From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

She said 500 people were deported (in that single instance), not that 500 Jews were deported... You are misremembering or misunderstood what she said, I'm sorry to say.
I was about to ask if you have the book right in front of you and could perhaps check that what you remember reading is actually what it said. That way we could both double check that you got it right. But I somehow doubt that would happen anyway. If you have the book right now it wouldn't hurt to double check.
Another thing I was thinking of was that in what language did you read it? If you read it in Finnish, are you a native speaker or fluent? Because a misunderstanding could be down to that.
I'm honestly just trying my hardest to find out what part you are citing and why you'd come up with such a wildly different number from everyone else. I know you said you wouldn't reply anymore but it would be very helpful in figuring out this mystery.
Okay one last note: she estimated 500 Jews were deported in a single deportation. You can go ahead and read the book that you have no read and that I have if you want the privilege of asserting otherwise.
Such proud, unapologetic, arrogant lying.
Okay but really, last reply. Have a nice life. Hope you find a way to stop huffing your own farts.
Do you happen to remember where in the book did she claim that? I'm honestly trying to just figure out where in the book you read that since I don't think anyone else came off from reading it with such a drastically different number. What everyone else, such as the other book you mentioned, keeps saying is "approximately 100". It's such a big disparity that it's interesting.
I mean tbh I think you've just made a mistake and are too pigheaded to admit it. But I'm trying to give the benefit of the doubt, it might just be an honest case of misremembering. If you have the book around or otherwise remember where those numbers were claimed in it we could easily check and that'd be that.
