Re: Israel pushing for Kurdish state?



They were formally autonomous. In reality, there was
Great Russian
chauvinism from just around the time that Stalin was
consolidating
power. Lenin's concern over this matter prompted him
to wage his final
struggle against Stalin.

If a Georgian with a goofy accent can be a Great
Russian chauvinist. Let's see, Stalin - Georgian,
Khrushchev = Ukrainian, Brezhnev = probably an ethnic
Ukrainian from Moldova, Gorbachev = from Ukraine
too... hey, were any of the "Great Russian chauvinist"
leaders actually Russian? Nope.
