With not enough bullets to bring about his solution of collectivism, he chose to confiscate the farmer&#8217;s lives by stealing their livestock, seeds, tools and finally by blockading the whole of the Ukraine.  Forced collectivism combined with a paranoid leader in Joseph Stalin parented this 20th century crime on humanity called <a href="http://www.infoukes.com/history/famine/links/" target="_blank">&#8220;Holodomor&#8221;</a>.  <i>Uncle Joe</i>, as President Roosevelt referred to him, was responsible for some 10 million deaths in this genocide of starvation, also called the <a href="http://www.ihr.org/jhr/v06/v06p207_Moroz.html" target=_"blank">&#8220;Artificial Famine&#8221;</a>, and some 40 million total deaths across Russia not including the dead from WWII.  </p>
