if this is his idea of a sympathetic and well-informed reading,
I would suggest that he has a great deal of mugging up on the
history of Eastern Europe 1919-1945 to do
trace the history of people who were exiled from USSR by
Stalinism, took refuge in Germany, were exiled again by
Nazism, and [if they were very lucky] found refuge in USA
does this life-trajectory remind you of anyone James?
