I figured I needed a place to collect my writing about the Israeli and American campaign to “save” Soviet Jews, and about my own family’s emigration out of the Soviet Union. So here it is. I’ll be updating it regularly.

A personal history:
Part Two: Soviet Jews and a Zionist Population Transfer Dream Deferred
Part Three: Zionists, Palestinian kidnappers, and the forced migration of Soviet Jews to Israel
Part Four: Soviet immigrant camps and how I got into journalism
The Israeli campaign to influence American Jews:
How Israeli agents in America helped seed the myth of Soviet Jewish genocide
Elie Wiesel's Israeli propaganda and the myth of Soviet genocide against the Jews
When Martin Luther King got sucked into an Israeli propaganda op
Zionism in the USSR
The Diaspora
Pretty disgusting to see the swastika equated with the hammer & sickle considering it was the Soviet Red Army that liberated Jews from the death camps in Eastern Europe that they could have as easily bypassed. Nobody must ever forget the sacrifices of the Russian people and the Red Army to defeat Nazism. Had they not been victorious, most of the world would likely be goose-stepping today.
Great idea, Yasha.
I've bookmarked the page. I appreciate all the insight you put into these entries. On a similar note, I see Kevin Gosztola has just relaunched https://thedissenter.org/the-dissenter-newsletter-re-launches/
Both you fine fellows are must reads IMHO 👍
