Just one of those sad little stories of people doing their best to survive the war. This time round, the ragtag self-defence force failed to stave off a raid for revolutionary supplies (i.e. pillage by rabid Commies). This story gets little airing, and when it does the lies start flying, because "the right people died at the hands of the good guys."

Well, that's one version of what happened, there are others.
"the right people died at the hands of the good guys."
Maybe that's true, maybe it isn't.

A friend was there at the time. Not while it was happening but so soon after that the bodies were still there. It affected him so much that he still gets very emotional about what he saw even now in his tenth decade.
It's easy to talk about these things with the luxury of distance but sad to make a trolling post about 'commies' when the incidents took place during the worst period of history in which to live and in one of the worst places. Sadly it was a time of massacres - Baba Yar, Jedwabne, the Death Camps built in Poland etc. The perpetrators were usually not 'commies' and the nationality of the villagers is an irrelevance now - any of us can behave inhumanly to others regardless of who we are.

In this aspect, read "The Bloodlands" by Timothy Snyder. Very disturbing reading.
These kind of postings...you can smell them from a mile to come....You cannot wait until the word "Jew' pops up somehow.
