      The link was added by editors before publication to give readers a reference. We’ve updated the link.

      In the same column Stephens wrote: "Adolf Hitler invaded Poland on Sept. 1, 1939. Russia’s invasion of Poland, no less murderous, followed two weeks later." I don't think any reputable historian would agree that Russia's invasion was "no less murderous." Could you correct?

          Though, it’s specifically Poland under discussion here, I think.

          From the Wiki summary of "Bloodlands": "200,000 Poles were killed between 1939 and 1941 in occupied Poland, with each regime responsible for about half of those deaths."

          Please explain why you believe the USSR murdered more people in Poland than the Nazis did.

          I think Bret’s point is that he was murdered by Nazis, not Russians.
