Murdered in Mongolia in 1935 on the orders of Stalin, the Welsh investigative journalist Gareth Jones is a national hero in Ukraine for reporting the truth about the Holodomor (the Soviet Union’s politically-driven famine that killed millions) and is widely believed to be the inspiration for the character Mr Jones in George Orwell’s Animal Farm. A graduate of Aberystwyth, Strasbourg and Cambridge universities, Jones—who spoke five languages—was talented, well-connected, and determined to discover the truth behind the momentous political events of the post-war period. He travelled widely to report on Mussolini’s Italy, the fledgling Irish Free State, and the Depression-ravaged United States, and was the first foreign journalist to travel with Hitler and Goebbels after the Nazis had taken power in Germany. Jones’ quest for truth also drew him to the Soviet Union in 1934 where his reporting of the Holodomor incurred the wrath of Stalin. The following year, on the eve of his 30th birthday, Jones was shot dead by Chinese communist bandits with links to the NKVD, the Soviet Union’s secret police, and is buried in his hometown of Barry in Wales. Now the subject of Mr Jones, a feature film that depicts his battle against the Kremlin’s ‘fake news’ agenda of famine denial, The Man Who Knew Too Much is the first biography of Gareth Jones and reveals the remarkable yet tragically short life of this fascinating and determined Welshman who pioneered the role of investigative journalism.
There are many pictures purporting to depict the famine still circulating these days. These were in fact published by the German and American pro-Nazi Press (such as Hearst Press). These pictures however, are mainly used for shock value since the existence of starvation says nothing about its causes or its severity. They are used in order to depict the monstrosity of the famine, to win sympathy to the Holodomor theory. Naturally, the famine was a humanitarian disaster but that doesn’t make the Holodomor theory any more true.
I am not exaggerating when I say these pictures were published by the Nazis or their supporters such as the American Hearst Press. On top of that most of them are not actually taken where they claim to be. Many of the photographs are actually from World War One, the American civil war, the great depression, or the Russian civil war. Since those days this array of fraudulent “Holodomor photos” has been supplemented with pictures from the siege of Leningrad, battle of Kharkov etc. Probably the best individual study of the use of fake Holodomor photos by the far-right is D. Tottle’s Fraud, Famine and Fascism.
Despite these pictures and other material published by the nazis and their American supporters, there is no evidence–not even bad evidence–to suggest the famine was deliberate or man-made.
Gareth Jones was a Hitler associate and the story of the 'Holodomor' was fabricated by the likes of Nazis, Bandera and his OUN acolytes. All as part of the campaign to demonize the Soviet Union and launder the image of the "former" Nazis welcomed into the West after WWII, often with both of those goals being part of the same operation.
Its origins are widely credited to a Welsh man named Gareth Jones. Who was he? Jones before arriving in the Soviet Union in March of 1933, he was in nazi Germany. In an article entitled, “WITH HITLER ACROSS GERMANY” which was published on February 23rd of 1933, he outlines his experience flying on Hitler’s private plane along with other high ranking nazi officials such as Goebbels. In the piece he says of the nazi leaders, “There is nothing hard and Prussian about my fellow-passengers. They could not be more friendly and polite, even if I were a red-hot nazi myself.” Continuing, after fawning over the nazis, he says regarding Hitler: “There are two Hitlers — the natural boyish Hitler, and the Hitler who is inspired by tremendous national force, a great Hitler. It is the second Hitler who has stirred Germany to an awakening.” In a following article by Jones, he states regarding Goebbels that “He has a remarkably appealing personality, with a sense of humour and a keen brain. One feels at home with him immediately, for he is amusing and likeable.”
After leaving nazi Germany, he arrived in the Soviet Union. After arriving, Gareth Jones reported that “millions are dying of hunger”. In the article he gives multiple anecdotes of unidentified and nameless persons — devoid of any information of any backgrounds, of their class interests, etc — making claims such as “we are waiting for death”, while presenting the entirety of not only Ukraine but the entire Soviet Union, as a monolith.
There is absolutely ZERO evidence that Jones was murdered on the orders of Stalin or any other Soviet. You are telling lies. Not even the staunchly anti-Russia Wikipedia goes to the lengths you are going.
mr jones is the oppressive farmer who neglects and exploits the animals. his incompetence and cruelty trigger the rebellion that leads to the creation of “animal farm.”
Tablet? Are you serious? Under a Substack article about Zionist genocide?
As noted, the name "Holodomor" wasn't even coined until the early 1980s and only at the behest of a joint CIA-Ukraine expat effort to demonize the USSR.
In fact, the famine that spawned the myth, wasn't confined to Ukraine and affected swaths of the USSR including Kazakhstan. Why aren't the Kazakhs fabricating myths that they were uniquely targeted? That's not a rhetorical question. You need to zoom out and see the real historical picture.
The Ukrainian nationalist film “Bitter Harvest” propagates lies invented by Ukrainian nationalists. In his review Louis Proyect propagates these lies.
Proyect cites Jeff Coplon’s 1988 Village Voice article “In Search of a Soviet Holocaust: A 55-Year-Old Famine Feeds the Right.” In it Coplon shows that the leading “mainstream” anticommunist Western experts on Soviet history rejected any notion of a deliberate famine aimed at Ukrainians. They still reject it. Proyect fails to mention this fact.
There was a very serious famine in the USSR, including (but not limited to) the Ukrainian SSR, in 1932-33. But there has never been any evidence of a “Holodomor” or “deliberate famine,” and there is none today.
The “Holodomor” fiction was invented in by Ukrainian Nazi collaborators who found havens in Western Europe, Canada, and the USA after the war. An early account is Yurij Chumatskij, Why Is One Holocaust Worth More Than Others? published in Australia in 1986 by “Veterans of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army” this work is an extended attack on “Jews” for being too pro-communist.
Holodomor = Focus-grouped fiction come up with by some nazoid expat Ukrainians in Canada in the 70s and 80s.

You're spreading fascist/Nazi lies.
There is absolutely ZERO evidence that Jones was murdered on the orders of Stalin or any other Soviet. You are telling lies. Not even the staunchly anti-Russia Wikipedia goes to the lengths you are going.

Douglas Tottle traveled to Ukraine and Russia to investigate the claims and wrote an entire well-documented book about it.
mr jones is the oppressive farmer who neglects and exploits the animals. his incompetence and cruelty trigger the rebellion that leads to the creation of “animal farm.”
Thanks.
