationed in the Ukrainian   
   city of Vinnitsa, a community of 100,000 persons in a primarily   
   agricultural district. Ukrainian officials in Vinnitsa told the Germans   
   that five years earlier the NKVD -- the Soviet secret police, very   
   similar to our FBI -- had buried the bodies of a number of executed   
   political prisoners in a city park. The Germans investigated, and within   
   a month they had dug up 9439 corpses from a number of mass graves in the   
   park and a nearby orchard.   
   Unlike the Poles murdered in the Katyn Forest, all of these bodies found   
   at Vinnitsa were those of civilians, most of them Ukrainian farmers or   
   workers. The bodies of the men all had their hands tied behind their   
   backs, like the Polish officers at Katyn. Although the men's bodies were   
   clothed, the bodies of a number of young women were naked. All of the   
   victims had been shot in the back of the neck with a .22 caliber pistol,   
   the trademark of the NKVD executioners.   
   The Germans called in an international team of forensic pathologists to   
   examine the bodies and the mass graves. The international team, which   
   included pathologists from Belgium, France, Netherlands, and Sweden, as   
   well as from several countries allied with Germany, examined 95 mass   
   graves and conducted a number of autopsies.   
   Including the autopsies already performed by Ukrainian medical personnel   
   in Vinnitsa, 1670 of the corpses were examined in detail. The identities   
   of 679 of them were established either through documents found in their   
   clothes or through recognition by relatives, who flocked to Vinnitsa   
   from the surrounding countryside when they heard that the graves had   
   been uncovered.   
   The authorities estimated that in addition to the 9439 bodies exhumed,   
   there were another 3,000 still in unopened mass graves in the same area.   
   The international team concluded that all of the victims had been killed   
   about five years earlier -- that is, in 1938. Relatives of the victims   
   who were identified all testified that the victims had been arrested by   
   the NKVD in 1937 and 1938. The relatives had been told that those   
   arrested were "enemies of the people" and would be sent to Siberia for   
   10 years. None of the relatives had any idea what the reason was for the   
   arrests and testified that those arrested had committed no crimes and   
   were engaged in no political activity. As I said earlier, nearly all of   
   the victims were farmers or workers, although there were a few priests   
   and civil servants among them.   
   By interviewing a large number of people who had some knowledge of what   
   had happened in Vinnitsa and the surrounding region in 1938, the Germans   
   were able to piece together the following picture. In 1937 and 1938   
   gangs of the NKVD's jackbooted thugs roamed the villages and towns of   
   Ukraine, arresting people in a pattern that seemed almost random to   
   observers. One victim's wife reported that as the NKVD goons dragged her   
   husband away they said only, "Hey, you dog! You've lived too long."   
   Other observers thought they saw a pattern. A Ukrainian who was renting   
   a part of his house to a Jewish lawyer refused to sell the whole house   
   to the Jew when he offered to buy it at an unreasonably low price. A few   
   weeks later the Ukrainian homeowner was arrested by the NKVD. Another   
   Ukrainian who had threatened to beat up a minor communist functionary   
   who made a crude pass at his sister was arrested shortly thereafter. It   
   seemed that many of the arrests were the settling of personal scores and   
   that anyone who had crossed a Jew was especially likely to be arrested.   
   All of this was nothing new for Ukrainians. They had borne the brunt of   
   the communization the Soviet Union for nearly two decades. Ukraine was   
   primarily an agricultural nation, a nation of farmers and villagers, and   
   as such was regarded with suspicion by the Jews and the urban rabble who   
   filled the ranks of the Communist Party. The communists championed the   
   urban workers, but they wasted no love on farmers and villagers, who   
   tended to be too independent and self-sufficient for communist tastes.   
   During the civil war which followed the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917,   
   the Ukrainians wanted to opt out. Ukrainian nationalists wanted no part   
   of the Soviet Union. In 1921 and 1922 the Red Army occupied Vinnitsa,   
   and Ukrainians were butchered wholesale by the Reds in order to kill the   
   Ukrainian nationalist spirit. The craving for Ukrainian independence   
   nevertheless kept flaring up, and further massacres followed, notably in   
   1928.   
   Ukraine was the stronghold of the kulaks, the independent farmers and   
   small landowners, always regarded with special hatred by the communist   
   bosses. Stalin gave the job of exterminating the kulaks to his   
   right-hand man in the Kremlin, Lazar Moiseivich Kaganovich, known later   
   as the "Butcher of Ukraine." Kaganovich, the most powerful Jew in the   
   Soviet Union, supervised the collectivization of Ukrainian farms,   
   beginning in 1929. To break the spirit of the kulaks, the Ukraine was   
   subjected to an artificial famine. The NKVD and Red Army troops went   
   from farm to farm, confiscating crops and livestock. The farmers were   
   told that the food was needed for the workers in the cities. None was   
   left for the farmers. And in 1933 and 1934 seven million Ukrainians died
