Lets Keep it Jewish.......
An idea now gaining credence is that there was to be a second Holocaust - this time courtesy of Stalin.

Over the centuries Russia was certainly no stranger to anti-Jewish pogroms, and allegedly Uncle Joe's next big 'thing' after the defeat of the Germany was to be a pogrom of larger size than that perpetrated as the Nazi's Final Solution.

Reports began appearing in Pravda from 1951 and gained momentum in 1952 about acts of 'sabotage', 'wrecking', and 'crimes against the people' by doctors, the majority of whom had Jewish surnames.
Using this as evidence of a larger Anti-Soviet Jewish conspiracy, it is believed that sometime in 1953 or 1954 Stalin would have begun a purge of Jewish doctors and academics, as a prelude to a much larger general anti-Jewish purge.
The estimates of likely deaths was between 6 to 8 million.*

Fortunately for Russia's Jews, the old bastard died in early 1953 and virtually all reports about the activities of Jewish doctors vanished from Pravda within a few days of his death.


*The final figure was to include mostly Jews, but would encompass anyone else the regime could use the opportunity to be rid of.

It was in a book......
.... I read about 5 or 6 years ago by two chaps whose names I have forgotten, but the foreword was by Dr Robert Conquest. So if he endorsed it by forewording it, I place some credence in it.
Otherwise, its hunting down old copies for Pravda from 1951-52 and reading from cover to cover. And I wish you luck!
Jeez, the English language version was hard enough to digest!!

Stalin
Definitely killed a lot of jews - fuckloads of them. But as he killed huge amounts of other people too it isnt highlighted. He also had several jewish advisors who were among his closest friends and inner circle, some of whom were with him for many years before he had them assassinated and purged from the records in fits of paranoia. But, again, he did this to everyone.
