0:07.0	Like the pogroms and stuff?
0:09.0	No, no, no.
0:10.0	Pogroms were ethnic, anti-Jewish for the most part.
0:14.0	Right, right.
0:15.0	No, this was the great terror during the 1930s that Stalin launched against real and imagined opponents in order to bring the country completely to its knees. Mr. David Satter. Welcome back, sir. Hi, Julian. It has been a long, long nine plus months since you've been in here. But you were here right when, right after the invasion happened, maybe a couple weeks. And I think it's fair to say there are a lot more people in america now who are aware of
