British intelligence MI6 worked with the US CIA to commit this atrocity. Mohammad Mossadegh was a prominent figure in Iran’s secular democracy and resistance to colonialism. He nationalized the oil industry and implemented radical measures like land reform, social security and wealth redistribution.

His popular policies directly threatened Western interests, and the response of the US and British intelligence to Mossadegh in “Operation Ajax” is a manual that has been repeated against anti-colonial and anti-imperialist leaders of the Global South many times since.

The Bengal famine of 1943 killed more than three million people in eastern India. It was one of the worst losses of civilian life on the Allied side in World War Two.

There is no memorial, museum, or even a plaque, anywhere in the world to the people who died. However, a few survivors remain, and one man is determined to gather their stories before it is too late.

'Hunger stalked us'

"Many people sold their boys and girls for a little rice. Many wives and young women ran off, hand-in-hand with men they knew or didn't know."

Bijoykrishna Tripathi is describing the desperate measures people took to find food during the Bengal famine.

He is not sure of his exact age, but his voter card says he is 112. Bijoykrishna is one of the last people to remember the disaster.

He talks faintly and slowly about growing up in Midnapore, a district in Bengal. Rice was the staple food, and he remembers its price rising "by leaps and bounds" in the summer of 1942.

I'm from the global South, so I don't know minute details in the western history that well. Yes, this post should have gone under a political community, but since I'm interested in the history, I believe that this is the right place to post them.

I am interested in this part of the article:

According to the Jewish Encyclopedia, this town’s population was 80 percent Jewish at the start of the twentieth century. In contrast, at the start of World War II, only 26 percent of the town was Jewish, after Jews fled or were imprisoned and killed in gulags. Devastatingly, the remainder of the Jewish population was killed in one mass slaughter by the Nazis in 1942.

However, from this Wikipedia page:

...in the 1930s the Jews were underrepresented in the Gulag population

Not just that, but according to this page mentions how most of the pogroms were carried out by the ASFR army and UNA, although the Green and Red army were also complicit to some extent.

Anything else I should be looking out for?
