(6) Group cohesion. The incitement of fear and hatred in Jews increases popular
support for, and the flow of private donations to, Jewish leaders. A focus is needed
for that fear and hatred. At the moment, Ukrainians have been chosen to be that focus.
Most of the above assertions have been documented, sometimes at length, on the Ukrainian
Archive at www.ukar.org. If you would like me to direct your attention to documentation
concerning any particular assertion - whether that documentation is on the Ukrainian
Archive or elsewhere - please let me know and I will be happy to oblige.
Twelve minutes to restored credibility
I think you will have no trouble accomodating all of the above points into a single 60
Minutes segment. If you do, and if you broadcast that segment, you will turn your
currently failing grades for competence and integrity into high As, and you will lift
the status of 60 Minutes to a level never before reached in American journalism. If you
do not, you will credit 60 Minutes with the dubious achievement of having broadcast the
most concentrated segment of hate propaganda ever to make its appearance in the
mainstream media.

"At the end of June 1941 the NKVD massacred 10,000 prisoners in Lviv."
Nicolas Werth
In connection with the photograph below, the caption referring to "hundreds of bodies"
at Vinnytsia may be somewhat of an underestimate, as other sources give higher counts,
as for example in a Chronology of Major Events, opposite the date 13-17 July, 1943, the
following entry: "An international medical commission with representation from neutral
powers examines the graves of 9,439 victims of NKVD shootings (1937-8) in Vinnytsia"
(Yury Boshyk, Ukraine during World War II: History and its aftermath, Canadian Institute
of Ukrainian Studies, Edmonton, 1986, p. 257).

Jews massacred Ukrainians in pre-German Lviv
One cannot read the history of the 1941 German invasion of Ukraine without endlessly
bumping into accounts of the massacre of Ukrainians by the retreating Jewish-dominated
NKVD. In reinforcement of the many quotations which I brought to your attention in my
letter to you of 04Jul99, I presently enclose the chapter-long statement of Alfred M. de
Zayas, and I add below the briefer statement of Nicolas Werth:
The rapid German advance in the first months of the war forced the NKVD
to evacuate several prisons, labor colonies, and camps that would
otherwise have fallen into enemy hands. Between July and December
1941, 210 colonies, 135 prisons, and 27 camps, containing nearly
750,000 prisoners, were transferred to the east. Summarizing "gulag
activity in the Great Patriotic War," the Gulag chief, Ivan Nasedkin,
claimed that "on the whole, the evacuation of the camps was quite well
organized." He went on to add, however, that "because of the shortage
of transport, most of the prisoners were evacuated on foot, over
distances that sometimes exceeded 600 miles." One can well imagine the
condition in which the prisoners arrived at their destinations. When
there was not enough time for a camp to be evacuated, as was often the
case in the opening weeks of the war, the prisoners were simply
executed. This was particularly the case in western Ukraine, where at
the end of June 1941 the NKVD massacred 10,000 prisoners in Lviv, 1,200
in the prison at Lutsk, 1,500 in Stanislwow, and 500 in Dubno. When
the Germans arrived, they discovered dozens of mass graves in the
regions of Lviv, Zhytomyr, and Vynnytsa. Using these "Judeo-Bolshevik
atrocities" as a pretext, the Nazi Sonderkommandos in their turn
immediately massacred tens of thousands of Jews.

Communism: Crimes, Terror, Repression, Harvard University Press,

The Wiesenthal-Safer Calumny is a lie of Orwellian
proportions
Of course my reason for bringing these two additional accounts to your attention is to
underline the admission that journalistic ethics demands that you make - that your
23Oct94 60 Minutes story The Ugly Face of Freedom got things exactly backwards. In the
days prior to German occupation, it was Jews who were killing Ukrainians by the
thousands. This is attested to by many. The Wiesenthal-Safer Calumny that in the
days prior to German occupation, Lviv Ukrainians killed some five to six thousand Jews
is attested to only by Simon Wiesenthal and yourself.
CBS attempts to re-write history
One motive for CBS Jews to broadcast the Ugly Face of Freedom appears to be to re-write
a history that they find unflattering. The historical record shows that Communist rule
